Great day at Wai-O-Tapu with Geoff We had a fantastic day visiting Wai-O-Tapu and the Redwoods Forest. Trixie met us right at the cruise port, making everything easy and stress-free from the start. Geoff was an excellent guide — friendly, knowledgeable, and informative. He shared interesting highlights and local insights throughout the drive, which made the journey just as enjoyable as the destinations. The guided walk through Wai-O-Tapu was well-paced and very informative. We also really appreciated that he accommodated our special request to drive through Te Puke on the way back to take a picture at the Kiwi Capital of the World — a great added touch to the day! We would definitely recommend Scott Tours. Thank you, Geoff, for such a memorable and enjoyable day!

Wonderful Wai-o-Tapu with Geoff A brilliant day with a New Zealand professional. Geoff was prompt to pick my husband and I up from the cruise terminal. His van was clean and comfortable. Geoff did a good job of managing our time as we arrived via cruise ship and had to be back early in the afternoon. Geoff’s knowledge of the thermal baths allowed us to move through the park focusing on the important highlights. He is a patient picture taker and accommodated our special requests. More importantly, he was a man of integrity and ran the tour even though the group was small. Wai-o-Tapu was a great place to visit made even more special as we had a professional directing our tour. Recommend Scott Tours highly.

Best Day!!! We met Geoff from Scott’s tours and he told us we’d have a really good experience…… He was not wrong!!!!

We then went went around a local park with a natural hot foot bath, then a high tree walk and finally a little walk around a forest….. What an amazing experience we had! Thank you Geoff!!!

Private tour for eight We had a great day in Rotorua and Tauranga. Geoff was so accommodating as we changed our mind last minute on some things. We did the Redwood Tree Walk, lunch at the Secret Spot and a quick stop at Kuirau Park to see geothermal activity. He also took us shopping. The day ran very smoothly and we saw everything we wanted to see and more! Thanks for the perfect private tour Geoff!

Great Rotorua trip with Maori village visit and much more with nice guide We originally had other booking for Tauranga area (Rotorua trip), but they could not do it and they recommended Scott Tour. We were just 2 of us for Rotorua day trip. Geoff was our driver and he organized for us Maori village visit (including dance / singing performance and hot springs walk). On top of that Geoff showed us kiwi vineyard, redwood forest and told us a lot of interesting things about Rotorua neighborhood, but also about New Zealand life. It was great value for money trip with very pleasant person.

Rotorua trip to Te Puia for 13 family members Cannot rate this tour company highly enough. From the moment I booked, they kept me informed at each point. Trixie and Geoff are so friendly and professional they handled everything seamlessly.

Fabulous day at Te Puia Rotarua Thanks to Trixie and Geoff for a well organised and informative tour. Prior to booking, they kept updated with timing changes for our ship arrival/departure, and during the tour they were so helpful and knowledgeable. Our family group of 13 all had an amazing day. Highly recommend their services.

Geothermal tour of Rotorua from Tauranga, New Zealand with Scott Tours Today we took a tour of the geothermal area of Rotorua, New Zealand. Geoff and Trixie of Scott Tours were very helpful in setting up the trip, and their phone number is on WhatsApp. Trixie met us at the Port Gate in Tauranga, and Geoff gave us an outstanding tour of the Waiotapu Thermal Park. We took a number of photos and videos of the geothermal features that captured the sights and sounds, but not the sulfurous odors. This tour is most highly recommended!
