We booked for Saturday 2nd May for the afternoon session. The team were very welcoming and provided a good explanation of the tour..They had everyone kitted out in good time and provided a safety briefing. The adventure was brilliant, not too energetic, but enough to get the adrenaline flowing. Many thanks to your team for an excellent afternoon.
Kia Ora, Meander66334030361, Thanks for the awesome feedback! We’re so glad our team made you feel welcome and that the tour gave you that perfect adrenaline kick. It was a pleasure having you with us on Saturday! Hope to see you again soon!
Exceptional service and experience from start to finish. The adventure course was doable for our family ages 51 to 17 moderately fit.
Lovely to read this, thank you! We're so glad everyone had a great time on tour. Thanks for taking the time to leave us such a nice review!
Wonderful, the environment of that forest of droughts 120 years ago is magnificent
¡Gracias por visitarnos y dejar una reseña!
I joined alone from Japan!! It was such a wonderful experience! Thank you to all the staff!! Yesterday I joined the redwoods night tree walk plan and chose to visit the redwoods during the day. This course is much more thrilling than a regular treewalk!! I couldn't speak English, so I joined while using the voice interpretation function on my smartphone. There were words I didn't understand here and there, but thanks to the kind staff, I really enjoyed it. Also, the tour goers I went with helped me! At the first explanation, the insecure person fronts the line. Or I was asked to stay at the back. I was at the front of the line and had him assist me! It was heartening. I joined because I wanted to feel the nature, but I was so desperate to get the balance right that it was hard to concentrate on the scenery when I was crossing the bridge! I'm going to have muscle aches tomorrow!! On the bridge, he said it was difficult to concentrate on the scenery, but during the tour you feel the negative ions in the trees. And I felt that seeing nature from a height that you can't usually see is the most valuable thing! There was even a little bungee at the end!! Amazing. I feel like Tarzan. I felt really good about it!! Thank you very much.
この度は、日本からご参加いただき、そして心のこもった素敵なレビューを本当にありがとうございます。 ナイト・ツリーウォークを楽しんでいただき、またスタッフや他のツアー参加者のサポートによって、安心して体験していただけたことを大変嬉しく思います。言語の違いがある中で、スリリングなコースに挑戦されたことは本当に素晴らしいことです。 森の中の高い場所から自然を感じていただけたこと、そして最後の「ターザン気分」になれるサプライズも良い思い出になったようで何よりです。筋肉痛はその後いかがでしたでしょうか。 ぜひ次回は、昼間のレッドウッズも体験しにいらしてください。スタッフ一同、またお会いできる日を心より楽しみにしております。 改めまして、ご参加と温かいお言葉に心より感謝いたします。🌲✨
Safety was good. Felt Guides didn't engage with the group (of 4) Guide was ahead on next bridge while last person still coming through missing instructions. Behind guide had a sleep on bridge while a talk was going on.. tour ok
Kia Ora Susan, Thanks for taking the time to leave us a review. However, we're sorry to hear some of your feedback. Please feel free to contact us on info@treewalk.co.nz as we'd like to discuss further? We look forward to hearing from you!
I was really nervous as I've never done anything like this but the team at Altitude were fantastic. I am so glad I challenged myself and did this, it was amazing!!
Kia Ora, Angela_B, We’re thrilled you challenged yourself and had such an amazing experience! It’s wonderful to hear our Altitude team helped you feel supported along the way. Thanks for trusting us with your first adventure — we hope it’s the first of many! 🌿✨
Tanaia and Chloe were great guides showing us the amazing redwoods in Rotorua!! They were beautiful and the tour was super safe and a lot of fun! Much better up high than down low…
Kia Ora, Gianluigi_F, Thank you so much for your lovely review! We're thrilled to hear you had such a fun time exploring the Redwoods with Tenaya and Chloe – they’ll be stoked to hear your kind words. We agree, there's something extra special about experiencing the forest from up high! Thanks again for joining us – we hope to see you back in the treetops one day!
Chloe and Tori were by good luck our guides, and Graciela and I [Alberto] hope we showed our appreciation to both of them, but we wish we had thanked them more because they are our best memory from beautiful New Zealand. Chole guided us very gently the first part of the adventure and then switched, and Tori guided us at the end. Our 3-Hour Redwoods Adventure on the 21st of May 2025 was dreamy. Graciela, my wife, started the adventure feeling fearful about the heights but with Chloe and Tori's help she became confident enough to do the final high jump from the tree platform to the ground. I am only sorry that while feeling elated by the experience I forgot to give a cash tip to Chloe and Tori because they are such natural lovely persons that they appeared to be guiding us just for pleasure and we forgot they were working like we all do to pay the bills. Traveling from New York we had been told that people do not tip in New Zealand. However, later on I found that tipping was done and welcomed there too, and Graciela and I did it at other places we visited afterward. Graciela and I strongly wish that all of Chloe and Tori's plans and dreams come true!!! We know that Chloe will soon become a superb airplane pilot.
Thank you so much, Alberto and Graciela, for this truly heartwarming review! We’re thrilled to hear that your Redwoods Adventure became such a special memory, and we’ll be sure to pass your kind words along to Chloe and Tori — they’ll be over the moon to know they made such an impact. It’s wonderful to hear how Graciela’s confidence grew with their support, and we’re so glad you both felt safe and cared for throughout. Please don’t worry at all about the tipping — your appreciation and this beautiful message mean more than anything to our team. We wish you both many more adventures ahead, and we’ll certainly be cheering Chloe on as she follows her dreams of becoming a pilot! Thank you again for sharing your story with us. 🌲✨
The view was amazing! I'm scared of hights and i was trying to face my fairs! The staff Chole and Zack made me feel so safe! I had a great time in the forest connecting with nature and I think it was an awesome experience and I would definitely do it again!
Thanks for the great review, Bree! Hopefully we can welcome you back one day for another adventure :)
Such an amazing experience. T and Scott were such great guides so professional. Thanks for the extra encouragement at the end for the big jump guys.
Thank you for your kind words! We're so glad you had an amazing experience, and we'll be sure to pass your compliments on to Te and Scott. They’ll be delighted to hear they made your adventure even more special—especially with that extra encouragement for the big jump! We’d love to have you back anytime.
