点评:My husband and I had a terrific time during this rare excursion into a vibrant New Zealand forest after dark. We didn't even realize we'd be the whole tour group on the evening we went, much less by the founder and owner, Ian—who even came to pick us up at the Paihia Ferry wharf and took us back afterward. In Ian's merry and supremely knowledgeable way, he trained our inexperienced eyes and taught us a lot about the many different trees, plants, insects, arachnids, eels, and other flora and fauna we encountered over a couple of hours together. It's a one-of-a-kind way to experience this diverse, majestic, and singular ecology, with a perfect guide. And along the way, we had some lovely personal conversations with Ian, who seemed eager to know us as people and not just as customers. We've been recommending this widely already. Thanks, Ian and Barbara!
