Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

Can't rate this tour highly enough. We wanted a tour experience that would enhance the natural beauty of the west coast, and this is what we got. The quality and knowledge of the tour guide was top notch and we had a wonderful group to travel with. The van was a lovely modern mercedes, which made for comfortable all day travel. We can't wait to explore more of this part of the world with Cheeky Kiwi.

We visited a few places around the South Island with Cheeky Kiwi, but Wānaka was a standout. Comfortable shuttle buses with small groups and genuinely friendly drivers. Put Wānaka with Cheeky Kiwi on your list of things to do. Highly recommend

This tour was so magical.
The weather was perfect so we could see for miles.
The right amount of bathroom breaks which is a big deal for me.
The staff were friendly and had a wealth of information for every place we arrived at.
The only down side was that the adventure came to an end eventually.
Highly recommend this tour.

Easy way to get around the South Island without driving and looking at the scenery. Our guide was also lovely and knowledgeable.
