Too professional.
Money-making machine! Good fun up in the air, but too organized. We didn't have time to say goodbye to the instructor (on our back) before he left on another airplane!
Hi Mille,
Thank you for your comments.
Please can you elaborate on what you mean by "too professional?"
February is one of our busiest months and there are occasions when the Tandem Masters go from one plane load to the next. This is to cope with the demand of being the most popular company to skydive with. All of our tandem masters are trained to build rapport with each customer and this includes saying goodbye after the skydive. I am sorry you didn't experience this and I will follow up your comments.
I'm glad you had fun in the air and hope you enjoy the rest of your travels.
From Bex and Taupo Tandem Skydiving Team

Tourist thing.
You will see a geyser and hear the sound of 1000 SLR cameras.

Castle Point Lighthouse Walk
Walk to the hill opposite the lighthouse and climb it to get a very nice view.
Explore the beach 10 mins drive from Castlepoint (North). You will find a vertical rock beach.

Good fun.
Cool, funny people. We took a dive course. Professional, but in a fun way. If you want to dive, Dive North!

East Cape Campground
Ok fish and chips.
Don't go there if you are planning to use the facilities. Wild dog in the backgarden, nice people though.

Green Glow eco-adventures
Caving, abseiling, rock climbing.
Small group (only the 2 of us). We choose what we wanted to do in 7 hours. Value for money ($100 per person). Very dedicated and professional instructor.

Waiotapu Thermal track and Mud Pools
Hot stream with sulpher, nice area for relaxing and a hot bath.
Walk a bit down the stream and find a waterfall and a pool.

Cape Brett Track
A bloody steep track up and down all the way.
Not a beginners track, offering bush and a lot of hills, the last part is quite beautiful (view to the coast and sea). Nice hut to stay in.
