Rings Scenic Tours
4.0/5
Great scene!
More hobbit houses than I expected, also nice gardens with real vegetables, clotheslines..... (many details!), but unfortunately empty houses - except for the pub. Good that you could go in there and have a beer in there, too less time, sad that you can do it just guided.

A C Baths
5.0/5
Great bath with a big range of different swimming pools, waterslides and even a sauna included in the entry (+ free entry on the date of re-opening).

Huka Honey Hive
4.0/5
You can try a huge range of honey and other bee products for free, interesting information about bees (I really like documentary you could watch there and that you could sit there in front of the documentary
- TV very cosy with many pillows etc). But products when you wanted to buy them very expensive, great that you could look into the beehives.

North Island ▷ Northland ▷ Dargaville ▷
Waipoua Forest Camping Area
1.0/5
Huts out of very thin wood, something scratched on the door at night - scary!
Poor kitchen (only one plate and 2 forks, one broken).

North Island ▷ Rotorua Region ▷ Rotorua ▷
Rotorua isite Visitor Information Centre
1.5/5
Many flyers etc, but the woman we talked to did not speak such good english and gave us wrong information.
-
North Island ▷ Taupo Region ▷ Taupo ▷
Taupo Information Centre
2.5/5
Like a normal i-site, informative, but often so many people that you have to wait a long time and personnel were quite stressed.

Spa Park
5.0/5
First (and only) hot springs we found for free, very nice and warm (hot) water, different pools with different temperatures, next to a cold river (nice to change warm and cold), they looked nice and you
could get a massage from the waterfalls.

North Island ▷ Taupo Region ▷ Taupo ▷
Huka Falls Walkway
3.5/5
Nice view when you arrive but not that much during the walk, after walking you can go into the hot springs and have a rest.

Bluebridge Cook Strait Ferry
3.0/5
Quite a normal ferry, but very nice that you could just lay down at a few places and sleep there (without booking a cabin).

North Island ▷ Ruapehu ▷ Tongariro / National Park Village ▷
Tongariro Alpine Crossing
4.5/5
Nice walk, great experience, made me to experience my physical limit, great views, especially the emerald lakes with their really, really great colour (not 10 because of wrong time information - we took
10 hours!).

Hipapatua / Reid's Farm Recreation Reserve Free Campsite
5.0/5
Great campground for free (even for non self-contained vehicles), next to a very beautiful river.
Near great activities, you meet many nice people, not only other tourists but also locals, nice plum trees.
