Reviews from real travellers
Public reviews of the operators who run these tours, shown as excerpts with the source on each.
"The Waitomo Caves are breathtaking natural attractions and stunning limestone formation. A guided boat ride through the Glowworm Caves creates a peaceful and unforgettable experience as thousands of tiny lights sparkled overhead like a star filled sky. Just wonderful!"
"This trail from Arrowtown to Queenstown is absolutely stunning. Arrowtown itself is worth at least an hour to visit before you set off. The views are just once in a lifetime. Trail is well marked and the team are great."
"Geysers, hot springs and boiling mudpools as you expect were all great but the bonuses are seeing kiwis and learing about Maori craftwork!"
"The mud bath was a great experience Our skin feels amazing afterwards We loved trying out all the pools after the mud bath"
"Loved the whole experience. Easy check in process and super friendly staff. We had a very small group so wait time at each platform was very minimal. Such a scenic, beautiful spot to zipline."
"Had a fantastic time on this trip. Thoroughly recommend. Was an experience that we won't forget. The guide was great - friendly, knowledgeable and patient. The views spectacular. We feed the baby lambs. Saw the nesting and swimming penguins. Couldn't have asked for more."
