The Ultimate

Fun, fun fun! Highly recommend

Fun, fun fun! Highly recommend. I did “The Ultimate” tour with 3 friends last weekend. FABOULOUS! Very well organised indeed from start to finish. 
The guides were GREAT, very knowledgeable ,respectful, friendly and helpful. Good humour too.
The cart was ok although the one we had seemed to be very slow. I thought a map of the route on the dash would be good? 
Whangamomona hotel was a comfortable old fashioned experience ; Dinner delicious, great staff there. LOVED IT. (Take your passport as”Independent Republic”.)
Tunnels were fun! 
Highly recommend this trip. Wonderful team that gel together perfectly .Oh, and the home baking was OUT OF THIS WORLD good. (3 Mar 2025)

The Expedition

Remote NZ at its best. Fun, friendly and informative. The cost for such an excellent weekend was very reasonable. We spent two days and one night with on our expedition. We had a lot of laughs, while learning the history of the area. The jet boat and Heli trip is something I will never forget. Staff are always there and ready to help. There was a group of twelve of us on our trip and we were easily accommodated.

The Republic

A friend and I recently did the Republic 1 Forgotten World rail tour and I have to say it was one of the absolute best experiences of our lives!! We stayed the night at the Forgotten World Motel as we were traveling down from Auckland and though it is an older motel, it had everything we needed for a two night stay. But from the motel to the rail tour to the shuttle ride back at the end of the tour the most memorable thing was the staff

Absolutely unforgettable — a true bucket-list experience. We did Forgotten World Adventures last weekend and honestly… wow. This is one of the most unique experiences you can do in New Zealand. Every detail was dialled in perfectly — seamless transport, great food, comfy accommodation, and totally on-time organisation from start to finish.
