Online Reviews for Cave Cruzer

CAVE CRUISER in Whitianga New Zealand is a must do excursion when visiting!! My excitement and expectations were high when I booked it months ago and the 2 hr+ tour exceeded any expectations. The ride was fast, slow, fun, informative, with lots of photo ops (I took 215 pics), tunes playing and not once felt unsafe, and was a once in a lifetime experience (not sure when I would be back) I couldn't even imagine. New Zealand is picturesque and beautiful but experiencing the views of cliffs, ocean islands with waves crashing into them from ocean side was spectacular!!!. Going into caves, thru tunnels in the rocks, and islands out in the ocean I have never even imagined let alone experience until Cave Cruisers epic ride happened today. We went through, into, over, between, rock formations and able to take pictures the entire time. The weather was perfect and sunny but I am certain cave Crusier would make any ride an experience you will never forget!!!

From the start you could tell it was going to be good. Brian is a nice guy and made everyone smile straight away. No going through the motions here, very knowledgable, skilled and enthusiastic. Great fun being up front at full speed and amazing cave experiences. Highly recommend 👍👍

What an amazing adventure our family had! Brian was super knowledgeable of all the history in the surrounding area as well as extremely experienced with his boat. Such a fun time had by the young kids to grandparents thanks to Brian's fast paced turns (very safe but exhilarating) and amazing acoustics in the cave! Highly reccomend booking a tour with Brian at Cave Cruisers, you will not be disappointed!

Weather on day of booking was looking questionable (rain / windy). Great communication from Brian who opted to delay the scheduled departure time by an hour (and offered full refunds if that wasn't suitable). 10 minutes before the new departure time...the rain cleared (clearly great local knowledge!) and the tour set off after a thorough safety brief. Captain Brian handled the fast boat adeptly... particularly given the wind and swell. His speed and manoeuvring eliminated hull crashing over waves and spray coming back on to the clients. Really enjoyable ride in the conditions. Brian was both knowledgeable and entertaining and only surpassed by the natural scenery in the caves, at the waterfall, the marine park and cove. Well done!

What an unreal experience! Cave Cruzer was an absolute blast and easily one of the highlights of our trip. Brian was a fantastic operator who made the whole experience both fun and educational, with plenty of laughs along the way. The smaller, faster boat made the trip feel much more personal and allowed us to get right up close to the caves and coastline, which made the experience even better! Couldn’t recommend Cave Cruzer highly enough. I’d happily do it all over again next time we’re in Whitianga. An absolute must-do!

Love the tour, music was great. Everything was explained very well, would recommend

AMAZING

We had an amazing time! Brian was an excellent tour guide and provided a lot of knowledge about the area! He made a rainy day incredibly enjoyable!

A must do when you visit Whitianga. Brian was a great, knowledgeable and fun guide, very tuned to everyone on the boat ensuring that everyone enjoyed a fun and safe tour. Great value for money. Very unique experience. Brian took his time and did not rush through the tour and over delivered. Thanks for a truly fun and amazing experience.

Highly recommend this tour..
