    Onny was a very informative and friendly guide! He gave a lot of helpful insight to the islands history as well as everyday life. He’s open to deviating from the schedule as the group feels too!

    Worth the trip to the island for a day!!!

    Knowledge and charm!

    Lynn_M, Feb 2020
    Steve gave us a fantastic experience in Waiheke. He met us promptly at the ferry, answered hundreds of our questions, had tons of local knowledge and insight and charm. He obviously enjoys what he does and is proud of his island paradise. We never felt rushed nor neglected. The Man of War beach and wine tasting were off the beaten path (no exaggeration there) but a wonderful experience. He took us to the best ice cream shop on the island and then dropped us off at the Mudbrick winery where we had arranged to dine. But not before touring us through the property so we knew our way around. There were four of us touring and we were comfortable in his SUV. He was very accommodating throughout the day. We would highly recommend Steve. Great value for your money.

    Thank you so much for your kind review. It was very enjoyable spending the day with you all and I'm happy you enjoyed exploring the island with me. Best wishes Steve

    FreedomTours onky way to go

    Steve our personal guide and owner of Freedomtours was wonderful, very informative, flexible to your personal itinerary. Nothing was too much trouble. Plus he has a nice airconditioned 4×4 to whizz you about Waiheke. I thoroughly reccomend you use him for your next visit to the island.

    Response from Host, Feb 2020

    Many thanks for the great review! It was lovely to get to know you on the tour and I'm very pleased you had an enjoyable time. Best wishes! Steve
