Great afternoon out!
We had a great time on the adventure with lots of little quirky stops along the way. Paul is a great host and really included the kids in everything. They loved it! Thank you.

Great fun
Lots of fun, feeding the chooks, the bush walk and the cuppa, all stops along the way. Self drive the carts. very informative and low key. great for families also.

Great ride
A must do if you are travelling around the Whakatane area. We found that our hosts "the two Paul's" had a great sense of safety. knowledge of the area and a brilliant sense of humor plus their interaction with the children and adults of all ages on our trip was just great.

We did this as an Anniversary gift to each other to symbolize our lifes' journey together! Great little ride through NZ native bush and land, with a very friendly and entertaining guide and some interesting story telling. We stopped along the way to feed a mob of chickens, and even had time for cuppa and biscuits at a lovely secluded spot. Some lovely photo shots going over bridges and intersections. Great overall experience and recommend to this to all!!
