I have seldomnly felt as good as in here. The person was highly knowledgable and really took into account what we wanted before giving us information. GREAT.

Very friendly and helpful. The weather forecast was very bad and the guy in the office pointed one walk where the rain would not be that bad. Had a great four hour walk without rain.

Friendly, clean, we already knew what we wanted to do, so cannot really say how helpful they would have been. Told us about freedom camping sites, checked with Rankers - it was correct information.
Thank You - to the thousands of travellers that have contributed to our Top Voted NZ Activities Map - it's free from Rankers.

We got the information we needed (free campground, tracks) and they were friendly. Compared to our holiday in Australia we feel people there (Australia) love to tell you more and love chatting to you more.

Seemed like a good information source if you are doing a multi-day tramp. I did not have time this trip but the staff were open for a chat.
