We had the best time traveling around with Tom. First and foremost his driving was impeccable on the windy streets of Wellington! We could not have done that kind of driving ourselves. Everyone we met at each of the establishments were fond of Tom and therefore fond of us. That made a huge difference than if we had done this on our own. We love food tours and they are the best ways to get to know a city. This tour with Tom goes down as one of the best!

We are thrilled that we chose Tom and Jill with Kaewa Tours. From our first contact with Tom by phone, we knew that the week we toured around the Kapiti/Wellington area, we were getting first-class, personalized treatment. Tom picked us up at the airport and started our tour right away, on our way to our B&B. The best part of the tour week was meeting the owners of the unique small businesses: the Manuka honey, the coffee brewing, the olive oil, Tom and Jill even had us to dinner at their home--we felt like family. We couldn't imagine a better guide to learn about the real New Zealand.

This tour was amazing. We got to roast our own coffee beans and learn about the process. We brought some home and everyone loves the coffee. Additionally, we got to tour a chocolate factory, eat at local restaurants, and go to a local brewery. The food was amazing and we enjoyed Tom’s stories about all the places we visited. Tom is honestly the best not only tour guy but person.

Tom's Wellington tour was a gem! His local insights, friendly vibe, and well-paced itinerary made the experience incredible. From iconic spots to hidden corners, he nailed it. A must for anyone visiting Wellington!

We are a couple from the United States, just outside of Boston, and were visiting Wellington and wanted to see the sites and fun local attractions. We met Tom for a foodie tour and he was an amazing host/ambassador. He was punctual and communicated all that we were going to do for the day. He started our meeting by setting expectations and letting us know what we’d be in for. He’s got a great sense of humor and is obviously very knowledgeable of the area. He provided great insight into various areas as we cruised around the city. He checked in with us often to make sure we were comfortable and getting what we wanted out of the tour. The tour took us most of the day and we were able to see beautiful views while sampling coffee, a fine lunch, and craft beers. Tom exceeded expectations as a guide and did a great job of letting us know about things we could explore on the days we were spending in the city. I’ve been to many cities on many tours, and Tom ranks among the best. I highly recommend engaging him and Kaewa tours.
