7 places sorted by featured
- 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.

*Likely to sell out: Based on Viator’s booking data and information from the provider from the past 30 days, it seems likely this experience will sell out through Viator, a Tripadvisor company.

- Leigh P1 contributionHeaps of fun! Tee is an incredible driver!! Would recommend wearing a rain coat, you’re definitely going to get wet but it’s absolutely worth itWritten 6 October 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Andrew G1 contributionA really phenomenal experience from start to finish, from a very professional, knowledgable outfit. Would highly recommend to all that want to experience authentic Jet Boating whilst in NZ.Written 11 October 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Heather CEvanston, IL14 contributionsKarthik was an outstanding tour guide. Our number 1 priority was completing the Tongariro Alpine Crossing and Karthik (and some lucky weather) made certain we were able to do that! We talked to people who were unable to get onto a shuttle because the shuttles were booked or were told the crossing was closed and consequently, missed the hike. The day before and after the hike we’re also filled with exciting activities. Karthik was able to make suggestions based on our preferences. I wish we had hired Karthik for our entire trip!Written 22 November 2022This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Samantha SWashington DC, DC4 contributionsOverall, this was a really good tour. However, there are some pro's and con's to be aware of.
This tour was a great value for the cost. Fairly cheap but with a lot included. The additional excursions were fairly cheap as well but really fun. I feel like we saw and did so much within a one week span of time. The cultural Maori experience was particularly special. My partner and I are in our late 30's and we were worried we would be the oldest people by far but we were not. Many people on the tour were our age or right around our age. Most of the accommodations were centrally located.
Some of the cons- Expect your typical hostel accommodations. Nothing special. We did the private room which was nicer. I was surprised that the free breakfasts that were included on this tour were basically the tour operator purchasing breakfast foods from the grocery (i.e. cereals, bread, e.t.c.) and transporting them to the hostels. Tours I had been on in the past included meals usually meant through the hotels or restaurants or something. Our tour guide didn't seem particularly enthused or upbeat during the entire tour.Written 12 November 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

The whole experience has been excellent from booking (the website provides good information and gives everything you need to know for your trip, and makes your booking really easy) to the last day of the tour. As a solo traveler I highly recommend this experience as you get to see so much of NZ with lovely people.Written 5 April 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.
