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.

This transport service is starting to transform Katikati by offering a number of options for residents and visitors to travel in and around our town. This is a reliable service which is run as a family business by people who are very customer aware and focussed. These kind and generous people have a growing business that has a lot to offer our community.

Kate looked after us over 3 days during our time in Coromandel area. Awesome service, wonderful conversations and so much knowledge. We did a Kayak night tour to see the Glow worm canyons, and day tour to Wai-o-Tapu thermal wonderland and Rotorua and a fabulous day trip Waihi to Coromandel Town via the 309. Well exceeeded our expectations. Thanks so much Kate - you are one in a zillion.

5 minute return trip. Cost $90. Do not use. Absolute rip off. Am all for using local businesses but not at that cost.

Thank you Alison, for your feed back however there were 7 of you and that was return, so $12.85 each return, so $6.40 one way each. I don't compromise on the quality of vehicles and drivers that I use or apologize for the quality of service I offer.

My mum has had a stroke and is in an electric wheelchair. She can only speak a few words and mostly communicates with gestures.
Kent drove me and my mum and my elderly aunt around showing us so many beautiful things including The Redwoods, a kiwi farm, a honey farm and parts of Rotorua.
Nothing was too much trouble. He helped her into and out of her chair and packed it away into the boot between stops. He spoke to her with respect and care and showed real interest in finding out what she wanted to see. It was the absolute highlight of her trip to New Zealand and is one of her happiest memories.
I can not rate this lovely man and his company highly enough. A fantastic day with a real gentleman.

We used ND Kiwi Tours for our wedding day to transport guests and ourselves for photos. They were extremely accommodating and helpful in every way and went out of their way to make our day perfect. The vans were very clean and comfortable with excellent driving. We can highly recommend them for any occasion!!
