Thanks to our amazing tour guide Mark, we all had a wonderful day. He made everyone feel special. His local knowledge was brilliant and I strongly recommend the tour.

Easy tour stopping at Mt Wellington and Richmond. Mini bus was fine. Our guide was a nice young man but didn’t really know much and couldn’t answer many of our questions. Overall, I’d say not great value for money.

Booked this as a cruise shore tour. Great value when you don't have a lot of shore time. Our tour guide was so knowledge which added to the experience. Bus was clean and in good condition. Mount Wellington did not disappoint and we came back with stunning pictures.
