Great tour from USA Texas

It was a small group and he was an excellent guide. These are are breathtaking and we didn't want to leave. If I could give more than five stars, I would.

Can’t miss experience from Auckland

This is a great trip. I can’t recommend it enough. If you are a LOTR fan this is a no brainer, but even if you aren’t I believe you’ll be able to enjoy the experience. Adding on the Waitomo Caves is a great experience to add onto the journey. I also have to say that our guide Liam was excellent and made the drive fun.

KimLien_T, Oct 2026

Leo driver was very good and tour guide in the cave was excellent

The pick up driver was very good and well prepared with snacks and drink and in telling us about Auckland’s history along the way. The tour guy in the cave was excellent in preparing us to every details thoroughly in explanations about the cave formation and the life of the glowing worms as well as with hot cocoa and coffee and cookies at the end of the tour. Strongly recommended.

Leslie_B, Oct 2026

Recommend this tour

We loved the whale watching experience. We saw a large Fn whale and a Minki whale( which uncharacteristically circled our boat! Crew and passengers were all very excited. The crew included 2 marine biologists who talked with us about marine life. It was a great experience

Auckland: Rotorua Tour with Waiotapu, Te Puia and Maori Haka

Sydney_B, Oct 2026

Highly recommend!!

I highly recommend this tour of the North island!! Our guide Jason was friendly, knowledgeable, and quite witty which made the trip even better! The views are breathtaking and each stop is unique and adventurous. We had coffee and meat pies, walked through the geothermal park (a major highlight) and even learned about the Maōri culture at Te Puia. This tour accommodates everything and is well worth the cost!!

Hobbiton and Waitomo Glowworm Caves Tour with Lunch from Auckland

recco3, Oct 2026

A fantastic day

Both visits exceeded my expectations. Arriving at the Hobbiton set and seeing large buses full of people leaving, I was shocked at the mere idea of touring the whole set on a bus. Instead, they took us to the starting point and let us see the whole set in complete tranquility; it was truly pleasant. The tour in the caves was very unique; this boat ride in the dark looking at all these little creatures that illuminated everything, it felt like being under the starry sky in the desert. And what about Liam, our guide? Although I unfortunately do not speak English, I can state that he is a very professional person and that not only does he have in-depth knowledge of the places, but it is clear that he also has a passion for his work, and this involves the whole group, which is a fundamental factor for the success of an organized group trip. As I had already mentioned, I unfortunately do not speak English; for this reason, I allow myself to suggest that the agency also make small brochures containing the most relevant information about the different places that are visited.

Hobbiton Movie Set Tour with lunch from Auckland

Maria_E, Oct 2026

Amazing Hobbiton

It was a wonderful experience. The set is beautiful and the fact that it is an active sheep and cattle farm makes the experience more realistic hearing the sheep as you tour the set. I would highly recommend a visit to Hobbiton. The tour company was great. Very well organized and the driver was very knowledgeable and friendly.

The truth is that it is worth the...

The truth is that it is worth taking these tours, the guide is very kind and friendly, he even considers if we stop for the bathroom halfway there. They drive very well and the vans have seat belts and are clean, depending on the tour you have snacks and water along the way. I do not regret traveling with them!

Must see visit to Hobbiton and Waitomo

We had a wonderful day with Clint. He was very knowledgeable about the tour and surrounding area. The visit to Hobbiton village was magical, just amazing! The glow worms at Waitomo caves were spectacular, never seen that before. A fair amount of driving was involved but it was nice to see so much of the countryside.

Hobbiton & Waitomo Caves Guided Tour from Auckland with Lunch

Leslie_H, Sept 2026

A magical day

Waitomo cave is absolutely beautiful, and I learned a lot while I was there. The Hobbiton Movie Set was everything I ever dreamed it would be. The attention to detail is amazing, even down to the restrooms. And the tour guides at every turn were amazing. On the bus, our guide kept us entertained and informed and I learned so much about the history of New Zealand.
