Our guide, Helen, was great - Learnt so much on this tour and got to view so many great Art Deco buildings. Impressed that one city can have so many, well kept buildings from the Art Deco Period. This is in no small part down to the Napier Art Deco Trust and there volunteers

Fun, entertaining and informative - Maggie is amazing!! - We did two tours with Maggie over the Nov. 1 weekend in Napier - the whirlwind tour and a custom 4 hour wine tasting tour. She went out of her way to show off her city and region. The highlight was lunch at the Cape Kidnappers Golf Course club house.Thanks for making our stay in Napier!

A nice overview - We saw places we wouldn’t have otherwise seen, and appreciated hearing the link between Napier’s history and the town’s art deco theme. The tour is spent mostly on a mini bus.
