Lizzy· January 4th, 2018Absolutely fabulous North Island Haka tour with guide Katie. Locations and activities chosen were ideal and the group a perfect size of 14. Some of the accommodation could have been a little better (for the amount paid for the tour) but otherwise a fantastic experience. Katie was a superb guide with excellent knowledge, awesome bus driving skills and sensational social skills. Highly recommend Haka tours!!Show moreTrip date: December 2017

Angela
Asked on November 27th, 2025Do u have 1 spot for this day ?
Intrepid TravelOperator•Written November 2025We currently do still have availability for our 21DEC departure as it is not a full group however it is On Request. Meaning since this departure is fast approaching we will need to request your spot with our local team and they will need to double check with our suppliers that we are actually able to confirm you. This process can take anywhere from 3-4 business days and we will need payment in full to proceed. If for any reason we cannot accommodate you a full refund will be issued.
