He was great at setting a tone of stepping into the world and embracing it Nicoleta M2025-04-22Verified Must see! Recommend booking via „Auckland & Beyond Tours“ We did our tour with the provider „Auckland & Beyond Tours“ and definitely recommend! 💛Such a great trip, our guide Dave was kind, helpful and funny, and shared a lot of knowledge on the way, he made this trip so much more exciting and comfortable. The Hobbiton tour was such an incredible experience, even if you don’t know the movies this is definitely worth seeing! Knowing the movies definitely gives you the extra adrenaline and emotion kick! 😄 Waitomo glowworm cave experience was also very nice and a great way to end the day. We appreciated that we started the day at 6am (pickup from the hotel and we had a quick breakfast stop on the way) and were able to come back relatively early, most other tour providers start at 7-ish. Had enough (but not too much so it gets boring) time for a bit of shooing an breaks in between. Was an amazing day 💛 thanks everyone! Oh and also I forgot y phone on the bus 😞 but received it back on the same evening, it was taken care of very quickly. Apologies again for the inconvenience 🙈 Namnam L2025-04-21Verified Nice trip It was a fun and memorable experience! Our guide Adil was very professional and enthusiastic, making the whole trip even more exciting. He introduced us to a lot of interesting knowledge and cold-blooded little stories about New Zealand, which was really eye-opening. From stunning natural scenery and rich Maori culture to unique wildlife and some lovely local customs, every moment is filled with freshness and surprise. The whole trip was organized so that we could get a deeper understanding and appreciation of the beauty. Jessica K2025-04-17Verified Informative and fun! We were picked up by our amazing guide Dave in a very spacious vehicle with about 6 other people. As we drove, Dave provided us with commentary on the history of Auckland and gave us key tips on where to stand or sit on the bus when we got to Hobbiton for the best views. He arrived early either enough time for us to stretch our legs and have a snack before our tour bus came. The tour itself was lovely and perfect for both avid and casual LoTR fans. After a drink at the Green Dragon, my brother and I ended up missing our tour bus back to the rest stop. Staff got us on another bus 20 mins later and we were so worried Dave may have left without us! But luckily he did not give up on us and had waited with the rest of our group. On the way back, he provided cookies, water, a stop overlooking a beautiful lake for pictures, and a stop for ice cream. I usually get sick on car rides, especially with all these hills, but Dave's driving was smooth there and back. Really appreciated his professionalism, sense of humor, and knowledge. Yadira P2025-04-14Verified On point Pick up on time. Love it because it was a small group in a luxury van. No lost time in non sense stops. Raymond our tour guide was amazing!Load more
