Of our 6 week trip this was one of our best experiences! - We absolutely loved this tour! Our Captain Bex was great fun, full of knowledge and a fantastic driver. The 360 degree turns are really good fun and we learned a lot about the history of Lake Rotorua along the way. All of the Team were so friendly and the tour was very good value. The photo package was a good buy too! Of our 6 week trip this was one of our best experiences so thank you.
