“We are very happy with our tour to Rotorua. Brian is a wonderful guide. He is knowledgeable and friendly and respectful. He kept the tour going at a good pace. I loved the history commentary. We spent a couple of hours at the Māori village. The tour with a resident of the village was fascinating. The performance was wonderful and the lunch was an added bonus. We made several stops on the way back to see other aspects of the area. Overall, an excellent day.”
