“This was an amazing experience and such a fun time. The guides were awesome, full of banter and committed to making sure everyone had a good time. It was very tiring but in good way as there is a lot of swimming (you have to swim from the boat to shore when you're staying overnight), but the guides were happy to transport people via kayak or paddle board if they didn't feel like swimming.

“Great experience to join this tour as it includes all the major spots in the NZ's northern area. Bus drivers are very professional and polite. Regarding to the hotel accommodation, the room is quite good. The location is very convenient. It takes about 5 minutes to reach a supermarket. One minor thing is that the kettle in the 3 star hotel is dirty and old. Paihia is definitely the place you have to go if you would like to take a break in a small town/village for few days.”
