My husband and I just returned from spending an unforgettable day with Tom, the owner of Foris eco-tours. We hiked in two distinctly different parts of the rainforest while Tom shared fascinating information about the 1000 year old trees, unique soil and more. Midday, we took a break to enjoy a lovely picnic lunch which Tom had brought. We concluded with beautiful drive through the countryside back to Rotorua. We highly recommend Tom and his company as your Rotorua guide choice. Tom is professional, reliable, knowledgeable and engaging!!

We just got back from our honeymoon in New Zealand and this hike was one of our favorite excursions. Not only was the forest beautiful and our guide, Tom, knowledgeable, but he was great to talk to and kept us entertained from his stories. Felt like a hike with our good friend showing us around. If you are in the fence book this tour it was awesome!

AWESOME TOUR. The Whirinaki forest is just spectacular - primeval, lush, green. The hike was wonderful and our guide made the trip special by thinking of all the details. Couple helpful hints - good waterproof hiking boots, water! Plan on being there for about 4 hours, plus the round trip tour from Rotorua - roughly 90 minutes.

Karl took us through this magnificent forest, and we came out better than we entered. Knowledgeable, funny, and sincere, we couldn't have asked for a more perfect day and guide. It was pouring down rain, and we were safe within the forest's canopy. Best day since we've been in NZ. Highly recommend this off the beaten path experience. You see few people and a small intimate tour!

We had an excellent time exploring the Whirinaki forest with Tom. I told him that "the geo-thermal stuff in Rotorua is cool, but this is even cooler" and that I promised to tell everyone else that, too. I truly mean it that this was one of the most spectacular places to explore. We tried to take a lot of photos (and Tom was very kind to take a some of us next to some very cool trees) but they simply don't do it justice. You have to see it with your own eyes. Tom is a great guide, extremely knowledgable, clearly passionate about his work and conservation in general. Highly, highly recommend this experience.
