Worst Day of our lives!!
Loiuse_W
, Jan 2022
Bitterly dissatisfied & disappointed. We were so excited, woke up early travelled 1/2 hour to get to pick up point and paid $13 for parking. It was going to be Mother & Daughter special time and ended up with daughter traumatised and upset when no-one came to pick us up. I tried calling the operator on the booking schedule. He eventually answered saying that he has been doing tours for a while and well tough luck for you and not his problem. Keeping in mind we had already paid $510. I then tried various numbers with ‘number is not operational’. At this stage I too am in tears!! Eventually get hold of a help centre (not even in NZ mind) who kept on saying yesterday and tomorrow as they were in a different time zone- I had to explain this 3 times at least. Admittedly the young lady was very helpful in the end, although it’s still going to take 5-7days for me to get my money back which is very inconvenient at this time of the year!!!! I do NOT recommend this site as they just take your Money and booking without confirming of the operator is even operating!!! What was meant to be a special day with my daughter turned into an upsetting, traumatic, tearful and disappointing experience. I wouldn’t advise you put your friends or family at risk of this sort of disappointment

Total fun on a tour of hot water beach, cathedral cove and ?peka? mountain. Our guide was extremely knowledgeable and lots of fun. Come ready for a moderately strenuous hike if you do the cove

This was a spectacular day! If you want to get away from it all, go to the Coromandel. George, our guide, was a wealth of information and we had a good laugh while seeing gorgeous scenery. Be prepared for some good hiking.

Fabulous trip, great guide (Jojo). We saw countryside, beautiful beaches, waterways, bush and country towns. There were 2 walks to break up the vehicle travel, both fabulous. Thoroughly enjoyed this day. Highly recommend it if you want to see as much as possible in one day.

A Great Day out to Coromandel

My wife and I were collected very early in the morning by George in a minibus, with 2 other couples and a single, and taken to Hot Water Bay with a coffee stop along the way. George knew exactly where to dig for hot water for best effect. Great fun! Swimming costume required - you have to experience this! Changing facilities at the beach. Then after an early lunch we went to Cathedral Cove which was magnificent. This involved quite a long walk with a good climb back so be prepared for this; good walking shoes are recommended. Our final visit was to Mount Paku with a short but stiff climb to the top. Well worth the effort for the stunning 360 degree view from the top. George was very amusing and kept us entertained with anecdotes - some of which may have been a bit tall! But overall he was a great guide and clearly very knowledgeable about local flora, fauna and language. We had a thoroughly enjoyable day.

Perfect way to squeeze in Coromandels highlights

I did this trip because I had some time solo and wanted to see Coromandel. George picked me up and he was super friendly and a really helpful/ positive host who catered the varied needs of the group well and also was able to find a weatherproof plan. I enjoyed all the stops, it was a great trip. I would have liked longer at certain spots but it is a day trip and it would be easy to fill a few days there.
