“This in my opinion is a must tour. It was by far the best day and excursion we took during our 2 week cruise. Jack our driver was outstanding. So much knowledge and fun to be with. The village was amazing. The drive was a little long to get to the village but well worth…”

“This tour was simply wonderful! We enjoyed learning about the wonderful culture and history and enjoyed the stunning landscape. Nicholly was our tour guide and she was knowledgeable and just a delight to be around!”

“We had a great trip with Tony, our Tour Guide. He took us to various points of interest including the Kiwi Farm, then on to Rotorua and the Maori village and back to Tauranga sharing information on the way. Our lunch stop was great- a café with a good menu and prices. All in all…”

“Great to visit Hells Gate, enjoyed our trip. Our driver Grant was a nice guy but he was difficult to locate outside of port gates. He was the only tour guide with no badge or name board, how we found him was sheer luck! There was no wi fi on the van and it was…”

“Very good guide. Exceptional experience. A venture that is a good way to see NZ away from the coast!”

“We were able to see most all the highlights of Rotorua/Tauranga on a limited time schedule. The service and tour was great! We were picked up right outside the port which made it easy for us as cruise passengers.”

“Our guide was great and the mud bath was great but we felt rushed because the only lunch available was a very slow snack bar at Hells Gate. I recommend the tour incorporate a quick lunch before instead of the garden stop so that the soaking time isn’t rushed. Otherwise 10/10”

“Nice geothermal park tour. 1 hr 20 minute drive through the countryside to get there but worth it. Park had nice signage and walking trails”

“The highlights of the tour in the description give you high expectations. In the actual tour not every featured activity was fully fulfilled. The Kuirau Park and the Māori performance were the highlights. But we didn’t get to see redwoods. It’s disappointing that we didn’t make any stop at the scenic sulphur point.”
