We are more than a shuttle service! We stop off at local hot spots & provide commentary along the way, adding to the experience.
We are owned and operated by a Rotorua local and you can't beat local knowledge! Need recommendations? Just ask our friendly driver guides.
What our other guests have said
The Waimangu part of the tour in particular blew me away. Wasn't expecting the valley trail to be so beautiful. Thomas, my tour guide for the day, was kind, gracious, and very knowledgeable - would definitely recommend his service and Thermal Land's tour package to everyone.

We had an amazing day touring Wai-O-Tapu and Waimangu. Our shuttle was on time and well organized. Our guide, Akika, was incredible. As we were visiting during the off-season and were the only family on his shuttle he took us to a few extra spots along the way, some of which were the highlight...

At Waimangu things are organised really well and even though a couple of paths were closed due to flooding, they have shuttles with really friendly drivers to get you around in good time. The boat trip was absolutely brilliant and you must add it on if you can!
