    Well organised tour with a delicious BBQ at the beach.

    The drive on 90 Mile Beach was interesting, the sandboarding was fun. We had enough time at the Cape to walk. Just the time in the bus was quite long. Another stop would have been great.

    Although it was a very good day we spent the day hungry as the brochure said there would be a stop at a cafe for lunch, but this never happened, so we had to wait till we were finished the trip at 4pm

    for lunch. Also as it was raining the day finished a couple of hours early. Would have been nice to have seen/stopped at as we passed the furthest pub to the north. Love the sandboarding!

    It was a nice experience to drive over the beach.

    Sandboarding was great fun, and Cape Reinga was very beautiful.

    We went up to Cape Reinga.

    Was OK but pricey and exhausting, we find Cape Reinga is worth seeing, but we'd do it differently if we did it again.

    Limited appeal to older age groups.

    Inadequate info given prior to the tour. Excellent tour guide. A long day - serious journey, partly due to weather.

    Awesome trip!

    Driver was very knowledgeable. Truck/coach very clen and comfortable for the long day trip. Dune surfing was fantastic, although quite tough going. The stop at the fish and chip shop on the way home is an excellent way to end this awesome trip to a very special part of New Zealand!

    Quite long but lots of stops including fish n chips on the way home which kept the kids happy. Dune riding fantastic, but only able to manage 2 rides as dunes so high! Take plenty of snacks to eat on bus.
