We went to Cape Reinga lighthouse with Harrisons Cape Runner.

They will pick you up from your accommodation. Jason our driver was helpful and funny, we went up 90 mile beach down the sand dunes on boards so much fun , had a nice lunch on a lovely beach .A few other stops on the way back to Kaitaia, great value for 70 dollars, Excellent day a must do for everyone

This 1 day trip was excellent, so glad we took it rather than self drive.

Jason our driver was funny and informative, loved the beach ride and same boarding, lunch food and location where great. Excellent value for money.

I did the Cap Reinga tour along the 90 mile beach with Harrisons.

It was a great tour! Driving on the 90 mile beach, seeing and walking along Cap Reinga, and the sand tobagganing was something special and so much fun!

I can totally recommend!

As a suggestion, it would be great to have more time on Cape Reinga, our visit was a bit rushed.

Not worth the money, lots of little side trips to fill out the 'full' day when really we would have been better driving ourselves and stopping off at 90 Mile Beach.

Nice tour to a few beaches, which are not over crowded.

One hour stop at the impressive Cape Reinga. Sand dune surfing if you want to. Fast drive over 90 Mile Beach.

A perfect trip to Cape Reinga with several pleasant stops.

Sandboarding the dunes was really funny. Driver really kind! Well organised, a good full day!

I received good information by the driver about the history of the Kauri.

The lunch break was in the price and a lot of stops was good too.

Beautiful tour, nice and many stops.

Friendly, funny driver. Kids enjoyed as well, sandboarding is fun!

It is a great day trip.

You can see a lot on your way to Cape Reinga, like Rarawa Beach and Tapotupotu Bay. You can toboggan down a sand sune and the coach driver gives you a lot of interesting information. We loved it.

Great driver, really informative and lots of local information.

Took the hassle out of the trip up 90 mile beach. Could get better boards for the dune riding.

Cheap and you get what you pay for!

Half the price of the Fullers one and it included lunch so seemed like a good deal for our family of 5.

Buses a bit old andrun down, our seat smelled of stale urine.

The driver was okay but his nature facts were wrong!

Was very unhappy to have to stop twice at the Awanui Kauri Museum, which is really just a tourist trap and very expensive souvenir shop. Once would have been fine, thanks!

Also there were other unnecessary stops, like at the ice cream shop at 11:00 in the morning! Obviously Harrisons are getting a kickback from these places but they all add to delays in getting to the destination.

We had lunch before we got to the Cape, which was pretty measly and consisted of dry scones and packet muesli bars and crackers - not even any fresh fruit!

A filled roll and a piece of fruit would have been far, far better and probably only cost the same to supply.

Once we finally made it to the Cape there was almost no time there before we had to leave. It takes a good 15 minutes to walk down there with kids and we were there for 40 minutes total, giving us only 10 minutes down at the lighthouse, which is a very beautiful and spiritual place and deserves much more time. How about cutting out the morning Kauri museum stop and giving us some more time up there?!

The afternoon was better with the sand dune tobogganing and the drive down 90 Mile Beach, which was lovely in spite of the bus. Then we had to endure another stop at the Kauri place while they washed the bus, rather than them dropping us off first. We wouldn't have minded so much if we hadn't spent half an hour there in the morning!

If going with a family it's a pretty cheap option but I'd at least take your own lunch - or do it with Fullers, who have nicer buses and better food.
