Haka Tours commented on this reviewKia ora Alyssa, thank you so much for your great review of Haka Tours! We're so pleased that Rhys showed you the best of the North Island. Yes, it is better to book ahead of time any of the activities you know you definitely want to do, but there is also the flexibility to book as you go, although, as you say, the Hobbiton tour is a popular add-on. We certainly hope we get to show you around the South Island. Thank you for being part of the Haka whanau!- MaryWritten on April 28, 20195.0 - Excellent
Thank you, Haka Tours, for the best vacation I've ever had. The adventures, immersion of Maori culture, and friendships formed were all more than I could've asked for.

Questions & Answers
Here we have collected and answered the most frequently asked questions about this tour.
Is there a hotel list available?
The tour operator has advised that they do not have a full list of accommodations available for the Amplified NZ tour, as the accommodations change so frequently. After the booking is made you will be issued your final trip documents with your specific accommodation details. However, a couple of examples of accommodations they use for this tour are the Haka hotel in Newmarket and YHA Hostel in Wellington - hopefully, this can give you a better idea of the kind of accommodation you can expect on tour.
When and where does the tour end?
This tour concludes at approximately 6 pm at YHA Hostel in Wellington. Luckily, you accommodation on the last night of the tour is included, so feel free to party with your new travel buddies and treat yourself to a lie-in in the morning, where your tour ends after breakfast.
When and where does the tour start?
This tour starts at 8 am on the first day of the tour, from the tour operator's very own Haka Hotel in Auckland (located in Newmarket on Manukau road). As this tour has such an early start, you can choose to stay in the hotel the night before the tour starts, which gives you a relaxed start to your Haka experience. Get ready, because on the first day of the tour, you will stop by the famous Hot Water Beach, which thousands visit each year to dig their own personal hot tub.
