Tarawera water taxi ride-
It was easy to book and the staff were friendly and helpful. The short history talk was worthwhile though a little hard to hear the detail. The answers to the questions from our group were enlightening even for locals amongst us.

Informative, Friendly and Funny
Thanks for an awesome experience guys. I loved listening to the local stories. The friendly chit chat in the shuttle and informative session on the water taxi was much appreciated. Would totally recommend walking the Tarawera Trail using the Water Taxi to everyone.

Water Taxi
Great experience on the water taxi and great service. There was a confusion whether morning or afternoon passes had been purchased.
