Thanks for your review, we will pass on your regards to St Michael!
Great tour with very informative guide. Easy way to get your bearings when you have limited time. Thoroughly enjoyed.
they are very considerate and approachable . Well recommended for tourists.
Right from the start to the finish we were given the greatest treatment.
So I had one day to kill in Windy Welly but didn't have a rental car or any idea about the bus routes so I took the Hop On/Off bus after going to the 2 hr Weta Tour (they share the same bus pickup route). I got to see a little bit of Welly and our tour guide had lots of stories to share. I got off on the cable car stop since I had already been to the oriental bay and te papa museum previously. I went to watch a show in the observatory which was a short walk from the cable car and then rode down to the CBD.
