Escroquerie

L'entreprise hq adventure ce vente d'être la meilleure pour cet activité... moi il m'ont tout simplement oublié le jour de la sortie! J'ai attendu le bus plus d'une heure dans le froid devant mon hôtel a 5h40 du matin pour ne jamais voir arriver personne. De plus ils affirment être venue alors que j'ete devant l'hôtel en avance et pendant plus d'une heure, ils me traitent donc ouvertement de menteur et ne veulent pas me remboursé parce que sois disant "c'est mon problème pas le leurs"! Je ne recommande donc absolument pas cet entreprise d'escros qui n'assume pas leur responsabilité et prennent clairement leur clients pour des con !

Superbe navette à recommander

La navette est venue nous récupérer devant notre air b and b et nous y a ramené en fin de randonnée. Pour la navette de retour des glaces et de l'eau fraîche nous ont été offerts. A recommander vraiment !

Bonne expérience

Super temps pour le tongariro, très chaud sur le retour, au moment de remonter dans le shuttle le chauffeur avait prévu des glaces à l'eau et de l'eau très bienvenue, au top

Pratique quand on n'a pas de voiture!

Pratique, le shuttle va chercher les personnes à leur hébergement et les ramène donc il ne reste plus qu'à faire le Tongariro crossing !
