A must do for Lord of the Rings fans
Fantastic! This is a must-do New Zealand experience. Hobbiton is awesome, and the glow-worm cave defies description. Liam from the Cheeky Kiwi was a super guide and driver. He added a lot of local color and cultural background in addition to being knowledgeable about our destinations.

It was all made pleasant...
It was all made pleasant by Tom, our tour guide, who was accommodating to our needs. He understand the level of intensity we could handle and made sure to alter the trip to our needs. We appreciated that. He added the simple gesture of providing us with a snack with a bottle of water each. Thank you, Tim. All the best, Vimala.

What an amazing personal...
What an amazing personal tour! Our guide Jonglok made the trip so special for us. He never rushed us and took several great photos of us along the way-a personal touch we very much appreciated! We also appreciated his communication with us as we prepared to meet him for our trip and letting us know of his arrival. We highly recommend Jonglok and this private tour!

Wonderful and breathtaking
Our guide Jaime, was superb! He had to change course a few times. The first was when the road closed, due to an accident and we couldn’t go through to get to Cathedral Cove. So, he drove us to this little marina area and we are lunch a bit early. The second was when we arrived and just for myself he noticed I was having a few physical challenges with Cathedral Cove. It was quite a hike, and involved quite a few stairs. So, if you have difficulty with stairs, I suggest you skip this activity, or find one that will ferry you after you have walked down. Jaime was flexible with time so that when I finally arrived I got to enjoy some time at the cove. He was also a wealth of information about the area as well as livestock, farming, and even the reindeer that reside in the mountains. The second portion of our tour was to the hot water beach. Jaime again was very flexible with timing ensuring everyone got to have a fabulous time!

Coast, countryside, island retreats—Auckland has it all. It’s no surprise that New Zealand’s largest city offers plenty of choice for day-trippers. Auckland day trips will take you to black-sand beaches, ancient Kauri forests, and idyllic vineyards, often all in one day. If you want to venture further afield, many North Island highlights are also within day-trip distance of Auckland. Peek inside Hobbit holes as you tour a Lord of the Rings movie set, marvel at the geothermal wonders of Rotorua, or go rafting along an underground river and gaze up at a canopy of glittering glowworms.
