Was a great family experience. Staff very friendly and helpful. My son was a bit nervous, but staff was there to put his mind at ease, and he ended up enjoying himself. Would definitely recommend.

Lizzy communicated with us due to the weather. Lizzy and Amy were friendly and understanding. We are novice riders and the ride was amazing, with great views of the Bay. The horses were paired to our experience and behaved extremely well. We thoroughly enjoyed our virgin ride. Even might have another go another time.

Enjoyed this experience where we had everyone from complete novice riders to experienced ones in the group. Our host catered to all needs and went out of her way to ensure everyone enjoyed themselves and stayed safe. The time went quickly with a variety of views - roadside, sea and bush riding. The horses were reasonably well behaved, and of course the swim was lots of fun. Thanks!

We had an amazing time here on the 09/06. Emma picked us up from Paihia and was super friendly. She explained everything and made us feel confident even if we were just beginners. The views were amazing, and we enjoyed riding on Moana and Ace. Thanks for the lovely experience.

my partner and I celebrated our 10 year anniversary in paihia so this was a perfect way to celebrate this milestone in our relationship. Loved every minute of it! ?

Taylor and Kate are awesome host and we learnt a lot about local birds and Kayaking and stand up paddling techniques.

We booked the winter eco experience aboard the Albatross V. Having the dolphins swim alongside our boat for 20 minutes was an amazing experience. Our skipper had a great personality, very knowledgeable and shared lots of stories and information with us. We had a wonderful day out and enjoyed the muffins. Great fun. We would highly recommend this experience.

We had a great experience with these guys. Super friendly and gave us lots of info and other places to go and visit too.

Very cool to get up and close to the Haruru Falls. Enjoyed the kayaking and Dan was informative and welcoming. Thanks for a great trip.

We have rent 2 single kayaks for 4 hours and went to the waterfall. On our way back it was high tide, so we explored mangroves. Fantastic! Because we still have plenty of time, we wanted to go and explore some islands, but rain came and we got cold. Next time! :-) Thank you Coastal Kayakers!

Wonderful time spent at this very special place. Incredible Maori performance & great food. A must do for anyone visiting NZ

Mike and Robert were amazing. Great yarns and tasty food. The sailing was ok too...it was amazing. Captain Mike is a very experienced captain and had amazing facts of all the boats in the bay and was a privilege to be able to spend the day on his vessel.

An absolute must do. Amazing guided tour and a cultural performance that gave me goosebumps.

The best cultural experience I have been to in NZ. A great history lesson. The team at Waitangi are fabulous performers & hosts. A must do when visiting the bay of Islands!

Thanks. We had a fantastic day. The ceremonies were so entertaining. It was great to have the Māori culture and history explained to us on the guided tour. We finished the day off with a hangi. Solly our Māori expert was great. I’d recommend this day to everyone visiting this area. IT’S A MUST DO!!

Had an excellent experience. Would recommend looking around the museum prior to the guided tour as it makes more sense that way. Cultural experience was fantastic and we got to take pics with the performers afterwards.

Booking online was much cheaper than the cruise excursion and the town's shuttle bus to the Treaty Grounds was fantastic. Guided tour was excellent and the headsets meant everyone could hear the guide whilst wandering around the area. The Cultural Performance was wonderful, informative and entertaining. It was a great outing.

My husband and I had a great afternoon at Waitangi Treaty Grounds. A convenient short walk from the wharf with friendly staff ready to greet you. Our guide was very knowledgeable and entertaining as he showed around the grounds and the war canoes. The new museum is fantastic with its interactive displays but best of all was the cultural performance. The team with their amazing singing and dancing were the highlight. Excellent!

Im really glad we booked the tour, got more information and insight about the treaty and the grounds and the surrounding plants. I think if we didn’t book with the tour we would’nt have a clue and much more knowledge of the surroundings. The marae/ powhiri and maori entertainment was fantastic. Such talented individuals. Definitely worth doing. Vinaka vaka levu, Sereana Bebenisala.

Was really great experience highly recommend to anyone!

A very educational experience. It is good for the kids. Highly recommended.

Had a fab afternoon at the treaty grounds. Lots to do and all the guides are very knowledgeable and friendly! Definitely join one of the guided tours and the cultural performance if you have time as they are both amazing.

It was a full day of great experience and learning about New Zealand culture and heritage! Great concert from the local Maori group. The largest war canoe built by the Maori is fascinating and a real piece of art too. All museums were great and very informative. Great and knowledgeable guides too. Highly recommend it to everyone!

I spent a good time into the Treaty of Whitiangi, really interesting guide and history, I particulary enjoyed the show of the maoris! And beautiful view of the Bay of Island ! I recommended !

I am a kiwi and I had not been to see where the Treaty was signed. I’m glad I did it. If you are a resident you need to take the time and go visit the most iconic place where a fundamental moment in time happened for our country. Believe me there is lots to learn. I have read and studied the treaty and I still learnt more. Go with an open mind and heart. You will be surprised.

Awesome guided tour best part of our journey especially the performance ... love love love yous

The day pass kicked off with the Cultural Performance. This was a high energy and fun show presented by a very talented team of Maori performers. A guided tour took us through the grounds and provided a knowledgeable and informative overview of the local history, culture and of regional and national heritage. A pleasant bite to eat at the cafe and then a walk through the museum which depicts a chronological history of discovery, colonisation, conflict and national unification. Well worth a visit, highly recommend it.

Joey our guide was excellent in the way he told us all about Waitangi - the treaty, the war canoe, the Treaty house and The Flagstaff. We also liked the way he referred to us Aussies as friends and Allies. We really enjoyed the cultural performance especially the way everything they did was explained to us. The museum was well laid out and interesting - we could’ve spent a long time there. The whole experience was well worth our entry fee.

If you come to the Bay of Islands visiting the Treaty grounds at Waitangi are a MUST! Ive been numerous times and every time I see something different, I learn a bit more each time and have the best day. Our guide John was amazing so informative and had all of our attention the whole time. We finished our day with the cultural experience listening, watching and learning about waiata, poi and taiaha. See you all again soon!

What an amazing day well spent at the Waitangi Treaty Grounds. I loved the relaxed non commercial cultural show and our tour guide was informative and knowledgeable and funny. After a wonderful lunch at the whare Kai we headed into the museum...and emerged 3 hours later with a whole collection of new facts and thoughts. What an awesome way to pass a wet Sunday.

Found my visit to the treaty grounds really interesting. It's worth paying the extra for a guided tour, I don't know where I'd have begun otherwise. The cultural performance was also excellent. The grounds are really pretty with excellent views of the Bay.

The tour was informative & the cultural performance was good. My toddlers actually sat through it which was a bonus. Museum was excellent and I would have spent hours there if I didn’t have little kids in tow. The staff couldn’t find my booking but sorted it out with no dramas and one of the ladies was really helpful when we were a few minutes late for the tour. They’ve definitely poured some $$ into this place.

I had the most enjoyable time. The mix of history, culture and entertainment were amazing. The natural landscapes, facilities and attitudes of all people involved are to be commended. What an amazing presentation and representation of New Zealand. Thank you for an enjoyable day.

The Museum’s static displays are very informative and are well put together - a credit to the volunteers who o his n. Shoe string budget. Th NZ government shoul be more supportive it’s finding. The tour guide was very entertaining and knowledgeable. The cultural performance was excellent and very professional. A great day out for all visitors to obtain a short history lesson on New Zealand - with enough detail to keep it real and interesting
