Delicious food and lovely service, nice sunny outdoor area too. Look forward to getting back there!!
A great place to catch up with friend and enjoy amazing service and delicious food!!
Service was amazing. Food was good too. Love the little outdoor area. I loved my salmon bene dish. Highly recommend. Thank you.
Friendly and helpful staff. Great customer service. Tasty food. My only comments if I was being fussy are; a Large sized drink is slightly smaller then I expected. Also, the hash browns in the big breakfast were more like thick hash fingers. In saying that, they were delicious so I was still happy. I recommend the creamy mushrooms.
Delicious pizzas as always! The sides were also superb and in big servings. Amazing service. The lady owner was friendly, helpful and a delight to chat with. We would love to dine in again! :)
Good taste, i love the decor as well
It was an excellent experience. The staffs were extremely friendly and helpful. We saw a lot of dolphins, a blue shark, a adorable blue penguin and also some Jesus bird. It was an awesome day.
Had a very good time with these guys! Apart from the ziplining itself and stunning views, we got to learn a lot about the forest itself as well as native birds and got some insights into the Māori culture. I felt safe at all times and absolutely loved the fact that each of us could plant a tree too! Thanks for a great time! Definitely recommend this to anyone keen!
We went to our Rotorua adventure with Rotorua Rafting and they provided a surreal experience. The setting is serene and the forest and the Kaituna river valley looks like out of a movie! Our guide Jure was excellent and helped us do some little stunts safely on the river and guided us well through the rapids and the 7 metre waterfalls was the most spectacular moment! 5 stars all around!
Amazing Experience
Our tour was cancelled due to the rough sea condition. Luckily the company arranged me for the tour next day. The sea was still rough, we couldnt get down with the dolphins, but we did see quite a few of them. Would try dolphin swim again if i have a chance to visit NZ again.
Very nice place and friendly stuff
We enjoyed ourselves and would definitely recommend the experience
Honestly one of the most exciting things I have ever done. So much fun. Elvis was a great guide and made the experience so good. At no point did I feel unsafe (a little nervous maybe though!). I would have no hesitation recommending this to anyone that was thinking about going. It was my first time going rafting and I now cannot wait to go again. Got some great photos as well. Seriously, just book it now!
Mean as trip! Instructors were hella supportive by calming nerves and offering precise instructions but best yet they were hella entertaining *SPOILERS* Kaituna river wise the views were astounding, opportunities to jump off the side, hold on and rip a few rapids outside the raft 007 style. If you flip, the boys keep it professional and keep you safe 100% Chur fellas! Hope to you again!
First time rafting and had a great time will definitely be back! Great instructions and just a fun time on the rapids. We didn't flip on the waterfall either! Highly recommend.
So cool!!! Thank you guys
It was fun and nice. brought a friend who doesn't know how to swim and she enjoyed it. She was nervous at the beginning but not after once we have gone through a few practice in the river. Oeion ( pronounced as owen ) was our guide of the day. He did the briefing in a very relax and funny way but having all the safety points and message highlighted to us. It was a smooth sailing for our ride, went through the small water fall and the big ones and played on the water for fun and pictures.
Even though it has its adrenaline side, we felt safe 100% of the times. Peter was amazing, as well as the rest of the crew. We highly recommend it!! Definitely an amazing experience
Awesome rafting with Kaituna Cascades! We had so much fun and our guide Sir Cole was so informative we felt so secure throughout the whole adventure.
Incredible adrenaline-pumping rafting experience going down the beautiful Tutea Falls and unpredictable rapids! It was great that we got the chance to swim the rapids too. Thanks to Matt and the team for a wonderful adventure, including the photographer for capturing the highlights! :)
This was the second time I went white water rafting with this crew and they were aweome both times! Fun, friendly and professional team. Thank you!
One of my best experiences ever! All the staff where really nice, chilled out and funny! Would deffo recommend and will be coming back in the future. We had Malcolm as our guide who was great! Loved every minute also we flipped on the fall!!
We had a lot of fun yesterday. The guide was superb, supportive and energetic. Even though we doing Rafting for the first time, he made it easier. Definitely gonna come back later. This is fun 🔥
An amazing experience. Our guide Elvis was great, making sure everyone felt safe, and had fun. Would highly recommend doing this!
The Kaituna Cascades Rafting Expedition was my first rafting experience and we all had a blast! Well organized, helpful intro, super friendly, fun instructors! Awesome guyssss!!!!We can definitely recommend it!! Yeah have fun n enjoy life
Awesome trip down the Kaituna. Felt safe the whole time. Great host Reece. Told us exactly what we needed to do. Will do it again ?
Exhilarating experience I was so nervous but they filled me with positive vibes great professional made me feel like I could do anything xx love love love ❤️ everyone needs to do this with these guys x
Nice people, nice River!
A must do if your seriously seeking some adventure The guys were concerned with nothing but our safety and ensureing our experience was unforgettable Thanks for the great time and an experience that will never be forgotten AAAAAAAA++++++++++'
Such a great experience! Guides were awesome. I made a mistake with my booking and they were more than happy to rebook us, with no hassles whatsoever. Highly recommend Kaituna Cascades to everyone wanting a safe and extremely fun adventure. Thanks very much!
Had a fabulous adrenaline-pumping fun-filled afternoon yesterday rafting on the Kaituna River with our teenage boys. This is a MUST DO, whether it is with family, friends, work colleagues or visitors. The crew are a great team, professional, safety conscious, and lots of fun.
I was admittedly a bit nervous, but as soon as got our gear on and got into the boat to practice, the nerve were gone because our instructor, Rob, was really fun, had good humor, and explained everything very well. Going down the waterfalls was exhilarating — it was quite cold since it’s still winter but amazing nonetheless. The photos are a bit pricey, but we didn’t regret purchasing them as they’re great quality! Thanks for a rad experience, guys! :)
It's my 3rd time with the Kaituna Cascades crew. Great experience would highly recommend
Challenge myself and wife on this rafting. Briefing and preparation was super clear by the friendly instructors. Indeed, an awesome good experience doing this rafting. 7 metres drop is no joke but fun after the drop. We got Ollie and Blue as our instructors. They both make everyone on the raft feel comfortable throughout. Thumbs up to both of them. Best Rafting ever. Thank you for the experience.
Teamed up with Peter who was super friendly and made sure we were 100% on what to to do on the water and how to stay safe. Would definitely love to experience again. Thank you everyone at Kaituna Cascades
Everything about this was incredible! If you're considering doing this, book it. It's exhilarating, the staff are the best and you won't want to get out of the boat at the end!
What a great experience!!! I definitely recommend it. The staff was nice, the location is not far from the city center. Be prepared to get wet and have lot’s of fun.
