We had booked the tour... - We had booked the tour for Thursday and got a message to change to Friday which we did but there was some confusion when we got picked up, Tim the tour guide was amazing and sorted it out for us. Mt Wellington was amazing with stunning views. We didn’t get to stop at Cascade brewery and only had 30 mins at botanical garden instead of 90 mins as stated in the tour.
Richmond was a nice historical town enjoyed our time there

Mount Wellington was... - Mount Wellington was wonderful, and we were lucky enough to have a fine clear day. Would rate it as 5 star. The rest of the trip was disappointing. Needs more tour guide interaction.

Better value for money elsewhere. Research other companies. - We did a Mt Wellington/Richmond tour recently. Very expensive for what it was. Nothing included compared to other day trips. Could not hear the driver on the Mt Wellington part of the trip. The Richmond part the driver seemed to be in a hurry. Some of the things listed we didn’t see and the optional things were not offered.
