Hi, I’m Guy, a friendly Rotorua local of over 30 years, and someone who enjoys helping people have a great time exploring this incredible region.
I’ve spent much of my life working with people as a tennis coach, so I know how to keep things relaxed, engaging, and tailored to each person. Over the years, I’ve also driven countless visitors around Rotorua, learning exactly what people love to see and how to make their day smooth and enjoyable.
I’m also a licensed pilot and passionate aviator, often flying friends and family over Rotorua and the surrounding area, giving me a unique perspective on the landscapes you’ll be exploring.
Whether you’re after a fully customised day or a well-planned tour, I’ll pick you up from your accommodation, take care of the details, and make sure you experience the very best of Rotorua at your own pace—from geothermal wonders to beautiful lakes and hidden local spots.
If you’re looking for a relaxed, personal experience with a local who truly knows the area, I’d love to show you around.
