- Our Featured sort order ranks tours, activities, and experiences by several factors including the revenue generated by Tripadvisor from these bookings, your individual user browsing history and preferences while using Tripadvisor, the frequency of user clicks generally, and the volume and quality of customer reviews. Occasionally, newly listed offerings may be prioritized and appear higher in the list. The specific placement of these new listings may vary.
We perform checks on reviews.
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.

- Vijay LKuopio, Finland6 contributionsThis was one of the most fascinating experiences I've ever had thanks to tour & travel . A special thanks goes to Linda, who was our guide for the day. I really appreciated her warm welcome and conversation throughout the day. Overall highly recommended if you are in this city.Written 19 August 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Quest460505200821 contributionThe Canopy Tour was amazing! Seeing all the different greens on Dansey Forest was beautiful.
There was 4 of us and we had wonderful guides - Ash and Jess. They were so experienced and instilled confidence. We did 6 ziplines over the canary.
It was a wonderful morning and would like to thank them again for a super tour from start to finish.
We even got to feed the birds with live worms that Ash had in a special container.Written 15 September 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

The guides (Harry and Lisa) are really amazing and friendly. They are the best guides ever, they kept the experience really enjoyable and entertaining.Written 12 September 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- RobertFGCarterFareham, UK1,482 contributionsPick up and return to the ship very timely. Our guide-driver was friendly and knowledgeable. Far cheaper than the ship excursion and far more personalised. Recommended.Written 30 May 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Mich P5 contributionsWas a nice tour that didn't cost an arm and a leg, like the cruise ship wanted to charge us. They picked us up and dropped us off, right at the cruise ship port. Our driver was very nice, had a great sense of humor and was very knowledgeable. There were lots of stops, great photo opportunities, and we learned a lot.Written 25 March 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Ally Moloney19 contributionsLoved the information about Rotorua and the history of the Duck. The scenery was beautiful. I loved going from land to lake and back again. But mostly, our guide Esther was hilarious and made the whole experience so much fun.Written 6 September 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- TSandHWellington, New Zealand49 contributionsWe booked a visit to the Polynesian Spa as part of a combo with Mitai Māori experience. The spa was beautiful even on a cold Rotorua evening. We didn’t have any treatments, but the pools were very relaxing and reinvigorating. And the heated loungers were so comfortable that I didn’t want to get off.!Written 19 July 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- amerdeep s16 contributionsI did the guarded walk and also the mud bath. Firstly, the guy did walk was with a gentleman called Liam who was really really great. Stop. He was so informative and funny that it really made the walk. So fantastic. This is definitely a place to visit and the mud bath was just superb.Written 13 September 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

They had decent options for vegetarian as well.Written 2 May 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.
