Daryl was an awesome tour guide and made this a special experience. Hobbiton tour was very interesting and the caves were great!
Kia ora Katie, Thank you for taking the time to review our Hobbiton and Waitomo Caves tour and for the 5 star rating! We a delighted to hear Daryl was able to make your experience special and that you found the tour at Hobbiton interesting and found the caves amazing. We hope you enjoyed the rest of your trip in New Zealand and hope to see you back sometime!
Edson was a fabulous guide and driver, as were the local guides for the caves and Hobbiton. Definitely a great experience and Edson took great care of us from beginning to end!
TripAdvisor did an amazing job on this trip. My original reservation from Chewi tours was cancelled ol3 weeks before my trip. I didn’t know why they send back my payment thru my credit card. I scrambled to look for availability but most of them were booked. TripAdvisor gave me that opportunity through Flexi NZ tours. Edson was so exemplary being our guide and driver. Very knowledgeable, funny , friendly and safe driver. He was really great .
Michael was great! From the very beginning to the very end we had a wonderful time. We were a party of 12 with 6 kids and everyone had fun.
This was a well organized tour with a wonderful tour guide. Hobbiton was amazing and the whole experience was delightful. We did not feel rushed and it was great to have everything handled for us.
Louise was phenomenal super friendly and made sure that everyone felt at home away from home! Thank you for an unforgettable experience here in NZ! Would highly recommend Louise to anyone and Flexi we will definitely be back to book with you! Thank you! ~Maggie and Josh
Louise did an amazing job on the tour making things extremely easy and fun for us. I plan on using them each time I return here.
Would highly recommend both Hobbiton and Waitomo. They were very different experiences, but both were so fun! Hobbiton was so charming and fun even if you’re not a huge LOTR fan, and the Waitomo Caves were so cool to see. Our drivers/guides were Darryl and Jason, and they were both kind and knowledgeable!
Heartfelt thanks to Edson and Sandra (the guides), who helped me a lot when I was sick. They are very professional, caring, and kind. Furthermore, thanks to their colleagues for making special arrangements for each group in dealing with my case. All the best to all of you. Thanks again.
A long day and lots of driving, but the bus/van was very comfortable and the group was small. Our driver was very friendly and informative. The stops at Hobbitron and the Waitomo Caves were well worth it. This saved a day by doing both on the same day. The trip is advertised as 13 hours, but that's a worst case. For me it took just over 11 hours. This company is very organized and make sure you know exactly what to expect and when and where to meet. I highly recommend them.
Thanks so much for the wonderful review! We’re glad to hear you had a comfortable ride with us. We try to keep everything organized and smooth, so it’s great to know it worked out for you. Thanks for recommending us, and we hope to have you on another trip soon!
