Our bus tour to the Hobbit film set was on a Royale Coachline bus. Our driver/guide Martin was a top class driver that we felt really safe with. His commentary was excellent given us some fantastic information during the tour. The bus was in a fantastic condition, comfortable seats and spotless clean. Highly recommend this company for bus tours.

A group of us were traveling from Mt. Maunganui to Auckland to embark on a cruise to Vanuatu and New Caledonia and decided not to drive ourselves and have the bother of finding parking and the eventual return trip home. What a great decision this was! We couldn't have asked for a better service! Being a group of older ladies we were all a bit concerned about perhaps needing a pit stop on our way but we were assured that we would be making stops on our travels. I thoroughly enjoyed the trip to Auckland and the return to Mt. Maunganui on our return. Our driver was very considerate, had a great sense of humour and made our journey an enjoyable one. It was a real treat for me to be a passenger for once. The bus was super comfortable and spotlessly clean. What an amazing way to start a holiday. Would I use Luxury Airport Shuttles again? Most definitely!!
