Enthusiastic and informative driver :)Nice place to visit for about 2 hours! I prefer it to waitomo caves or hobbiton village (these are too expensive and not as expected)

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!

Thank you Linda for such an amazing tour and transfer service. Your attention to detail and kindness went a long way in making me feel welcome. I appreciate all the help and information on other things to do in the area as well.

The trip was nice and comfortable!

Geoffrey is a good guide to lead us to see wonderland, he gave us enough time to visit whole theme park , I did really enjoy this tour and thank him so much!

Marvellous nature beauty

A bit smelly but it's a must do.

Our guide Kraig is very knowledgeable and friendly. Small group tour allows our guide to cater more time to the intinary which provides better experience than big tour bus and flexi tour. Will definitely book other tour which cheeckykiwitour

We spent a lovely three hours walking then boating through New Zealands newest geothermal area. Signage along the way was informative and interesting and helped us appreciate the devastation and extent of the Mt Tarawera eruption. The four kilometre walk to the lake was mostly downhill with lots of stops along the way to marvel at Mother Nature's wrath! A shuttle bus took us back up the hill after the boat trip. I really recommend this fascinating place, the only thing missing is dinosaurs!

Wonderful experience! Recommend going earlier in the morning or later in the day as it was quite hot when we went in the middle of the day... Definitely take water, sunscreen, hat and comfy walking shoes... The natural beauty is surreal, definitely recommend!! ?

Leisurely walk downhill with plenty of viewpoints. The walk does not need to be rushed, we had time for a pre-packed lunch at the picnic tables. We would recommend this to anyone visiting the Rotorua - Taupo region. Boat trip was informative with a close-up view of a geyser.

Easy walk from the entry to the lake. So many amazing views along the way. Lots of info boards. Loved the boat trip with the commentary from the captain 👍. Nice easy ride back on the bus. Great customer service staff. Lovely cafe at the end for cake and coffee. Totally recommend this experience.

One of the best experiences we’ve had since our stay in Rotorua. Full of amazing facts and very knowledgeable guide on the boat cruise.

We arrived early and so we had a nice quiet walk with not many people around. The staff were very friendly and informative. The sights were awesome and the hiking path was fun. We did the walk on a cloudy day, which now I see is a good thing as if it were sunny, be sure to bring sunscreen! I'd definitely recommend the experience! :)

We had a fantastic walking down into the valley. It was very special to be able to walk among nature the whole way. The paths are well signposted and pass through spectacular geothermal areas, and the viewing areas are well placed and well maintained. Loved the art work on the way and the differences in landscape. Sadly we missed the final part - the wetland area to Lake Rotomahana as we were concerned we could miss the boat cruise. The boat cruise was very informative and it was fantastic to see Mount Tarawera up close. Thoroughly recommend to all and would happily go again.

Excellent experience authentic Great experience love the features only since 1886 since the eruption.hope you find the pink and White terraces

Absolutely stunning and a must see if you are Rotorua. Very helpful friendly staff. There is a lovely cafe and there is a complimentary bus that takes you back to the reception after your walk at 3 different points.

Highly recommend this walk that combines great views of stunning thermal lakes and surrounding mountains with lots of signage on trail of the area and history of the Tarawera eruptions and famous pink and white terraces.Well maintained easy walking tracks, with optional boat ride at end and bus return if you wish. A great day out and cafe food was lovely as were the staff. Take sun protection and plenty of water if doing this walk in summer as can get very hot in the valley. Well worth the price with book-me discount, otherwise a rather expensive walk for full price.

A wonderful way to spend a morning. Beautiful scenery, interesting history

Having the Waimangu App was an extra help. This gave you some added interactive features that added to the whole experience. It gave you information at places you might otherwise miss. It would pay to give yourself at least three hours to really take in all the information, scenery and the environment. So amazing to think how powerful, ruthless and yet beautiful mother-nature can be.

We thoroughly enjoyed our walk through the valley, good viewing points, well informed. It felt like a very natural experience despite being a tourist attraction. Would highly recommend for a half-day visit or longer.

The walk is mostly downhill, with some uphill steps. There is one place (Inferno Lake) you cannot miss and is totally worth the effort to walk up the steps (takes about 2 minutes) Make sure you take a hat, sunscreen and water if it's a sunny day as there is little shade and due to the proximity of hot pools and rising steam. There is a bus (with 3 stops) that runs approximately every 50 minutes that will take you back to the start. If you are a really keen hiker, then you can take the bus down to the lake and walk up.

The walk was the highlight of our weekend visit to Rotorua. Excellent experience from start to finish (delicious almond mocca from your cafe; to the very informative return bus ride). Easy walking trails and wonderful photo opportunities. Thank you!!!

After making a booking mistake, the manager and front desk staff at Waimangu really went above & beyond in accommodating us and my confusion. I have rarely experienced this kind of sympathy and patience at any business, period. We are very grateful for their assistance. The Valley is also a beautiful place to see, especially the first half. My only qualm is that the uphill walk, which was tecommended, is not worth the trouble. The viewpoints were largely overgrown and there wasn't a wholerecommended, aside from that, wonderful experience. Thank you!

It was a nice place, we spent more time than we thought. More natural and so much less tourists ! However, the price is a bit expensive when you know that the famous geothermal place is 32,5$ ! So for 40$ I was expected to have the boat trip included. And we were expecting to have a nice lookout over the inferno crater from the hiking track. It is a nice place anyway, I will recommend it ! French people.

We spend a great time at Waimangu Volcanic Valley, we could see a lot of beautiful lookout and the walkway was really worth it ! Everyone can do this activity and see the magie of Volcanic area !

I did trhe really lovely self guided walk. There was plenty of viewing and information stops. A bus is available to pick up or drip of from various places. With the book me deal, it was great value for money. I am more than happy to support theses lovely nature reserves.

Inferno and frying pan are the only things to watch !!

The trip was great. We arrived early and were the first ones in the park. The place is right out of Jurassic Park.

Absolutely worth seeing!

Beautiful walk and views of the volcanic valley. There is a small geysee. The colors are great.

We were not expecting much with this visit , but we were pleasantly surprised and impressed.

Beautiful and breathtaking volcanic view and colorful water

2小时的轻松徒步，适合家庭出游。景色奇幻、员工友好、设施良好。如果你希望贴近大自然、不喜欢商业氛围太浓，那么来这里你会感觉到悠然自在。

Excellent experience. Easy walking done at your own pace. Good value for money except thought the cruise was over priced for what it was. Would definitely recommend!!

Its a lovely and relaxing place to go, so pretty and interesting, The bus trip back is a really good idea too
