Enjoyed the beautiful trip out to the west coast. Saw the black sand beach and some absolutely stunning views along the coast at a couple of viewpoints. Stopped for lunch at a terrific little place in Swenson. Went to a nesting spot for the gannets which was a surprise stop since this is the time of the year for them to nest before moving on to Australia. It was a wonderful day trip and would definitely do it again!

Nancy was our driver/tour guide she was an excellent driver, tour guide, and she was also caring about each passenger. She’s very knowledgeable and we enjoyed her sense of humor. She’s engaged with each passenger and we felt part of her little family for the day. We thoroughly enjoyed our tour and felt we had seen enough to get a great idea of the area.

Jason, our tour guide, was fabulous. We were to have been on a group tour but got a private instead (THANK YOU).
Scenic drive to Piha was beautiful. The black sand beach and Lion Rock were so amazing and serene. Next stop was Karekare waterfall. Total must see experience. Incredibly wonderful day!!! Thank you ….
