Kia Ora, welcome my name is Stephen and have been living in Tauranga for the past 10 years and providing tours through our beautiful area most of that time. My wife Amanda and our beautiful 3 daughters keep me full of life and on the go when I am not meeting and traveling with our distinguished guests. Personally I love meeting new people and conversing with them in all roles. When not on tour myself I also work at Hobbiton Movie Set where I am a tour guide and bus driver. Absolutely love the environment there, the movie set never gets old and I just adore being outdoors in such majestic countryside. So, if I were to pick my favorite option it would have to be our Hobbiton Tour, followed closely by Ziplining in the Mamaku Forest (Rotorua). I love being on the road, driving, and the conversation with new friends from here and abroad. What I provide; what my tour service provides, is that little extra to make your day feel valued and respected. Your time, your interest, and your family are important to me. I endeavor to treat all my guests as my own family and ensure all possible comforts are provided. What you will find with me and traveling with me is: - A personal tour guide and tour experience - The opportunity to make the day your own, through customization and special requests - Modern European vehicles chosen for their safety and comfort - Extra's refreshments and Wi-Fi provided - Sanitation, Hygiene, and Sanitary provisions within our vehicles Travel with me, and you will be looked after wherever possible. I assure to treat you like family and appreciate your decision to travel with me during your time in Tauranga and the Surrounding areas. I hold a PSL which is a license issued by the NZ Ministry of Transport to provide and operate a passenger-based transport service (a legal requirement in New Zealand). I also hold a valid driver's license to take passengers - an endorsement requiring police screening and medical examination every 5 years. I hold certification in Horticulture with Fruit Production which is a strong industry here in the Bay of Plenty - providing vast global consumption of Kiwifruit and other fruit types and products. I do not have any restrictions in regard to my guiding, I can offer a full range of experiences
