Me and my husband went and we got to learn tons of interesting and amazing things about Rotorua and the sites we saw but also about New Zealand's early history, we loved knowing what our beloved Kiwis are called that name. It was wonderful to spend time at the spa, one of the most beautiful spa's we have ever visited. The view is just stunning. Our guide David was enthusiastic, knowledgeable and always ready to help us with anything we needed. He actually ran to us to give us umbrellas when some mild rain started to fall. He also showed us a place visited more by locals than turists and it was wonderful. This is a must do activitie!

Day trip to Rotorua and Wai-O-Tapu. Two exceptional sites in terms of geothermal activity. Our guide, Wayne, was fantastic throughout this very long day (from 6:00 a.m. until 6:30 p.m.). Attentive and friendly, he shared many interesting stories about New Zealand’s history and geography. We had a wonderful day, ending with a visit to the Polynesian spa. I highly recommend this magnificent excursion. Jean-Francois (New Caledonia)

I had an excellent trip to Rotorua—truly beyond my expectations. Although I've visited Rotorua many times before, this trip felt like a completely new experience. One of my biggest concerns beforehand was the long drive from Auckland. I had been dealing with some back pain and physical discomfort, so I was quite nervous about it. However, the car was so comfy n the ride was incredibly smooth. It was not at all tiring as anticipated but much more enjoyable experience. What really made the trip special was our guide. His knowledge of New Zealand was outstanding, and he shared fascinating insights about the country throughout the day. Even after living here for six years, I learned so many things I had never known before. He was also extremely friendly, accommodating, and genuinely passionate about what he does. Overall, the entire day was wonderful from start to finish. The combination of a comfortable journey, an informative and engaging guide, and a well-organized experience made this one of my most memorable trips to Rotorua. I would highly recommend it to anyone looking for a relaxing, enjoyable, and enriching day out.

We did the Auckland to Waitomo Glowworms, Kiwi House & Blue Springs day tour, and had our experience with David. He was a great tour guide who gave us so much information and who had such a lovely personality. Even from being tired from so much travelling he continued to give us stories about New Zealand history. We loved this experience and would definitely do it again.

Our Coromandel tour with Expedigo Limited was truly an unforgettable experience. Every moment of the trip was enjoyable, and we created memories that will stay with us for a long time. The Coromandel is one of the most beautiful places I have ever visited. If you are someone who loves nature, this destination is a must-see. It feels like a masterpiece created by nature itself, with breathtaking coastal views, lush landscapes, and peaceful surroundings. A special thank you to our guide, Jamie, for being so friendly, knowledgeable, and professional throughout the journey. We also sincerely appreciate the excellent service provided by Expedigo Limited, which made the entire experience smooth and enjoyable. I highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting New Zealand. We had an amazing time, and we are already looking forward to travelling with Expedigo Limited again, hopefully next time with our whole family.
