Cheeky Kiwi Travel-Hobbiton Movie Set

We found this tour very enjoyable plus informative and interesting stories by Liam who, in our opinion, is an asset not only for Cheeky Kiwi Travel but also for the NZ tourism industry. To the professional tour guide Liam - thank you! Regards Esmond & Marina

Amazing experience

We had the best time, it’s my partners first time out of Australia and he said he loved every minute of it ☺️ Definitely be back again with family and friends. Cheeky Micheal was the man, he knew everything about Maori culture which I love hearing about. Best part about the tour was the ice cream 👀😂 just kidding But overall was a amazing experience and what only makes it even better is when you have a amazing tour guide who knows his stuff and is also Cheeky 😂 Thank yous for having us ☺️

Exceptional Hobbiton Tour with Cheeky Kiwi’s Mike

Our Hobbiton tour today was absolutely wonderful. Our Cheeky Kiwi guide, Mike, made the entire experience smooth, welcoming, and memorable. He was incredibly kind and very mindful about connecting with people from different nationalities, ensuring everyone felt included and informed. Mike gave clear instructions, shared helpful safety guidelines, and offered water throughout the day. He was knowledgeable, engaging, and made the journey feel relaxed and enjoyable. He even stopped for ice cream on the way back to Auckland, which was such a thoughtful touch. At the end of the tour, he made sure we were safely dropped off at our hotel. Truly excellent service from start to finish. Highly recommend this tour and especially Mike.

Two Thumbs up for Cheek Kiwi Tour Guide Grant

Grant was a great tour guide! Very knowledgeable and provided fun facts and dad jokes on the drive to and from Hobbiton! He made sure we had plenty of water & even gave us a snack & made a stop for ice cream! We were even ahead of schedule & he was able to get us on an earlier tour & gave us tips on how to best enjoy the Hobbiton tour! Mahalo Grant for a good time!

Milford Sound plus other stops in a small group

From the time we were picked up and dropped off at our hotel 13 hrs transpired and traveled about 380 miles. Jason our guide and driver stopped as many places as he could to checkout the natural wonders of the area before we boarded a boat in Milford Sound. Being in a small group allowed him to stop at places a bus could not do He talked about these places and any animals that may be in the area. We were provided a lunch by Jason that we could eat on the boat and the boat provided hot drinks during our 2 hour cruise. Milford Sound was magnificent place as well as the other stops along the way. The whole trip was well worth your time especially touring with a small group.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ An Incredible Milford Sound Experience!

The Premium Milford Sound Small Group Tour from Queenstown was an absolutely fantastic experience from start to finish. The scenery was breathtaking, the journey was comfortable, and the small-group experience made the day feel relaxed and personal. A special mention must go to our tour guide, Hannah, who was truly amazing. She was friendly, knowledgeable, professional, and incredibly attentive throughout the entire journey. Hannah shared so much interesting information about the history, nature, and surroundings, while also making the trip fun and engaging. Her enthusiasm and genuine care for everyone in the group really made a difference. She did an excellent job of making sure everyone was comfortable, knew what was happening, and had plenty of opportunities to enjoy the spectacular views and take photos. You could tell that Hannah genuinely loves what she does, and that made the experience even more memorable. Milford Sound itself was simply spectacular, and having such a wonderful guide made the entire day even more special. Highly recommend this tour, and if you get Hannah as your guide, you’re in for a real treat! A truly memorable experience that I would happily do again. 🌿🏔️🚐✨

Snowy mountains, pristine rivers, and a beautiful Fiord

Astonishing views during the ride and the cruise was the cherry on top! Benny, our guide, was very knowledgeable and attentive of our needs. The stops along the way were spot on, Benny’s indications about ETAs and suggested activities helped to enhance the experience, we loved the short walk on the mirror lakes!!! Bonus points: apparently we got lucky and saw dolphins, crested penguins and sea lions, but YMMV. one more thing, pro tip: get your souvenirs from the Alpine Centre Cafe at Te Anau, you won’t get better prices and variety of souvenirs as they have Absolutely recommended tour if you don’t want or if you can’t drive all the way from Queenstown to Milford Sound

Personable experience!

Just expressing the only downside off the bat- booking through Airbnb made the experience a little confusing regarding pickup spot/time BUT- other than that, everything went very smoothly. I love that cheeky kiwi is in a smaller van compared to the tour buses with 30+ people. It made the experience very efficient and personable. Our tour guide Jason was great, had a lot of jokes & wisdom to share with the group. Our lunch was very good, plenty of stops and the boat ride was gorgeous. I would definitely recommend/book with them again :)
