Amazing Day Out

So much more than just a jet ride. Definitely the best spur of the moment activity I've been on. Shannon and her knowledge, skill and amazing friendliness certainly made the trip. Right from the minute I arrived, I was very welcome. All geared up and ready to go Shannon took us on a great trip, explaining things along the way. Then the fun starting squeezing through the canyon and out the other side to an amazing waterfall. After our natural water massage we were homeward bound when Shannon kicked it up a notch and we started with twisting and turning and 180° spins. Excellent time from start until finish and I truly recommend.

Awesome day out

Great day out,done a few jet boats round the country but this is by far the best one I've done as its more than just a burn on a boat up a river, you get awesome different sceneries from farmlands,canyons to geothermal Wonderland's, informative hard case guides and then the actual trek through the squeeze is the highlight and you get a jetboat ride as a added bonus, which of course is always fun and one of the longer if not the longest one I've done

Loved the squeeze!! All the staff were amazing - friendly and helpful. Our tour guide was Cam I believe - super funny and knowledgeable about the area. Jet ride was fun, maybe a half hour each way. They supply wet suit tops and a coat to wear on the way back cause you’ll be wet. The walk in had warm water to your knees, then around the squeeze, it could come up to your stomach, chest area (when you have to duck a bit to get around the rock face. Then the water goes back to ankle high for the rest of the walk until you get to the waterfall. The waterfall water is waaaay warmer. It’s so awesome in there, powerful and you can take photos. Only wish we could stay there longer that a few minutes but you head back once every group has gone in Overall, very cool experience and these guys run a great service. 10/10 recommend!

I was hesitant to do anything like this but I gave it a go.. so glad i did!!! Its been the best experience i have done.. the driver known as chip was welcoming, got to know his passengers and had a sense of humor to him which is always a great thing when exploring.. he made the trip even better. The jet boat was so cool we did 360 spins (for those of you who aren't sure it's not super super fast so give it a go).. got close to the edge to give you the thrill.. we went through the squeeze (it's an option) which you get off the boat and walk in the water (wasnt high when we went through, to my knees or lower).. walked through this narrow opening (hence the name the squeeze), came to a waterfall and walked up and around to the pool area where we had 10mins to relax.. then back to the boat... certainly gave me a thrill loved every part of it!!

5 Star Tour

My girlfriend and I really enjoyed our morning with Geoff. He is a very friendly and knowledgable tour guide and we could both happily listen to him speak about New Zealand all day long. Wai-O-Tapu is a MUST DO trip for anyone traveling through Rotorua. We contemplated using the Intercity busses however they involve a rediculously long walk when you get there so definitely avoid! The other tour companies seem very poor value for money considering what you get with Arden Hybrid Tours. It was our first time using ‘Book Me’ and we were nervous but fear not as it proved to be very reliable and easy and we will continue to use it in New Zealand. My only regret is that we don’t have longer in Rotorua as I would have loved to have joined Geoff again for another one of his tours. Thank you again Geoff!

I took my 13 year old daughter and we both loved it. She was dying to get in with the dogs from the moment we pulled up so that was the highlight for her. Very informative and hosts were super friendly and welcoming. Highly recommended to all dog lovers. Great clue for money. We will definitely be back on our next trip to Taupo. It’s great that this is on offer as an activity to do. Thanks guys. Cant wait to see those puppies in action when we are back

Hosts are very passionate, friendly, knowledgeable and really make the experience special. The talks could have been a bit shorter for the sake of the children as it was a long time to sit still and listen but they loved the interaction with the dogs and watching them race all harnessed up as a team.

What an amazing experience! We visited Mid-July for our weekend trip to Taupo and Rotorua, and we all had a great time. My son, who is special needs absolutely loves animals so he was definitely in his element. Steve and Tanya are such great hosts, we enjoyed talking to them as well as seeing the dogs run and having time to just hang out with their beautiful huskies. Highly recommend visiting Timberline! We will definitely be keeping in eye out on their websites to hopefully see their puppies, hopefully soon!

My entire family love love loved this experience! Our hosts were fantastic from the get go and made the whole time informative, funny and enjoyable. The huskies were beautiful as well as their awesome German shepherd who is like an honorary husky. We highly recommend this tour to every dog lover or husky enthusiast as these owners really know their stuff! Hope to do this again in the near future.
