5.0/5
staying at the lovely taumarunui holiday park, my hosts helene & phil helped me wonderfully planning my kajak trip down the whanganui river with blazing paddles.
since I am traveling on foot, the friendly folks from b.p picked me up at the camp, helped pack the boat and made sure that everything went smooth and safe.
everything was done in a very friendly & professional manner ! the pick up 4 and a half days down the river at pipiriki was a good example.
the guys from b.p arrived not only on time, but early !
the first company to load all the boats and drive the people back up to taumarunui.
thanx again for making this beautiful trip very special !

5.0/5
it's very rare, but sometimes when traveling for many months, you get to a place that has that special feel.
a great vibe, that wants you to just stay for a while.
when I met helene and phil it was clear to me, that I will
stay at their lovely park, next to that wonderful river, in
walking distance to the great town of taumarunui, for
longer than just 1 night. it added up to a week.
I did the ruapehu circuit, getting slowly ready for the whanganui river journey.
my hosts where immensely helpful planning my kajak
trip. the site itself is beautiful. the facilities spotless, and
the people staying there, felt like family.
I met wonderful people there.
n joy staying at this wonderful park !
thanx again !
