10/10 experience!

We had a fantastic time with Jeoff from Cheeky Kiwi! He was absolutely amazing, so full of knowledge- answered any and all questions. Super impressive! He went the extra mile and we had a super time. The views were spectacular from beginning to end. And an added bonus was the lunch stop, it was absolutely delicious and on the house made it all more enjoyable 😁 Could not recommend this company more, definitely book with them and hopefully you’ll be lucky enough to have Jeoff as your guide!!

Coastal adventure and beautiful nature

We had a great tour in Coromandel in a small fun group. The guide Trent the rock Star was super funny and showed us great spots as well as doing a good shop as a photographer. There were also small snacks and something to drink on the bus and enough breaks. Great coastal adventure and beautiful nature. Our highlight Cathendral Cove ā¤ļø who wants to experience what and likes adventure should do this tour.

A great day on the Coromandel Peninsula

What a lovely day visiting the Coromandel Peninsula! Our guide Trent really went the extra mile to make our experience memorable. We were a small group so Trent took us on a couple of great walks to get the best photos of beaches and flora. We got to spend time at Cathedral Cove and a few other beaches. Trent is very knowledgeable on the Coromandel and also pointed out special nature reserves that are preserving the Kauri trees. We drove by bird reserves across from the peninsula and so much more. Trent was a wonderful guide and truly went out of his way to give us a special day with lots of memories and so many photos 😊.

Great solo experience with a fantastic guide

I joined the tour as a solo traveler and English is not my first language, but Ben made everything easy and enjoyable. He was very warm and enthusiastic, and he kept sharing interesting stories throughout the trip. There were nine people in our group, and everyone had a great time. The atmosphere was friendly and relaxed. I really enjoyed the experience and would definitely recommend it.

Cheeky Kiwi are the way to go for a truly fun day out!

Where to start with this grear value tour. Sun; sea and seemingly endless fun! Ben our tour guide and driver set the tone for the day with his jovial, high sprited demeanor; even st 6.15am when he arrived at my hotel. What greeted us on a warm white sand beach after a two houe drive was like a scene from a movie. Well as Ben informed us, the stunning Cathederal Cove location was used in the film Narnia. Numerous photo captures and videos later we progressed onto the Hot Water sand each with bucket and spade in hand to dig our very own hot pool to la languish in only 20 to 30 metres in from the sea shore. Amazingly hot water gushes up from the sand after only digging a few feet. It's a fab communal activity and great for team/group bonding. Then one can go for a refeshing dip in the inviting ocean afterwards (Don't forget your swimwear) Overall this tour is truly the best way to spend the dsy if looking to book a tour and Cheeky Kiwi are the way to go for the all round fun experience. Highly recommended.

Great day out to the Coromandel Peninsula

Fabulous scenery, fun and knowledgeable guide, nice pace - it did not feel rushed at all. In terms of finding lunch during the lunch break, the Hahei ice crema and eatery is fine but not amazing.

5/5 experience

The van we rode in was perfect, not crowded, and with humongous leg room. Mark is an excellent tour guide and driver—not to energetic but not boring either.

Excellent Organisation and a Wonderful Experience

Title: A Wonderful, Well-Organised Experience We absolutely loved this tour! Everything was perfectly organised and punctual. Our guide and driver was fantastic, sharing interesting facts about the places we visited. The stops and schedule were very well planned, with almost no waiting or queues. Lunch was included, with very generous portions, and we were provided with snacks and water throughout the trip. A lovely surprise was getting the chance to meet and feed an ostrich! Highly recommended!

Great adventure!

Hobbiton and Waitomo day trip was excellent! We were a mix of first-timers and return visitors and we all enjoyed the trip thoroughly. Ali (Alessandro) our guide was an excellent driver and he managed the group well, was entertaining, informative, fun and chill. The guides in Hobbiton and Waitomo were fun and knowledgeable as well. There were adequate rest stops for stretching legs, getting snacks, and restroom break. Snacks and water were provided as well. Only downside was the seats in the vehicle which were a bit narrow and has limited legroom for above-average size person. Overall, though, great tour

Amazing and entertaining

Hobbiton and Witomo Glow worm cave were both AMAZING. Our Hobbiton guide, Flavian was informative and entertaining. Liam, our Cheeky Kiwi driver and guide was absolutely the best, going above and beyond to ensure we had a great time. Thanks Liam. I would recommend this tour to anyone who enjoys scenic drive into the country, any movie buff but especially to any LOTR fans. Book with Cheeky Kiwi

A wonderful day at Hobbiton and the Waitomo Caves

The trip was perfect with well planned breaks, a wonderful tour of Hobbiton, and great walking and boating tour of the amazing Waitomo Caves with the glow worms. One thing that helped make our tour especially meaningful was our very kind, interesting, humorous, and safe-driving guide, Mike,

Perfect Journey

Itā€˜s a really interesting trip, all of the schedule are well arranged. More importantly, We’d like to give a huge thanks to Jeoff for his kindness. One of us accidentally lost a credit card, and Jeoff found it and went out of his way to return it to our hotel. We really appreciate the time and effort he took to help us. It was such a thoughtful and trustworthy gesture, and it saved us a lot of trouble during our trip. Thank you again, Jeoff! Your kindness truly made our day. We had a wonderful trip and really enjoyed our time here. Highly recommended!

Massive, fantastic Hobbiton and Gloworm day!

What an amazing day! Definitely the highlight of our honeymoon so far! Ale our guide was fantastic, full of interesting info on all things Kiwi! The entire trip was really smoothly done and no hassle with anything, door to door service was great. Loved being able to just enjoy everything as it was so well organised we didn’t have to think of a thing! Lunch was huge and tasty! We have another cheeky kiwi tour booked for Friday and I’m sure it will be great too!!
