Simon my driver was fantastic from pick up to dropping me off. Very informative. It was a great sunny day to visit the Hobbiton movie set. I’m glad I went and to spend the day seeing the country side.

We visited the Hobbiton set and then Wai-O-Tapu from Auckland and had a wonderful time! Our guide was Grant, who was very informative and gracious and looked after us well! Highly recommended!

The tour was nice, it is great if you are in Auckland without a car and wish to see Hobbiton and the Wai-O-tapu geothermal site. Our guide Dave was really nice and friendly! Just keep in mind that there is a lot of driving. A lot. Except for the 2 hours in Hobbiton and 1.5 hours in Wai-O-tapu, the rest of the time is spent on the road. Thanks to the breaks it is not that bad, but it is just good to know before booking. In my opinion the tour would benefit from at least 30 minutes more in Wai-o-tapu, so all who want to get to do all 3 trails and grab lunch. Arriving back home 30 minutes later would not make much of a difference on a whole day tour, but when making all this way it would be nice to be able to go through all the trails and maybe the hot pools. Thanks again to Cheeky Kiwi and cheeky Dave for the memorable day :)

The experience was great, Cam was a great tour leader and he offered mamy insights, good advice and was always having a great vibe and was also very helpful and I enjoyed everything :) Would recommend though maybe from the participants to try and be a bit more well rested the night before as I was quite exhausted and couldn't fully enjoy the Wai-O-Tapu experience, but still the rest was really great, thank you very much 😊

Proper good tour, very organized, timely. Simon was great. Just sit back, relax, and they take care of the rest. Also kudos to Cheeky Kiwi team for doing everything in their power to get my daughter’s hobbiton sunglasses back to us. They went above and beyond.

OMG! Alfredo made this one of the most amazing experiences of my whole entire life! It was a long 13 hour day, but well worth the money and the time! I know a tour guide or company cannot control the weather but… It was a perfect and gorgeous day for both Hobbiton and Wai-O-Tapu! Alfredo made the drive time, interesting and entertaining while keeping the wheels moving expertly! The drive took a good amount of time, but we had ample stops and supplies of snack bars, chips and water with several chances to purchase goodies along the way. I would do this tour again in a hot minute! Thanks Cheeky Kiwi for the unforgettable experience! Kia Ora!
