Fantastic Mt. Tarawera Experience
Fantastic guides Dan and AJ gave us a great insight into local culture and took great care of us all as we completed the trek. We shared amazing views and experiences as we went round the volcano rim and down into the crater. What a privilege to be part of such a great experience.

Amazing walk in the volcano!
We had an amazing time with Maui and Tai! They were so sweet and interesting, we learn a lot about the history of the land and we had so much fun hiking up and running down the volcano! Perfect weather as well 🤞

一段令人難忘的旅程
十分推薦此行程，可一覽壯闊的火山景象，隨著嚮導的步伐深入火山底部，過程雖然驚險，但嚮導經驗豐富可信賴，此外進出保護區的山路是另一個驚喜，是真實的踫跳過山車！！
