A Beautiful Climb - It was a tough climb for me but the views and sites were always interesting. Owner Jason and guide Rangiora were fun, nice, and compassionate. Never in a rush and always considerate of those at the rear. It was actually worthwhile even though I'm not a hiking/climbing aficionado.

Excellent morning crater walk - Really enjoyable experience Beautiful views of crater and surrounding area, not too taxing but technically challenging in areas due to loose ground underfoot, but good fun. Excellent guide- knowledgeable and friendly, took some lively photos for us all.

What you should do in Rotorua! - It was so amazing I can't put it into words! The detailed explanations from the two guides, the bumpy mountain road drive (more than I expected), the three-colored rock mountain in white, red, and black, the 360-degree view from the summit, the slope at about 45 degrees, the view from inside and outside the volcano... it was an amazing experience that will probably only come once in a lifetime. I recommend this to people who love rocks, mountain climbing, and nature, and want to have an exciting experience! In addition, this mountain is sacred to the Maori, and there is a limit to the number of people who can climb it. In fact, I only had two days in four months to make a reservation. Thank you so much for the valuable experience!

Absolute Must-Do if you are in Rotorua - The tour was amazing! Great organization, great guides, great views! I had a lot of fun! Absolute recommendation if you are in Rotorua!

Thrilling - A big shout out! - A group of international students had the experience to phone home about. While the weather was not great, the guides made up for an invigorating, informative and richly rewarding hike up, around and into the crater. Wish I could name them all but shout out to Jason and Anahera. Highly recommend!

Moderately challenging, but fun and informative. Overall great experience. - This is a short but exhilarating hike. Short in the sense of total distance travelled, but it's a good amount of time on the mountain. Our guides, Anahera and Caprice, were great and provided us with lots of information about the mountain, the surrounding land, their history, and their people. While this hike is suitable for most ages and skill levels, you should have a moderate level of fitness to do it. There are a few areas that are fairly vertical, both hiking up and hiking down, which could be difficult for people who aren't used to hiking or who have issues affecting their mobility. Overall, if you like to hike and want to see a beautiful volcanic crater with lots of awesome views, I'd definitely recommend letting this team take you up Mt. Tarawera.

Gorgeous Views - I really enjoyed walking/sliding down the mountain and seeing all the different views from the top of the mountain!

It felt like out of this planet. - Amazing hike, spectacular views, my experience was beyond what I imagined, every single section was full of surprises! The staff were friendly and helpful during the hike and drive thanks heaps, you created an unforgettable memory for me and my son.

Awesome walk inside volcano crater - Parts of this walk looked a bit daunting to some in the group. The guides, who had a wonderful sense of humour, were excellent at encouraging and supporting them - everyone completed the walk, no problems. This was a marvellous experience on a day when you could see clearly to Ruapehu and White Island. Awesome!

Very enjoyable experience! - Incredible views, fun and short but still somewhat challenging hike (some of that was due to the windy conditions), really good guides.
