Well organized trip, owner Tom is really nice. Guided us along the way and on the mountain, with detailed info about NZ such as landscape and history knowledge. Volcano also looks cool and unique. We even had a chance to see the Hook Fall, and the coolest Mcdonald’s in the world????????. Lunch was good as well. Would def recommend this trip????????

We decided at the last minute to hire a private tour guide on our visit to New Zealand. The owner Tom had to jump through a few hoops to fit us in. We are so happy we did. We definitely saw so many sites we would never have seen without an experienced guide. Tom’s love of the environment and history of the area is highly evident by his knowledge and commitment. Thank you, John & Nancy Weber

Really excellent experience with Foris! Our guide Karl was fantastic and explained a lot of NZ’s history along the drive to Tongariro. The tour was a fairly easy walk and we had a wonderful lunch at the waterfall. He even made a special stop at another falls for us to check out on the way back. Definitely recommend and hope to be back for another tour. Thank you, Karl!!
