Customer Reviews
- Jack· April 11th, 2025Both trip leaders did an excellent job, and the locations visited were wonderful. There should be an inclusion for a visit to a glowworm cave. I do have a big complaint about the coaches: They were too small for our group and the seats were designed for young children. The seats are so close together my knees were almost brushing the seat in front. There are no pockets on the seats for small items (like a map or cellphone) The headrests are so high that anyone in a middle seat can barely see out. The only passengers with a forward view were in the very front seats, or the elevated back seat. The seats are so narrow that 2 people could barely fit side-by-side, and the top of the seatbelt rubbed my neck instead of over my shoulder and chest.Show more
- Pamela· April 5th, 2025The tour was excellent. Haydn, our tour leader, looked after us really well. The itinerary was varied and interesting. The booking left a lot to be desired as On the Go tours could not book a pre or post tour hotel or my return flights from Sydney to Hobart. These were advertised by Tour Radar as bookable extras on the internet and were available to the Americans on our tour.Show more
- Carol· April 4th, 2025The four stars are for The Tour Group Under Down Under Guide Anthony, who was fantastic. He was funny, knowledgeable and made us feel welcome. The tour was great "Boot Camp for Seniors", had a ball, saw so much of stunning Tasmania, did a lot of walking in brillant scenery, learnt a lot about Tasmanian and its history and meet some great people. Tour Radar as the middle man, could improve their communication and provide information in a more timely manner. Next time, I will look to go direct with the actual tour company.Show more

Asked on December 25th, 2024I'm looking for a tour from 30th January to 6 Feb, before my flight out on 7 Feb. I will be travelling solo. I'm looking to see Rotorua, Taupo, Waitomo, Hobbiton. Unfortunately none of the dates on your website work for mine, wondering if there's anything else you can recommend?
On The Go ToursOperator•Written December 2024Unfortunately we do not have any other tours that would fit into your time frame (leaving 30th Jan - 7th Feb) that depart from Auckland. We are very sorry that we are unable to help with this portion of your travel.
