Rotorua tours, Rotorua private tours, personal tours, ToursByLocals
Experience a flexible tour of the Rotorua region with a friendly personal guide from ToursByLocals. Your private guide knows this area as only locals do, and is eager to give you an unforgettable tour that reflects your travel interests.

See the well-known attractions that appeal to you, but also benefit from your guide's familiarity with local best-kept secrets and off-beat spots.

In the geothermal district of Rotorua, known as "Te Puia" to the Maori people, don't miss the Pohutu Geyser, which blasts 30 meters skyward 20 times a day. For an experience that is unique to New Zealand, enjoy Maori culture at Te Puia.

Find an appealing Rotorua tour at ToursByLocals. Ask your personal guide about customizing your tour to include exactly what you want to see and do in New Zealand. Go global — tour by local!
Tour Guide Legal Requirements
There is no requirement for a guide to have a license to give tours.

However, if the tour guide is also the driver, then they are required to hold a Passenger Service License and have a Private Hire Registration.

The driver must hold a Passenger Endorsement and must also complete a log book, and must record all work time. Drivers must not exceed the allowable work time.

The vehicle must hold a Certificate of fitness (CoF)

Some rental vehicles are not suitable as Passenger Service vehicles due to the narrow aisle space, seating arrangements and lack of cargo barriers. Most rental company contracts forbid the vehicle being used in a passenger service. report error

All ToursByLocals guides have met our ToursByLocals Guide Requirements which includes warranting that they can legally give the tours they offer.

  • You choose the ACTUAL PERSON who will give your tour. See their photo, bio, credentials and communicate with them in advance via our website. They are locals, living in the same area as the tour.

  • All Tours are PRIVATE, only you and people you choose.
  • Guide services are priced PER TOUR, not PER PERSON. However, there may be a 'per person' price component if the tour involves external costs such as admission tickets, etc.
  • Tours shown on website can be purchased directly - or the guide can customize them at your request.
  • Full contact information provided after booking. Plus, you'll have access to ToursByLocals 24 hour emergency contact number.
  • Looked through the site but still need advice? You can call ToursByLocals and talk to a REAL HUMAN!
