Excellent Tour
We had a wonderful Te Puia tour with Charlie. Highly recommend. Prompt efficient and on time. Way better than a cruiseline tour.

Great tour experience
Pick up was great. Driver was right on time. Hanoz was knowledgeable about the area and the sites we visited on our tour. He kept the group engaged and his banter was friendly. The glow worm caves were spectacular. At Te Puia, we learned a lot about the Maōri culture. This activity seemed a bit fast-paced...wish we had more time to enjoy the area, learn their customs, and experience the hot springs.

Highly recommended
A long day but well worth it. We had John as our driver who was keen to ensure you always got the best experience - advising best places to stand when chief challenge was being performed. And volunteering to take photos. Only problem was unclear info re pickup location - map showed at opposite side of road and as was not given name of company took a little finding

Grand slam tour with Timmy
The time flew by with Timmy who gave us so much information during the tour and took us to some great spots for food and snacks. He was also quite the DJ and a very entertaining host. Waitomo is truly something that is unique and was great to learn about and we also were able to see some kiwis, see the geothermal activity and learn a lot about the Māori culture.

Fun with Marina
We had a great day with Marina - she took us to a kiwi fruit farm - it was really interesting. We saw 3 kiwi birds!!! at a sanctuary in Te Puia and saw geysers. She took us to a hot springs bath to soak our feet. She was lovely!

Our driver Ben was very good. I was disappointed that at Te puia we didnt get to see the dancers or singers or the Maori building which would have been a highlight of the tour. Instead, we spent too much time in the art gallery.

Great tour and amazing experience! It was an early day as there is quite a bit of driving but our guide stopped a couple of times and was attentive to what the group wanted. The Waitomo caves were so cool and a fun story and local guide. Te Puie was a great demonstration, geyser viewing and even got to see some kiwi birds. A long day but well worth it!!

John was an awesome guy plus the people at the village were extremely informative. We had a wonderful time visiting the village and Tauranga. Highly recommend.

Our guide Adrienne was a perfect guide for this tour. She is part Māori so she was able to explain the Māori tribes history in New Zealand which was very informative as a prelude to visiting the Te Puia, the Māori cultural center & the Kiwi conservation center. I would highly recommend this tour.

Excellent Experience
I had a great time during this tour! Our guide was knowledgeable, kind, and prioritised our comfort throughout the day.
Depending on the time of year, your small group tour could end up being fairly close to a private tour, so even better value for money!
The Waitomo caves were a dream, and learning more about Maori culture at Te Puia was exactly what I hoped for and more. We even had a chance to see a kiwi bird during our visit to the Kiwi Conservation Centre on site!
I'd highly recommend this experience for anyone looking to make the most of their time in New Zealand.
