More than enough seals for everyone and their mother.
If you want to get a close look at these creatures - this is the place to be. Just be mindful of your step, some of those seals take quite long naps.

A large mud pool.
This is exactly what you can expect. Nothing more nothing less.

Not exactly my cup of tea but the missus seemed to enjoy it.
The water had chunks of black goo in it even though the water seemed pretty clean. Expect a crowd, and a big one at that. We had to slither our way though a lot of people before finding a spot to cook in for a while.
Still a nice and unique experience.

The lady had no idea what was going on around her.
She tried though.

Just a bunch of birds doing bird stuff.
Alright views, spotted a view of those fancy birds wearing a tuxedo.

Superb facilities.
The kitchen was clean and the shower was hot. But kind of on the expensive side. $19 per person for an unpowered site. When I asked the lady for another wifi voucher (they give you 30 minutes for free) because there were two of us, she flat out refused. And the washing machine and dryer were 4 buckaroos a cycle.
Thanks for your review Ahmed Mohsen Aly! What a wonderful word 'Superb' is- Thankyou!! Sorry you felt we were expensive, at $20 per person we are the cheapest in town so feel we are fairly priced for this competitive market. The Wifi voucher on arrival is a complimentary gesture, we have very reasonable prices should you wish to purchase more.

Crowded and smelly.
The atmosphere didn't help either. The only thing this place has got going on for it is its location.

Not worth the money.
I've been to better free sites.

The walk to the Glacier was more interesting than the attraction itself.
When we started our walk it was hot and sunny. Half an hour into our walk it started pouring. So be prepared and don't let the sunshine fool you.

An amazing walk with intermittent beautiful views along the way.
We did this early in the morning so there weren't that many people.

Shorter walk than at Franz Josef.
The track gets pretty steep the last half kilometre. The Glacier was nicer than Josef.

Great activity when we just arrived in Auckland.
Seeing Auckland city centre from a distance was much nicer than actually being in the city centre. Free parking.

Maybe we arrived late?
I honestly don't know but it felt we were driving through some normal neighborhood.

Amazing view, though quite exhausting on a hot day so bring plenty of water.
And DO NOT GO OFF TRACK. We did and we regretted it.

We didn't really bother digging a hole because it was a bit windy.

A solid 10.
The motor-camp was well maintained and absolutely beautiful. The facilities were spotless with unlimited hot showers and the host, Tony, was amazingly helpful.
Be sure to call in advance if you're arriving late at night.
Many thanks for your lovely comments.

We even had a kiwi bro chilling with us at the end of the track as we ate jelly beans and waved at the boats.

We stayed in a non-self contained vehicle on recommendation by a family we met a bit down the road.
Great views, had a long drop toilet and is relatively quiet.

A bit pricey if you decide to pay.
But the geyser was amazing. Especially considering we have never seen one before. Some nice mud pools and thermals along the route.

Expect to be winded!
Quite a steep climb to the top but that's alright. We passed a few sheep making our way to the summit. You can see all kinds of kayakers and eco-friendly parachutists from the summit.

Great location, but oh man was that place packed!
We took the last spot and saw a few others come after us and leave. The road noises were almost unbearable with all the big trucks driving by.

Interesting walk.
First time seeing swing bridges. But the weather was bad which caused to water to be brownish instead of the beautiful blue it is known for.

Saw a bit of a reflection in the lake because we went in the afternoon.
But if you want a nice mirror-like reflection, go before 10am.

Couldn't help but smile as they were playing in the stream.

Worth a look around.

Very cheap.
The showers aren't included in the price and it's $2 for just 4 minutes. The warden didn't really bother with welcoming us. The most memorable thing about the place is the village itself honestly. The people are incredibly friendly!

We had an excellent stay at Aroha Island.
We arrived around midnight, the office and gate to the campsite were closed and we did not know how to get in. Fortunately there was a fellow camper outside the office instructing us to lift the chain from the gate and continue in. It was a bit confusing why they had a meaningless chain around the gate in the first place. We drove in and a guy greeted us in the morning and instructed us to pay at the office when we were ready to.
The campsite itself was excellent with beach access, nice facilities and friendly staff. $15 per person for an unpowered site.

We were greeted by a hoard of avian friends!
Ducks, roosters, finches ... I love birds so we played with them for a while before actually walking the track. The spring is absolutely stunning. The water was so clear and the redwoods were towering above us as we started our track. Would definitely recommend this short track.
