Wonders of Wellington via Kaewa Tours and guide Tom Collier. - My husband and I were traveling with another couple (friends) and we had some doubts about signing up for a tour which included a couple of stops we were not interested in, but Tom Collier was immediately agreeable to adjusting the planned schedule to suit our preferences. Tom was knowledgeable about every site we visited, took good photos along the way, and was great fun to be with. We like to find our own way around cities to see the sights, but this tour allowed us to see sights that are less accessible without a car, such as Evans Bay and the suburbs of Seatoun and Brooklyn. A sidenote: one of our group left his jacket in Tom's car and Tom was most gracious about returning the jacket to our hotel. We all were thrilled that the day was full of interesting sites and incredible views, and that our guide, Tom Collier, was a delightful guide/companion.

A DAY TO REMEMBER - I always try to find companies who are happy to take on solo travellers. It’s not my fault that I’m travelling alone any more so I welcome being taken on board, especially when I’m happy to pay the premium that goes with it. Tom an Kaewa Tours we’re happy to do this. He contacted me almost straight away after making my booking and I appreciated that greatly. Then, when two days out, he hit a snag but he contacted me immediately to ask whether my plans were flexible enough to change. When I replied that it was not possible, he just said he would find some way to honour my original booking, no sweat. What more could anyone ask? A man who keeps his promise has my instant respect. He organised another guide, Simon. This was a master stroke … A big rugby and cricket fan and we were best mates right away. Coincidental, yes, but, hey, it works … that beside though, he knew his home city like the back of his hand. Simon was a brilliant guide. He was friendly and knowledgeable, a man of good humour and nothing was a problem. I saw the city with the help of a Wellingtonian born and bred. Every sight was interesting and informatively presented, lunch was included at a lovely seaside eatery and the time just flew by as he guided me round this beautiful place, making my first day ever in it completely memorable. If you’re looking for a personalised tour of Wellington then look no further than Kaewa Tours. They deserve to succeed on this quite magnificent day that I was able to enjoy.

Great tour when in Wellington, good for cruise passengers. - Absolutely fantastic tour with Tom! We had a full day off the cruise ship, explored all of Wellington with sites we never thought we would see. Tom is knowledgeable and personable, navigating the streets we could not hope to drive ourselves on! Had a fabulous time, private tour for two couples. Highly recommended.

Highest Recommendation! - Kaewa Tours exceeded all expectations and was one of the best tours we’ve ever experienced around the world. Tom & Jill reached out soon after our booking with a warm email greeting and offer to zoom with us to personalize our trip. We appreciated their genuine authenticity, kindness and professionalism. Tom made some great suggestions for our drive from Christchurch to Picton. They met us at the Wellington ferry and escorted us to drop off our rental car and take us to our hotel. The following morning Tom shared his love and knowledge in a full-day of fun, fantastic sights, good food, conversation & thoroughly experiencing Wellington. Going above and beyond, Tom took us to Te Papa and checked us in for our flight home. Tom genuinely cared about our enjoyment and experience. It is exceedingly rare to achieve the quality of relationship as quickly as we did, and we parted as friends. We highly recommend Kaewa Tours.

Fantastic day in Wellington! - I cannot say enough good things about this tour in Wellington. Tom greeted us at the port Terminal just as we came off the gangway and was ready for the day. We had 10 stops throughout the day and tickets were purchased, pace of the day was perfect and Tom was the most gracious host. He knew all about the city, told us stories of his tours and even meeting the Prime Minister. We had a lovely lunch at the wonderful cafe beachside. The afternoon was perfect and the views he showed us were spectacular. Throughout the day, he took many photos of us, my aunt/uncle toured with us and then brought us back to the ship with plenty of time. He presented us with a gift and just a few days later, sent us a link with all of our photos attached. This tour was one of the best we have ever had and I would highly recommend using Tom. You will feel as if you have really experienced Wellington!
