Excellent - An excellent experience. No words to appreciate the service n hospitality of expedigo. The guide mr. Burhan also very courteous n had good knowledge of the history of new Zealand. Expedigo had taken proper care for our comfort during our tour. We strongly recommend the tourists to take day tours with expedigo.

Beautiful views, relaxing spa, and excellent guide! - The drive itself was a beautiful drive. The Wai-O-Tapu geothermal sulfur pits were as aromatic as you can imagine, but the colors were very vibrant. Lady Knox was impressive. The spa was great, very relaxing with temperature options including a cool plunge to cool off. Our guide Huzefa was amazing. Super knowledgeable and helpful, wouldn’t have been the same without him.

Very very interesting day - Jo was an excellent Guide for this day. He accompanied us for the visit of Wai o tapu in the walking circuit. A very pleasant 45 minute walk. Then l afternoon at the Polynesian Spa in the 5 luxury alkaline or acid pools in temperatures of 38 to 41 degrees, in front of a lake. Great relaxation, very relaxing. Jo gave a lot of information about the life of the country, its history. Its geography, social life, places, restaurants, sport etc.

Amazing experience of Rotorua’s geothermal landscape - We booked this tour last minute when we had free a day on our second visit to Auckland and we were very glad we did! Wai-O-Tapu is a must-visit! The vibrant colors, bubbling mud pools, and the impressive Lady Knox Geyser are breathtaking. Easy to explore with well-marked paths and incredible photo spots. Truly a unique and unforgettable experience! The Polynesian Spa in Rotorua is also amazing! We found the geothermal pools with lake views perfect for unwinding. Excellent facilities and Staff were super friendly also. Our guide took us around in Rotorua also and gave us a feel of the city and photo opportunities. Overall this was a very fun tour - we had a fab day and would certainly recommend booking this if you’d like to relax a little during your travels.
