Thank you for your lovely review! We're so glad you had such a great experience. Cori has a wonderful way of making the tour both fun and informative, and they'll be so pleased to hear your kind feedback. Thanks for the recommendation—we really appreciate it and hope to see you again someday.

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We're sorry to hear the tour didn't fully meet your expectations. The Ōtorohanga Kiwi House is a community-run, non-profit conservation centre, so while it may not have the scale or presentation of some larger wildlife attractions around the world, its focus is on the care and conservation of New Zealand’s unique native wildlife. In addition to the kiwi, it is home to a variety of native birds, giving visitors the opportunity to learn more about and appreciate New Zealand’s precious birdlife. At Blue Spring, guests can enjoy the beauty of one of New Zealand’s clearest and most remarkable natural waterways. The crystal-clear turquoise water, peaceful surroundings, and native scenery make it a very special place to visit. Please note that our tour includes a section of the walking track rather than the full track, allowing guests to experience the highlights of this beautiful location while keeping the overall itinerary comfortable and enjoyable for all guests. The Waitomo Glowworm Caves are one of New Zealand’s most iconic natural attractions, offering a truly unique underground experience. The ancient limestone formations, fascinating cave history, and the magical sight of thousands of glowworms illuminating the cave ceiling create a memorable experience that many travellers describe as a highlight of their time in New Zealand. Above all, we hope you enjoyed your day with our guide and the personal touch they brought to the journey. We are a New Zealand family-owned and operated business, and creating meaningful experiences for our guests is always at the heart of what we do. Guest satisfaction is our highest priority, and we truly value feedback that helps us continue to improve. Thank you again for travelling with us, and we hope you take home many wonderful memories from your time in New Zealand.

We appreciate your recommendation and look forward to welcoming you on your next adventure.

Thanks for taking the time to share your experience. We completely understand that the start of the day wasn’t ideal. We’re all human and sometimes mistakes do happen, but we’re really glad the driver was able to return quickly and that the rest of the day went smoothly for you. To be honest, we can’t even remember the last time something like this happened, but we still take it seriously. We’ve used it as a learning moment with our team and provided additional training to help make sure it doesn’t happen to other travellers in the future. Great to hear the glowworm caves exceeded your expectations — they really are something special. Thanks again for your understanding and for still recommending the tour. It’s really appreciated.
