AVOID THIS OPERATOR - SCAM! - Extremely disappointed with the service provided by Scenic Shuttles for the Tongariro Alpine Crossing. Despite all other tour providers offering to reschedule due to poor weather conditions, they adamantly refused to accommodate my request. Their insistence on bureaucratic procedures over customer safety and comfort is appalling. Moreover, the operator I spoke with was incredibly rude and unfriendly on the phone, even hanging up on me twice in the middle of the conversation. I've never encountered such unprofessionalism and disrespect from a tour operator. Would not recommend!
