Little Green Tours

During planning of our round trip to New Zealand we found Little Green Tours and it just looked amazing what Ali and Marc could offer. We decided to contact LGT and had video calls during which we talked about our wishes and what LGT could offer, and after this there was no doubt that LGT should arrange something special for us. We have never tried more enthustiastic guides, and everything was planned as expected and even when we were going to Rotorua a lot of recommendations were sent to us and we booked LGT to arrange and book several things to see before we arrived in their cottage in Rotorua. Ali and Marc are just the couple that you have confidence in and they have a lot of knowlegde about the Mauri and the area around Rotorua. We can highly recommend LGT to everyone who will have an experience that is more than just a "normal" guided tour. If we wil have the chance to travel to New Zealand again, Ali and Marxc will be the first to know.

Ali and Marc took us from Auckland to Rotorura on a private transfer last week and it was a fun and informative drive. We stopped at a local cheese store and picked up some amazing cheeses for our stay at Rotorua. Due to weather, we were unable to visit Hamurana Springs as it was closed due to safety but Ali and Marc took us to Blue Springs on the way which was a beauty! I get car sick relatively easily so was a bit worried about the three hour transfer but it was super smooth and I learned so much about the area and culture during the trip. Thank you Ali and Marc!

Such a great stay in Kapowai for New Year! Alison & Marc are lovely host who welcomed us with kindness helping to shape our trip to perfection with many suggestions. We left speechless by the beauty of what we visited and did, peaceful treewalks, mountain bike, volcanic valley visit, hot pools relax and enjoyed the lake view from the cottage. We were delighted by our stay, the cottage is spotlessly clean and well equipped, with super comfy superior bedding. Thank you again for having us

We had a very special day out with Ali and Marc. They collected us in their Tesla (EV) and drove us to Hamilton. We spent an enjoyable time with them at the amazing Hamilton Gardens and then it was on to the Zealong Tea Estate, for a luxurious High Tea. We felt safe and relaxed with Marc and Ali and it was great to enjoy our country with such knowledgeable and attentive hosts. We would be happy to enjoy another day's outing with them at any time.

Kapowai is a delightfully inviting little cottage with lots of lovely touches, a sunny deck, some nice walks nearby. Alison and Marc are wonderful hosts, who go out of their way to make everything work for their guests. We are happy repeat customers. Kapowai is fully self-contained, which is important to those of us who like to avoid busy public areas and hotels. We could eat in which, on a cold night, we enjoyed doing. The appeal of Kapowai is also its location, an easy three hour drive from Auckland. There is much to do in the winter too: the cold adds much steam and drama to the local geothermal attractions (very much uncrowded). Waikite or Wairakei hot pools are real favorites of ours, especially in the winter.
