Bought this experience as a birthday present and it was perfect. Beautiful views, even on an overcast day. Pilot Cameron was great. I highly recommend it!
I had the most amazing experience, I recommend this place to everyone. Food was 10 out of 10, as well as the service. All meals were delicious and beautifully served.
Th Restaurant was beautiful with nice atmosphere. We ordered several dishes from the entrée, main and desserts. They were all very tasty and good portions. My favourites were the chicken supreme and eton mess. The service staff very very friendly.
Although a bit quite place then usual restaurants. But the food was great and very big portions. We ordered Sea food Laksa and Mee goreng with chicken for Mains and Chicken karage for starters. Everything was yummy.
Thoroughly enjoyed the experience, thank you so much!
The team were very friendly and helpful. It was a nice day out and we saw lots of dolphins but no whales. The crew decided it wasn’t enough ans that we deserved a return voucher so we can come back again anytime. It was a bumpy ride so make sure you bring some weatherproof clothing.
What a great afternoon we spent with skipper Alex and crew Elliot, Jordan and Holly. We helped raise and lower the sails and we all got a chance to rake the helm, whilst racing around the bay. Alex told as lots about the boat and sailing tips too. This was an experience I will never forget!
Had an amazing time. The crew and the service was top class. Would highly recommend it to anyone!!!
Our guide Kraig is very knowledgeable and friendly. Small group tour allows our guide to cater more time to the intinary which provides better experience than big tour bus and flexi tour. Will definitely book other tour which cheeckykiwitour
It’s a very impressive fishing trip, highly recommended!
Really great 2 hours on America's cup Yacht. Good safety briefing followed by gentle exit from the harbour. Got people involved on the grinders to get the sails up then we were off. Breeze picked up as we got out of the harbour and had Gennicker up down wind. Lots of us allowed to have a go on the wheel. Crew all competent sailors who let you be as involved as you wanted to be. Great beat on the way back in. Another one off the bucket list. Just need to get some foiling up to date boats for a bang up to date experience of a lifetime.
Getting the sky tower entry is a nice bonus. 48hrs cover the whole city. Just wish the last bus is at 6pm rather than 4pm. On my trip to Auckland unfortunately I could Only use bookme once as the deals would be on the other day.
Definitely a must do in Auckland. Well planned and brilliantly excecuted. Perfect host!!
Easy fun family day. We've done both the safari and dinosaur courses, personally I think the dinosaur was more enjoyable.
Had dinner before an event. We were greeted by lovely front of house staff. The staff were polite and attentive. The food was delicious and full of flavour. The chicken and lamb were both tender and juicy. The jalapeno poppers were crispy and crunchy. The creme brulee wasn't too sweet and had the classic crunchy topping. Would definitely recommend dining here.
Really great tour with lots of information. Not as much walking as I expected though there was way more information than expected. Thanks Mike. I would recommend to anyone who would like a history lesson and not just on volcanos.
This morning tour covered four of Auckland’s more than fifty volcanoes. As a small group tour it covered all the bases with short hikes to the top of each crater and the experience of spectacular views of Auckland and it’s hinterland. Driver and guide, Mike, was affable and helpful and conveyed his knowledge of the Auckland volcanic field in layman’s language that was easily comprehensible to his passengers. A great day out!
Tour guide Mike met us at the CBD meeting point & escorted us in his van for the next few hours. He showed us Pupuke Crater Lake, Coastal Lava Walk, North Head Volcano & Tunnels, Mt Victoria Volcano Auckland is situated at a volcanic landscape. These tours are a must-see which helps the visitor learn & understand its environmental history & how it affected life, before and now. Former military areas at North Head Volcano was most interesting. Military took advantage of these mounds & built artillery areas with lookouts during wars of previous times. For me personally, the most exciting & appreciative aspect of this tour was to walk on hardened lava.
The weather was excellent when I went there in November. The clear blue skies and beautiful beach makes it a great day for Sight Seeing and having a dip at the beach. The only downside was that the time spent at Cathedral Cove was a little short as Cathedral Cove was so beautiful.
가이드분 아주 친절하고 코로만델에서 갈 만한 곳 거의 다 데리고 가줌. 코스 : hot water beach(삽들고 흙파서 구덩이 만들어서 뜨신 물 체험)->cathedral cove(주차장에 내려서 왕복 한시간 정도 걸음 등산 같다 좀... 하지만 그럴 가치 충분)->shakespear 머시기->mount paaku(산 좀 올라가는데 이십분 정도? 전망 예쁨) 처음 두시간 정도 가다가 카페에 내려주는데 물 꼭 사야함. 큰걸로.... 거기 아니면 집 갈때까지 살 곳이 마땅찮고 작열하는 태양에 목구녕이 타들어감;;; cathedral cove 너무 예쁘고 해수욕 하기도 좋음. 선크림 허옇게 떡칠하시길! 뉴질랜드 여행에서 잊지 못할 기억 중 하나가 될 거 같다. thank you, clay:)
Best day ever!
Great family activity, did the bach theme, will be doing the other themes as well.
It was an amazing tour! We really had fun, our tour guide Grant was very accommodating and he really look after us very well. It was a very good day!
Friendly and helpful driver/tour guide. Awesome and fantastic scenery at Hobbiton Movie Set. Must try this whenever travel in Auckland.
Really great experience and a road trip to the magical Hobitton movie site. Enjoyed it and cross it off the bucket list.
So much fun, challenging enough and kept us on our toes! Was great for both me and my husband and my mum and her partner (in their 50’s). Can’t wait to do our next room!
Family event, so every chance we would get too competitive, but amazing team work meant we all enjoyed and out in under the hour
Loved it , it covered all major landmarks of Auckland , will recommend highly to all people who want to cover Auckland’s major attraction in a single day. The driver and ticket collectors were awesome and responsive.
Clay is very friendly and really nice person. We had the best tour guide ever! We enjoyed the beautiful scenery of Coromandel island, Cathedral Cove and Hot Water Beach. It's awesome. Thank you very much for a wonderful day trip!
Our bus driver/ tour guide, Kenny was extremely friendly. Both him and the tour guides and captain on the cruise were great and gave us so much information about the Bay of Islands. Super happy we got to see Dolphins and go through the Hole in a Rock. Absolutely worth it! Thank you for a great tour :)
Had an amazing day trip to Cathedral Cove and Hot water beach. Our guide gabriel was very knowledable and took us to these places considering the tide conditions, so that we can make the best of our time at these 2 amazing locations which are the gems of the coromandel peninsula. Definitely recommended
Soy de Chile y nos encanto el tour. Solo deben considerar el tiempo de viaje y que hay una gran cantidad de curvas que pueden marearte un poco. Quien condujo fue muy amable en todo sentido. Totalmente recomendado.
Amazing tour ,great guide with a huge knowledge and also kind. Perfect!
This day trip was a cool experience. Clay helped me make a very wonderful day trip. So kind and friendly. I had a great time in the very nice beach. I absolutely recommend.
Chris is very good driver and a the other driver as well. They are wonderful people I really enjoy my time talking with them. Make sure to take your power bank with you and small snacks.
Definitely book this day ! Such an incredible day with beautiful views and met nice people:) lovely tour guide Rach made the experience fun and more enjoyable with her fun and kind nature:)
This was a fantastic day. our Guide was knowledgable and fun he obviously had a passion for the country and Maori history. The caves were breathtaking and Rotorua was a spectacular as I imagined with the Cultural experience being and added bonus. Brilliant
