Great Experience.. it’s already a journey before the hobbiton journey even started in Alexandrea Farm.. We were really entertained with the stories from Andre in almost all the landmarks along the way.. thumbs up to Andre and we will definitely try to find him again whenever we’re back in Auckland

가는 길도 예쁘고 구경하는 재미가 쏠쏠함 양이며 말이며 소며... 도착할때까지 가이드가 쉬지않고 가이딩 하는데 조금 말을 줄이셔도 될듯... 날씨가 정말 중요함 호빗튼은 막찍어도 그림같고 영화속에 들어와있는것같고 와이토모도 신비하고 재밌는 경험이었음. 다만 모두 영어가이드라 견문의 차이는 있을듯 호빗튼과 와이토모에서도 자체 투어가이드가 있고 모두 친절하고 전문적이었다. 특히 와이토모 마오리 가이드 (남자) 노래도 불러줬는데 인상깊었다. 평일이고 한국인은 나뿐이라 조금 외로웠지만ㅋㅋ 추천!

Amazing day trip! Worth every cent!

I had a perfect day, from start to finish. I loved the drivers commentary, he (Allan I think) was very knowledgeable about basically everything and kept me entertained during the bus ride. Hobbiton was amazing and the lunch was very yummy. Waitomo Caves was amazing too! All in all, don't think twice about going on this tour, just do it! You will be happy you did!

Spectacular experience!

We - a group of seven people plus our tour guide Kreig - had gone to Hobbiton last April 10, and despite the rainy weather, I have no regrets. Definitely worth the price because the whole experience, from pick up to drop off, was very personalised. Kreig, our tour guide, was a very enthusiastic, friendly and approachable guy who shared a lot of his knowledge. There were some snacks, refreshments and entertainment in the van that we used. Hobbiton itself looked spectacular whatever weather it is, I assure you. Glad we didn’t cancel our bookings at the last minute. Totally recommend Cheeky Kiwi Travel And its team! Thanks for the experience, you guys!

It was truly magical. Grant, our driver, was very nice and shared a lot of info about New Zealand and Hobbiton. He also helped me to take some photos. Our movie set guide Josh was very nice as well and also took a photo of me as well as other lovely people taking the tour with me. Overall it was an amazing tour and I would recommend it to everyone. The entire movie set has such lovely atmosphere and the hobbit holes (houses) are so adorable and beautifully done. I would just appreciate to have more time to just wander around because I take very long to take photos and videos and I was at the end of our group most of the time and probably missed some info Josh was sharing. But I understand that there are a lot of people coming to this place so we can’t really spend half of the day there. Josh never rushed us so it was up to us to catch up with the group or stay behind a few times to take amazing shots and admire the houses a little bit longer.

Glow-worm Treat

What a treat! Novice kayakers well taken care of and given an informative river tour by friendly and knowledgeable guides. It was cloudy so no stars were visible but the glow-worms more than made up for it. Would do it again without question and highly recommend to others. Just remember that you may get wet - it is a river after all!

That was the best kayak tour I (We) 've had so far. Not only was the route beautiful, it was a perfect mix of stops, paddling and information. The tour leader was more entertaining than my companion (no offense) and made the experience perfect with his jokes and knowledge. If i could, I would give 6 star! They are also providing everything you could possibly need, so even if you d show up in a sports bra, you ll be fine!

Awesome glow worm tour

This was the highlight of our trip in the north island. Our guide was knowledgeable, friendly and funny. Cannot say enough good things about the experience, our guide or the company itself. They went above and beyond to make our tour memorable. Seeing the glow worms on a kayak, at night in a stunning gorge is definitely a must do if you are on the north island. We had the most wonderful time. Thank you so much to the team at Riverside Adventures. Mike and his SIL were the best!!!!!

Highly recommend. Professionally guided, conscientious of safety and a wonderful experience in nature. Tandem kayak tour was fun and informed us of the river's history. Our guide was kind, funny and pointed out many unique landmarks or rather "former" landmarks in the river and surrounding areas. He told stories that helped us better understand how very special that area of NZ is. We debarked at a mid-point for sunset, small snacks and more educational sharing. Our evening kayak returning through the silence of the dark canyon was magical. It was sprinkled with glow worms glowing and several small mountain drips/waterfalls that added musical ambience. Our evening was a clear sky, and filled with stars and their reflections. Only caution... we were misguided by both Apple and Google Maps. Neither got us to the correct location. Team was helpful when we called, but there is limited cell reception and our inconvenience set us back in time and miles of gas to drive for reception for instruction. Do keep going 1/4 +mile past the point map says you have arrived. Vendor Sign is tasteful, but not large on opposite side of launch off road.

We absolutely loved the kayak tour last night! Steve was a brilliant guide - very knowledgable and friendly and made everyone feel very safe throughout the experience. Others on the tour were good fun too and the glow worms themselves were spectacular - a truly memorable experience! Would recommend to anyone. Thanks a lot!
