A brilliant tour!

I was so happy to meet good guides and members in New Zealand, my first time visiting!💕 The fireflies I met at Waitomo Caves were like stars falling from the sky, and I enjoyed Hobbiton and Hamilton Gardens thanks to the clear skies! It was a more memorable trip because the guide explained New Zealand's history and the places we visited well like Dr. Cheokcheok! I'll probably come back next time I visit again! Thank you for making it a great trip!!👍

It was great to see so much in one day!

It was a trip I took with friends, and I was very satisfied. It was a fruitful day trip as the guide gave detailed explanations, took lots of pictures, and pointed out key points for each place. It was great to see so much in one day! I had a good night's sleep thanks to my safe driving. thank you :)

Comfortable guide tours

Planning a trip in Korea... I blinked and didn't make a reservation and searched for the local tour of Buryaburiya. Fortunately this spot remained and was well used. The cave was good, but it wasn't a photo or video footage. Hobbit Village was really great. The weather only rains while moving, and the sun shines during observation. It was a beautiful scene. It was good that there wasn't a lot of people. Finally, the clear water of the Blue Springs was really a hilling walking course. The guide was also very slim and a good person was assigned so that our three families were able to travel very comfortably. We give you a lot of information and personal stories about New Zealand's social and economic situation. Above all, my child is eight years old, so I was so grateful that he looked beautiful even when he sometimes made strange sounds or acts. And when we returned, we were very grateful for helping our three tired families sleep and move. Thank you for making good memories for our three families. Always be healthy and win!

Great locations, disappointing drive

The Glowworm Caves and Hobbiton were outstanding experiences. Unfortunately our driver Sharma texted his change in arrival time to us at almost 11:00pm the night before our tour after we were asleep. Also during our tour he pulled the car to the side of the very busy motorway to take a telephone call, drove above the speed limit and did not seem to know much about the areas we drove through. He was courteous but silent most of the day.

Oh, I apologize about he behavior during the tour. He suppose not to do..

fantastic trip with steven bong

It was so grateful to meet steven bong. He gave us a lot of information of traveling in Newzealand not only in auckland but whole part of newzealand, so that we could enjoy our whole trip! :-) He also gave us some options to make our tour colourful. (have a lunch at other place, grab some coffee in the way and etc) He was the best guide I've ever met.

Operator response

Thanks for the great review for us. It was great to guide you as well. Hoped you had a good memory of New Zealand.

Hobiton and Itomo Stephon reviews

I booked the same item at Cheeky kiwi travel in September for a cheaper price, but it was suddenly cancelled just before the trip in December. I got in touch with Stephon when I was embarrassed, and thanks to my lovely guide, I had a great time with him. In fact, I thought it was a little expensive, but today it was a quality tour that was enough! It was a very fun and happy time. I would like to say thank you very much to Joseph Guide. I also gave you a lot of New Zealand honey tips and I think I was able to enjoy it twice as much!!! May you thrive!!

Unforgettable one-day tour by Stephen Guide :)

The Hobbit Village and the Whitomo Cave Tour with Stephen Guide. When the tour was requested, I asked for a Korean guide and went on tour with Stephen. It was so nice to pick up your stay at the Auckland hostel and it was so good to be able to use your private tour schedule smoothly. Steve Guide took care of us who know nothing about New Zealand! Thanks to the guide, we were able to travel well around the corner and look forward to the photos taken by the guide! On the way home, I talked about Korean cuisine, and this seems to be an unforgettable memory. I was very impressed by recommending a route or place after the Hikhik tour. The travel service is even more exciting and YouTube subscribes!

저도 덕분에 즐거웠습니다. 마운트 쿡에서 가까이 있었는데 못만나서 조금 아쉬웠는데 ㅎㅎ 안타까운 날씨 였지만 두분의 행복한 앞길을 위해 늘 기도하겠습니다. 또 만날날을 기대하며 늘 행복하세요~

The best travel spot I've ever been in NZ

First, we went to Hobbiton. From there, we saw lots of Hobbit houses. There were lots of clothes hanging from the dryer. It was very cute because it was very small and was looking just like clothes that hobbits would wear. Second, we went to bluesprings. The water's color was amazing and it was very beautiful. It was green, blue,and it was a little bit yellow. It was the best water I've ever seen in my life! Third we went to a cave with a bunch of glowworms living there. It was amazing! This was the first time i saw it! I loved it! I really recommand you to buy this. This is not a waste of money and it is very worth it!
