Opted out of the visit to Māori village but the visit to geothermal city park was perfect for us. Overall great trip and Toby was excellent.

We booked this trip to take advantage of as much as we could in the short time that we were here. We were lucky to have had Toby as our guide, who is also the owner. After a short stop at the beach, we got to see a kiwi farm and the nice part was that nobody was trying to sell us anything- just a quick stop to see how they are grown and protected! Because our ship changed the times and someone decided to go back for her passport, we lost some time and were not able to visit the redwoods (but drove by them) but were able to visit the other important stops on the tour. Total tour time was still 7 hours and well worth it. Toby entertained us and was an excellent guide.

We loved the guide/driver’s insights and information about each of the sights we visited. Toby is great. He would take us to small, out of the way sights that were very significant for our enjoyment. Quick stops at the kiwi farm and at several key vantage points for excellent views of the countryside. It was a great day and we really appreciate his preparation for our trip.

Terry was knowledgeable and friendly that made the tour an amazing experience. Tauranga is a beautiful port with loads to offer be it nature or cultural experiences. Will be back!

Kerry was a wonderful driver/guide on your journey around Tauranga. Because of his love of New Zealand and the area where he was born, he conveyed enthusiasm and excitement for sharing the journey with us. Every element of the tour highlighted another aspect of this area. Highlights for us were a visit to a kiwi farm and the Māori cultural show. We highly recommend this all-day tour from our cruise ship with an easy meet-up to start the tour and a return right on time.
