Stephen was very informative — pleasant and on time! Lovely afternoon seeing some very remote parts of NZ we would never have seen on our own. So disappointed we were not able to catch his glow worm tour.

This was a fantastic tour and easily will be the best way to explore Rotorua. Steve, the guide was extremely knowledgeable, accommodating and engaging throughout. He clearly knew all the best places to go, away from the usual tourist crowds. If you really want to understand the area, as well as bathe in some out the outstanding surroundings and water, this is 100% the tour you need!

Visit Rotorua's best thermal sites in 4 hours, without worrying about parking, searching for information, driving, and all that in the comfort of an air-conditioned minibus. An incredible time saver! Steven, our guide, was great. He knows the area well and explained a lot of things to us that we would never have known if we had visited the sites on our own. And the highlight was definitely the hot bath at the end of the tour, at Waikite Valley Hot Pools. A beautiful place that I highly recommend as well.

Great family experience, convenient and comfortable way to visit several thermal sites, Steven knows the history of all his sites. This is more than just a visit. Alone, we would have seen beautiful landscapes without knowing their history. I recommend 100%

The Thermal Path Tour is wonderful! Stephen is a very friendly and informative guide. I learned not only about the geothermal activity at 5 different sites but also about the plants and wildlife too. It's a perfect tour for anyone making a short visit to Rotorua as so much ground is covered. Highly recommended!

Steve did a fantastic job taking us on the thermal path tour. His knowledge is boundless presented in an informative and easy going manner. We were so lucky it was just the two of us on the tour and Steve paced things perfectly for a couple not as agile as we used to be. I would recommend this tour for anyone who wants to see the real Rotorua.

Excellent tour. Stephen is very knowledgeable and easy to be around. We learned a lot about the area and he is very conscientious and respectful of the environment. Its clear that he loves where he lives and it is reflected in the tour. We appreciated the very small group! I wouldn't hesitate to book with Real Rotorua!!

What a fabulous tour. We did the Thermal Path Tour and it was the best tour of our five day visit to North Island, and we liked all of our tours too! Our tour guide was so great and knowledgeable about everything we saw and heard. I especially enjoyed the concluding stop after a full day of exploring the natural beauty of the thermal sights of North Island, with the relaxing visit to the thermal swimming pools. Our tour with Real Rotorua tours was set up for us by Harriet McGregor of Thrifty Tours in NZ.

This was our second tour with Stephen in 24 hours. We did the glow worms tour the night before so we knew that we were in for a great trip. Stephen curated a tour that gives you a real sense of the power of nature in the Rotarua area, ending with a dip in some lovely hot pools. Again the personal nature of the tour is the thing that was important to us. It was in stark contrast to a tour we did the next day at a Māori village in a group of about 25 people were we were barged into, shoved out of the way, and had our views of key things obscured by people taking pictures on their phones. None of this with Real Rotarua. Wish we could take Stephen with us to South Island and let him guide us there as well! Thank you Real Rotarua - two first class experiences that I would recommend to anyone.
