Stories worth sharing

Not good but GREAT 👍🏼

It was my husband and myself as there was no other booking . Cheeky kiwi was so kind enough not to cancel the tour. Our driver cum guide MAX made us feel like a VIP. He took great care of us and made sure we were well fed and rested in the van . He also offered us snacks. The drive was long and while we slept, he made sure to give us a safe and smooth ride. The company was also very responsive and made all communications seamless. Strongly recommended if you are looking for not good but GREAT guides for your day trip in Auckland.
