Susan picked my wife and I up at the cruise ship terminal. She was very friendly, attentive to our needs, interesting to talk to, an excellent driver and informative during our trip. The Waitomo Glow Worm Cave is unique and worth seeing but no photos are permitted. Hobbiton exceeded our expectations. Susan handled all the details including pit stops.
