"Great stay for a shuttle to Tongariro Alpine Trail! Dutchy was a wonderful shuttle driver for an early morning excursion, and you’ll get a bonus mini-tour from him on the way. :) s welcoming as coming home, peaceful and quiet location, shops and restaurants within walking distance. Places close early so plan accordingly! To fellow hikers, you can do it if I could. Happy trails!"
