Train ride Ngongotaha
The adults loved it not so much the 10 year old girl. It was hard to hear the commentary at times. We wondered about head phones somehow? We were interested in what it was telling us as the history of the area is interesting.

We had a wonderful time and Shelley the guide was great. I think it may be a good idea to add a tip top freezer or something for when you get to the mamaku cabin and maybe have cash sales or something there. Would make the summer trips even better
