This place is awesome for some adventure, we had only booked for the 4wd safari but the lady st the front counter was very helpful and we ended up doing the go karts as well, we did a 10min go kart ride 1st there were 3 others in this group which made it allot more fun, the karts were great the instructors were great to Franky was learning the ropes but did a great job!! The go karts were awesome great speed and handled well only complaint is I want more!!! Then we went and did the 4wd safari We had Franky again learning and Cori both these guys are great Cori’s knowledge was fantastic and if you listen and do as the instructors say it’s a lot better experience as they know what the cars can and can’t do, great bunch of guys awesome and thanks allot we’ll be back!!!! They also have a clay bird shooting range and a 4wd monster safari were you are the passenger
Bloody brilliant . Perfect Peter and Terrible Tanya had 2 goes a couple of days ago. Was soooo good but Perfect Peter felt the need to improve his time .so we went back again yesterday. The guys gave him advice which he took and improved his lap time by 6 seconds. ( with metal wrists) 1.17 seconds ??
Our 4 grandsons were buzzing after this amazing experience. Thanks Dom for giving them the amazing ride.
Best experience on karts I've had. The staff were awesome, informative and let you go hard. You knew they would take care of things if they got out of hand, so that safety precaution was good to know they're there if needed. The quality of the karts were great but then I can only compare them to indoor carts, where there is NO comparison in the end. I recommend to EVERYONE to get out there and have a blat!
I had an amazing time on this activity, it was great fun and the trail just kept getting better and better. I would highly recommend this activity ?
Great fun on the bush safari, couldn't wipe the smiles off the boys faces!
We had the pleasure of being the only ones in this group and it was ALOT of fun for us! Big thanks to Curtis for his good humour top bloke. Well worth the short drive out of town for.
Absolutely awesome experience. It is a must do! I will be back for sure.
Awesome experience for beginners. Wife and kids loved it.
Make sure it is on your to do list. My daughter enjoyed every climb, hang, and splash although she did close her eyes on the luge haha. The instructor was great too. We were greeted warmly and they knew who we were when we walked through. Off roading can be for males and females so def give it a go. I was mesmerized with the monster 4 x 4 that I will do next trip around. The course isn’t too extreme but there are other options it was just right for my daughter and myself to have some fun.
It was a great experience. Friendly staff. Very entertaining driver.
Awesome experience friendly staff a must to do in rotorua
Fantastic journey on the little computer controlled rail car with commentary though spectacular scenery.
It was a lovely experience for the whole family and especially the kids enjoyed it a lot.
Awesome experience almost didn't do it but so glad we did
A really interesting way of travelling through the countryside around Lake Roturua in the peace of your own Rail cruiser with only the sound of the birds and track. Such a brilliant way of making use of an old railway track taking us into the hidden depths of the woodland, farms to view the different indigenous species of plants and trees. Perfect for all ages in all weathers protected from direct sun but open at the sides but should it rain you can just drop the sides. The organisers are very welcoming inviting you to have tea,coffee or chocolate before you depart whilst sitting watching a video showing the development of the project.
Breathtaking views and scenery, friendly staff, awesome rail carts!!!
All credit to these owners who have revived this Railway to make it a lovely trip through Bush and views of the lake. The carts are comfortable and make this a journey with a difference. Recommended
A lovely experience with my wife, hearing all the history and how far it has come to this point.
Take a scenic drive out to Mamuki railway station- 20 mins from Rotorua. Jump on your rail car and ride through the hills taking in the views. Great fun for everyone! Would absolutely do it again.
Very impressed with the Staff and set up. Rail experience very enjoyable.
We thoroughly enjoyed the Rotorua Rail Cruising. It was well run by enthusiastic staff who took very good care of everyone. The scenery was stunning and the commentary informative. A unique experience.
Fantastic activity that lets you see some beautiful country scenes. Shelley was a fantastic host and we were made extremally welcome. Loved the history of the log station also.
Great ride, perfect for the whole family. Informative commentary, friendly staff. Thanks for this experience.
Fun experience. Awesome way to see the scenery. Staff were wonderful and were very friendly.
The staff are down-to-earth and really friendly and professional. Even on a rainy day it was a lovely trip.
We thoroughly enjoyed the Railcruising adventure through the Dansey conservation area. Despite a little light rain the journey was fascinating and made all the more special by the onboard commentary and steamy jungle atmosphere. The experience could be improved by offering merchandise and a video history of the line prior to the cessation of service by NZ Railways
This was an amazing experience. There were 4 of us together and we rode in one cart. The views and the experience was fantastic. We all would highly recommend this trip.
This was a really lovely family friendly adventure in unique style. Pack a picnic and dress warm! Great team running this I hope it continues and expands.
What a wonderful and unique experience we had! Beautiful view and great job! I believe this is a “must do “ at Rotorua!
Booked to go Railcruising with my husband and Dad for Fathers Day, arrived and had safety briefing, allocated to our railcruiser for the trip from the Mamaku station out to Tarukenga station, the views were amazing even though the weather was not great, you are in the railcruiser with waterproof drop down sides, so the views are unobstructed whatever the weather. Thoroughly enjoyed by all and the staff were all very friendly and helpful. Would recommend to all, suitable for all age groups.
