February 20 2024. Russel pick us up at the cruise ship, then we traveled in MT Maunganui valley in a very comfortable minibus. Love the legend of Mt Maunganui! Very beautiful. Russel is friendly, very knowledgeable about the area. We learned a lot. Thank you for making it a beautiful and educational day. From The Poulin Family :)

Russell was a great guide, lots of interesting information, plenty of stops to enjoy views or historical sites and a good sense of humour. We had limited time in Tauranga and this was a great way to get to know a bit about the place and local history. Lovely pub at the end too.
Response from Host, Feb 2020
Hi Ingrid me old mate!, It was an absolute pleasure to host you guys for the afternoon. Your interest in our local history was great and it was an honor to share it with you. I'm glad you have all made it back to Melbourne safe and sound. All the best, Russell
