What a fabulous experience. My husband and I enjoyed the walk although it took us a little longer than expected and we only just made the boat. It was so exciting walking around each corner not knowing what we would see. The information was great to read and very interesting... so much that we learnt. The trip on the boat was lovely. The skipper, who was also the tour guide, shared so much history and brought our journey to life. He know his stuff and was able to answer questions as well. A definite MUST VISIT... you could only take pushchairs about half way around, but there are bus stops placed along the way if you get tired of walking.... The whole walk (including reading boards and taking photos) took us two hours. The boat trip was 45 minutes. Forgot to mention the cafe at the top. Really friendly staff, clean environment and yummy food. Only downside of the who visit was that the toilets were downstairs, down a driveway which I observed an elder lady struggling to get up and down.

This fantastic hour long adventure with two bubbly, knowledgeable guides led us to views to die for. The horses (mine was Evey and my husbands was Dougal) were well behaved and had obviously been well cared for and loved. The ride up the hill on the horses to our viewing point gave us so many opportunities to look around and chat. The horses were allocated according to our skill level. The ride up including flat, steep, straight, twisting and turnings... the scenery and trail always changing with no sign of boredom. Thanks to our two guides who were amazing and even took photos for us on our phones at the viewing point.... I'd do it again in a heart beat.

A lovely journey meandering through bush and landscape. The recorded onboard guide was really interested to listen to. We learnt so much. My husband and I were in a four seater car on our own and it was so relaxing and romantic. We cuddled up under the blankets provided and enjoyed the sights and sounds. Thanks so much to the lady who welcomed us and chatted with us about the history. The whole adventure had a sense of family and pride. It was our first stop on our Rotorua holiday and we loved it.
