Great for Lord of the Rings fans!
However a little pricey, and commercialised for my liking. Very popular which diminishes the experience a little. Bus loads of 40+ people get herded onto buses every 15 minutes in peak season.

Great fun, good value for money compared to the Zorb rides.
Get at least a 3 ride combo and you can try out the different tracks. I suggest going down the scenic to get the hang of it and then head to the advanced for some fast thrills.

Amazing 50m + Redwoods.
Sight to be seen from underneath looking up at them swaying in the wind. Very cool fresh springs are an added bonus to this great spot. Must see.

Amazing spot right on the beach.
A great fee secret spot, that is not so secret anymore. But still great none the less.

Overall pretty good.
A little disorganised, took about one hour to get our van (was being cleaned etc). Van is great, however could do with a little maintenance.... waste water tank leaked (hose was full of holes).

4.5/5
Great location right on the waters edge.
Very windy road to the site is well worth it, stop at the top for a great lookout of the amazing Sounds. DOC site, left after the bridge.

Very, very busy, however unpowered sites are nice.
Go for a walk down to the river. Good facilities and hot showers.

Adam was great.
Ex jetboat racer so knows his way around a jetboat. Very friendly and knowledgeable. Do 'the squeeze' for some thermal waterfalls!
