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.

The Best Tour to Coromandel Peninsula
It was amazing, our tour guide, Pearl, did an excellent job with this tour, the snacks, the timing, the scenery, everything was perfect.

A lovely day tour to Coromandel
Had a great time on this small group tour to the Coromandel Peninsula. Pearl was a fabulous guide, I especially appreciated the group text to keep us up to date on everything. The hike to Cathedral cove was a challenge, but beautiful and the hot water beach was crazy chaos. It was a long day that ended in ice cream with stunning nature in between.

Cathedral Cove trip - hot beach cool water
Amazing trip, thanks to the guides and the weather, were able to visit all the locations as planned. Huge thanks for our travel guides Jaime and Jayme (sorry if I spelt it wrong). Learnt so much about the history and fauna of Aotearoa New Zealand.

Breathtaking scenery experience with new found friends
This is an iconic tour and as a solo traveler I had the unexpected joy of meeting lots of great people! The tour guide even sang Christmas carols to our group we had such good vibes.

Wonderful Tour and Very Professional Guide!
Cathedral Cove is so beautiful! Nice hike and beautiful beach! Our tour guide Ari is very professional, always ask us if we have any questions, very knowledgeable about the tour and mew zealand history. She guides us accordingly, tells us what’s happening on the tour and advises us what’s next. Excellent Job!

Pasamos un bonito día. Son muchas horas de bus, pero merecen la pena para conocer desde Auckland esos escenarios únicos.

Friendly tour guide snd a relaxing tour of some beautiful places
This was such a wonderful experience, Mark was a great tour guide, very friendly, chill and really brought the group together. He was very informative and allowed us plenty of time to enjoy each place without feeling rushed. We had plenty of stops there and back and saw some beautiful sites and hot water beach was a great experience. Would highly recommend if you’re apprehensive about guided tours as I was.

A Day to Remember!
My husband and I booked a full-day tour to Hobbiton and the Waitomo Glowworm Caves with Cheeky Kiwi Travel, and it ended up being one of the highlights of our time in New Zealand. Hobbiton truly is magical. Even as someone who hasn’t seen the movies, I was completely charmed by the setting — the rolling green hills, the attention to detail, and the sheer care that has gone into preserving the site. It’s one of those places that feels special the moment you arrive and is absolutely not to be missed. The Waitomo Glowworm Caves added an entirely different kind of magic. The caves themselves are stunning, and drifting through while thousands of glowworms light up the darkness is surreal and unforgettable. That said, the best part of the entire day was our guide, Jeoff. He was incredibly organized, kept everything running smoothly, and made what could have been a long day feel effortless. His knowledge of New Zealand — its history, culture, and geography — was impressive, and he shared it in a way that was engaging rather than overwhelming. Add in his quick wit, great sense of humor, and excellent driving, and the hours flew by. If you’re considering this tour, I can’t recommend it enough — especially if you’re lucky enough to have Jeoff as your guide. He genuinely elevated the experience from a great tour to an exceptional one.

Highly recommend this tour
司機準時接送，開車亦有介紹沿途景色，十分專業。時間安排妥當，有定時安排去廁所/小休時間，午餐質素挺好。哈比村的導遊亦很專業有趣,景色優美。我對於這個團及Cheeky Kiwi旅行社十分滿意！ Highly recommend Cheeky Kiwi for all of you. Pick up on time, our tour guide aka driver is professional, nice and helpful. Time arrangement is good and the lunch is good as well. We got plenty of time to go to washrooms/ buy some snacks from time to time. Tours in hobbiton and cave are good as well. I am very satisfied with this tour!

Amazing
the tour was wonderful and the hiring of cheeky kiwi was spot on. The van that picked us up was super comfortable, with cup holders. Our driver Rich was super punctual, friendly and an excellent driver, always concerned about safety, which is very important since it takes three hours to get there and three hours to get back. The visit to Hobitton was spectacular, a dream come true! Afterwards we had a delicious lunch included in the package which was super worth it and we headed to the Waitomo caves which was super worth it. Even though the price was a little high, I think it was worth every penny, I don't regret it.

Brilliant!
The whole trip was great. Kim our driver/guide was fun, informative and friendly. Hobbiton was a revelation and Flavian, our guide, was very knowledgeable and enthusiastic. Enjoyed it hugely. Waitomo Caves were a magical and special experience. Again our guide, one of the family descended from the Maori finder of the caves, was Fantastic. Overall an excellent day. Thank you Cheeky Kiwi!
