Very fun day!
The bus tour and boat cruise was one of the highlights of my trip to New Zealand with Sisterhood Travels. The bus drivers were very informative and entertaining.

A Brilliant Day Out
I booked last minute and got exceptional service by both the Bookme and Fullers customer service teams to get all the discounts and documentation in time. We didn't get to the Ferry early enough for our planned crossing as there were 2 huge Cruise Ships in - so definitely use their recommendation for when to get into line. The Explorer buses were really tidy and frequent and all the drivers we met were personable, knowledgeable, helpful and fun! They did a great job of promoting Waiheke and NZ to our international guests. Will definitely be doing this again!

Poor service
We sent our granddaughter to run ahead to try to hold the bus and the driver would not wait the extra 20- 30 seconds for us to get to the door. Then we had to wait almost 35 minutes for the next bus. The PA system also did not work on one bus.

Waiheke western
This was a great way to see the island of Waiheke. The buses and windows were clean and well cared for. The narrative was not clear with one of the drivers and it was more than the accent. All were helpful when we asked about stops. They knew the opening times of the establishments. I would recommend it to others.
