We stayed in this place for two days. We stayed here for one night. The environment is large and the room is very large. All kinds of facilities are very good, which is worthy of the price. The parking space is also good, and the places we are very close.

Tauranga

New Zealand is all about adventure — so for one of my first adrenaline-pumping activities, I did white water rafting on the world’s HIGHEST commercially rafted waterfall with Kaitiaki Adventures! I was incredibly nervous at first because the rapids were strong, but in the end it became extremely fun! We basically went through Kaituna River, over 14 rapids and 3 waterfalls which includes the 7meter Tutea Falls (thee said highest commercially rafted waterfall in the whole world!) This is definitely a MUST for you to do when in New Zealand!
