- Relax369512711152 contributionsOur family of four had an amazing ride with Liz and her beautiful horses. We are all beginner riders and have only rode 2-3 times previously. She gave us great instruction at the beginning and during the ride on how to lead the horses along the way. The scenery was amazing and Liz also took amazing photos and videos of our ride that will allow us to remember this experience for years to come.Written August 9, 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

The horses were well cared for and great for beginners. However, their trip was only 45 mins long instead of 60 mins. When I queried this at the end, the owner said it was a loop track and they "must have ridden a bit fast" but we felt that perhaps the instructor could have taken them on an extra track, or somehow given them the additional time we paid for. If a ride is only one hour long, you want to make sure you get the full hour. The kids enjoyed the views and horses but were disappointed it was so short.Written October 22, 2018This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Shaun NAuckland, New Zealand19 contributionsSilver Fern riding stables offers quality horse riding lessons and horse treks in Waiuku, south of Auckland. The riding lessons are conducted in a purpose built outdoor arena in Waiuku and the horse treks are held in the nearby Waiuku forest. The horse trek takes you through the very pretty forest area and over fairly easy terrain. Lessons are held for both adults and children and caters for beginners to advanced riders. I love the training, the horses the peaceful rural landscape. If you are looking for adventure or to build your riding skills or just to escape the bustle of Auckland for a few hours this is for you. Please remember to wear long pants and enclosed shoes and a camera is a must.Written June 17, 2018This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- SH B5 contributionsCindy was great deal with. The horses are beautiful and very gentle. For a nervous rider they looked after me and made sure I was at ease. The views along the trek are amazing. Would highly recommend.Written October 2, 2022This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.
- Helen NAuckland Central, New Zealand12 contributionsAwful customer service- Kelly is rude and has no idea how to treat customers. I booked a ride for my 10 year old daughter- she was so excited and had been looking forward it for months. When we arrived Kelly treated us with contempt- no greeting, no welcome, didn’t even introduce herself so I had to ask one of the other riders who she was as I couldn’t believe she was the owner. Felt so sorry for my daughter.
When I texted Kelly afterwards to suggest she may want to consider how she treats customers, she was rude and aggressive suggesting that I had “nearly missed the ride”- I arrived 4 minutes after the suggested arrival time, which was ten minutes before the ride was scheduled to start (heavy Auckland traffic- what can I say?) I wouldn’t recommend this place at all- to be honest horses didn’t too great and the place looks a bit run down. If you do go- be warned that Kelly has no inter personal skills.Written August 1, 2021This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

Both trips were Rotorua -Taupo - Waitomo trips. First time I was alone (working in Auckland) and second time with my husband and son (11 years old). Both trips were well planned and drivers/quides were having good knowledge about places we visited and driving safely all the time. Hotels were about 1 star or 2 star hotels - no problem for us. All the other passengers were students or exchange students, but i/we fit well to group. We saw all what we wanted to see, and were doing everything what we wanted to do. Very good trips for families and adults who does not require luxus.Written October 12, 2018This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- mikefieldtoronto5 contributionsAmazing service! I booked three trips with NZfG over the years and would happily book again. I worked with Maya each time, and she is very reliable. She helped me plan my trips from Auckland to Christchurch and back, making excellent recommendations on which routes to take. She helps with car rentals, hotels, ferry, route planning, timing, and even knows some of the best restaurants to eat at all over the country. I would highly recommend NZfG.Written June 13, 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.
