Le guide est sympathique et le ratio visiteurs/guide rend l'expérience unique et enrichissante. On en apprend pas seulement sur les vers luisants. Je recommande!
Great way to learn about, not only Kiwi, but other NZ wildlife... We stayed for the talk in the kiwi night house. The lady was a wealth of knowledge!! Only thing I would say could be improved on was, needed more air ventilation/cooling in the viewing corridor where you see the Kiwi’s... When a lot of people are in there listening to the talk, it can get a bit stifling... My children had to go and sit outside while the lady was talking because of this... But other than that, it was great!! Thank you!!
Had a brilliant day, beautiful weather. Kids really enjoyed eels being fed
Came specially for the kiwi and it's all worth it. #nzmustdo
i loved it when it was feeding times for the kiwis. theres a 20ish year old one and it nibbles at the keeper that was funny. and a wood pigeon that was friendly and it came up close to say hello.
We were able to see the Kiwis up close and they're night enclosure as they fed them. A really awesome thing to experience . The bird sanctuary is clean and blush with beautiful vegetation to house these incredible animals.
We had a fun time watching the kiwi bird running around in the display room and attacking the kiwi keeper while feeding. Many native birds in the park. Staffs are kind and helpful. However the park is rather small.
Thanks for an awesome trek. Definitely recommend and we will be back!
My partner and I were total beginners, but Nicole made sure we both felt comfortable and knew what to do. The farm is beautiful and there's some nice variety on the track (hills, bridges, etc.) to keep things interesting for two hours. We stopped for a snack, including fresh spring water and homemade bread. Overall a really lovely experience. Would definitely recommend!
We had a very enjoyable trip yesterday cruising the Waikato River. Friendly staff, lovely lunch and on board commentary was very informative and interesting. Thank you. Would definitely recommend this experience.
This was the most wonderful experience you can imagen! With Nicole and Shawn who told us about their life and about NZ history while riding in beautiful the surondigns we couldn´t have wish for more. The horses were very nice and we loved their dog, Luk who came with us on our tour. Thanks a lot and an extra tanks for the cold and lovely milk!!!
I would highly recommend this activity to anyone. Nicole is a great teacher and makes you feel welcome and safe from the very beginning. The horses are beautiful and very friendly. Not to mention the track gives you access to the most surreal, relaxing scenery. 10/10, we loved it!
It was the best ride I've had in a long time. The horses were awesome, the nature incredible (there are some spots where they shot a scene for The Hobbit) and Nicole was really nice. When you book through this site and are an experienced rider make sure to give Nicole a call before you go do you don't end up in a beginner's group. This way you'll be able to trot and race up the mountains as well. You definitely leave with a smile on your face
A MUST DO if you like crafting! It's the most enjoyable and rewarding activity I've payed for in 5 months spent travelling around New Zealand! You'll know everything about the blacksmith job and how a forge works. Rob and Arja take a great care to make sure you feel good, the atmosphere is familial and the food was absolutely delicious! I've spent a full day with Rob, We've made a fantastic sturdy Khukuri knife and I really did a lot of it myself. It's greatly rewarding to leave with your own creation.
This day tour was one of the best day in my New Zealand trip! Hobbiton and glowworm cave were both really awesome and unforgettable experiences. Our guide was really fun and nice. Definately worth of the money!
The bbq was so delicious!!!! Thanks guys really enjoyed our time
Thank you for the experience on the waikato explorer
On this sunny afternoon I so enjoyed the cruise up from the Wharf at Hamilton Gardens. A cafe on board. Relaxing music. Friendly crew and Captain/ Owner to chat to.
Excellent all round, From welcoming, service to commentary
Friendly staff and a peaceful journey on the river
Me and my partner ended up being the only ones on the cruise and it was super heavy rain that day which made it that much more special. Our host and captain were really nice and easy to talk to, also the brownie and the toastier was amazing, will definitely go back again
The river cruise was the only thing we hadn't done in Hamilton and I am so glad we finally did it. It was so relaxing, we learnt about the history of Hamilton. The food and drinks on board were well priced and what we had was delish. Try the kids vege Nachos!
After our original party venue was cancelled due to rain, we jumped online and found Blastacars. The whole event from booking online, phoning to add 2 more kids, the friendly staff, entertaining briefing and 10 teens drifting for 20 mins went smoothly! Thanks team we will be back!
Kids had so much fun!!!! Good vibe helpful team and lots of fun to be had will defs go back again
So much fun. . .had the best day ever
Ordered eye fillet, Mac n cheese with pulled pork and cheeseburger. Great taste, we enjoyed our meal! Loved interior as well.
What an amazing experience dining at Hood St Bistro. Gorgeous setting, humble and relaxed atmosphere, staff were super friendly and welcoming and the food was AMAZING! The beef burger and the fried chicken tacos literally made me happy dance! The flavours were amazing. Highly recommend stopping in and trying their delicious menu! We will be back to try the dinner menu soon!
Ordered the tapas and loaded wedges. All plates were delicious with huge portions and the serving lady was very kind. Would definitely dine again!
My son wanted to see what Hamilton had to offer. Service was great. Was a hot day, rooms were air conditioned. Didn't quite make the time. But thoroughly enjoyed out time there. We will be back. Thanks ladies. Otautahi crew.
An excellent adventure from start to finish. Nick made us very welcome at check-in and ramped up our excitement. Then we set off with the friendly Joel who was super safety conscious but still maintained the fun and excitement. We abseiled down waterfalls, crawled through gaps we thought we'd never get through, rocked climbed and saw wonderous natural formations, and of course glowworms. Joel was very knowledgeable - there wasn't a question he couldn't answer and gave us so much interesting information on everything! Would definitely recommend, and would love to return another day for more adventures.
We spent 3 weeks in North and South island and this was the best activity we did. A small group of just 2 of us got the chance to squeeze through tiny gaps and duck underwater to get through certain places all whilst being in an environment covered in glow worms. It was an excellent mix of scenic and scary. We had Chan and Luke guiding us and they even let us do extra challenges again because we enjoyed them so much. Would recommend to anyone in the area.
Every tourist and new zealander visiting Waitomo should definitely try this. Very exciting cave, loved the absailing and rock climbing. The guides Chao and Kenny were absolutely outstanding and made the attraction so much better. Will definitelytry to do it again with other friends.
Very pleasant trip to Hobbiton, bus ride from City to Hobbiton and Ruakuri's very informative and entertaining. The driver is very polite. Trip to Hobbiton is worth it! No hassles at all, and the buffet at the Green Dragon pub was great and something to look forward to as well. Ruakuri Cave tour was very enjoyable. Only downside was that we had to wait for a longer time for the bus taking us back to Auckland - and we are not even sure who we should look for or who we are waiting for if not for the lovely lady driver who was taking the other group to Rotorua. All in all, it was a great experience and must try tour while in auckland.
