Discovery Lodge Campground
Peaceful, tranquil setting.
Basic ammenities but loads of character. Decent food at restaurant. Terrifice shuttle to crossing - earliest in the morning. That is why we chose it but were thrilled with the place.

Not very friendly guy at check in.
Kind of ratty place right in town. Lots of flies, not much scenery,

Tongariro Alpine Crossing
Awesome day!
We had beautiful weather, no wind, so warm but nice on the exposed sections. Incredibly well maintained track - never seen one so nice.

Waitomo Caveworld
Had reservations with another company (Legendary Black Water Rafting Co) but too much rain so river too high.
They were great about it but we were thrilled to get on with Cave World. Good experience - guide pretty good but routine seemed a bit tired. Can't blame them.

The Sea Kayak Company
Awesome experience!
Well organised, GREAT guide - mellow, knowledgable, yummy food. 3 day trip was AMAZING! Highly recommend it - Kayaked with dolphins (a bit of luck there!) and swam with them from the aqua taxi on the return. Aqua taxi drive awesome, went out of his way so we could see/swim with dolphins. Bring cycling gloves for tender hands.
