Must do event when on Rarotonga. Bruce was a great guide, looking out for each member of the group and shares a wealth of information about the hike and the island.

We had a fantastic time with Bruce. This was agreed to be the highlight of our trip to Rarotonga. Bruce is an outstanding guide, managing a diverse group with panache. We even got up to the look out (and back down). Those we met enroute who were doing it self guided missed out on a great day.

This was an amazing experience, and I would highly recommend this. Bruce was an amazing guide throughout the hike, not only guiding us through the walk but also informing us about Rarotonga itself. My group and I learnt so much and would definitely do it again!

Highly recommend! We did this hike with kids aged 12-14 and everyone absolutely loved it. Definitely a challenging hike (more of a climb at times) that requires a good level of fitness and balance, but felt like a real adventure and Bruce was an awesome guide and was great with the kids.

Bruce was an absolute legend! We (group of 5) rang him up Friday to see if he could possibly be available in Sunday for a hike to the needle, he was happy to ablige after a personal event. He picked us up at our hotel and then off to the base of the hike, he was friendly, knowledge and had great sense of humor! Highly recommend him as would not have attempted this hike on our own. He genuinely loves what he does and it shows, his lovely wife even made us lunch and dropped it off to our end destination, it was bloody delious!!

Hike Safely

There have been many occassions over the year that’s that I’ve been called out to assist the search and rescue police in helping get a tourist that has been lost or injured on the track, please don’t let that happen to you or your family. We value your safety as some people underestimate the track or happen to get lost in some parts.
