Wärmste Empfehlung!
Ich habe beide Shuttle-Touren nach Wai o Tapu und Waimangu-Tal an zwei aufeinanderfolgenden Tagen gemacht. Für mehr Zeit vor Ort bucht am besten morgens! Karen und Slim bieten nicht nur einen großartigen und zuverlässigen Shuttleservice, sondern auch Einblicke in die beiden geothermischen Stätten. Die Zeit vergeht wie im Flug, während sie ihr Wissen weitergeben. Stellt ihnen alle Fragen!

Tolles Angebot!
Das Shuttle ist nur weiterzuempfehlen! Das Ehepaar, dem das Unternehmen gehört, ist sehr lieb und erzählt auf der Fahrt schon vieles zu den Geothermalgebieten. Man hat genug Zeit um alles zu erkunden. Würde jederzeit wieder mit ihnen buchen.

Supertoller Trip
Die Buchung über bookme hat bestens funktioniert, sehr einfach und zuverlässig. Der Shuttle war pünktlich, und unsere beiden Guides Caren und Slim waren großartig. Sehr freundlich, und sie gaben uns viele Informationen über Geschichte, Entwicklung, Geothermie, und alles was wir wissen wollten. Absolut empfehlenswert!

Dankbar für so einen schönen Ausflug
Ich kann es nur empfehlen. Es war richtig schön und Slim und Karen sind so tolle Tourguides und Menschen. Es ist keine Massenabfertigung und das macht es so besonders. Die beiden habe alle Fragen beantwortet und selbst ganz viel Information gegeben. Es war richtig authentisch. Der Ort an sich ist wunderschön. Nimmt genügend zu trinken mit, da es sehr warm dort ist. Ich bin so froh, dass ich mich dafür entschieden habe.
