The flight and the scenery were incredible. Our pilot Katie gave a great commentary and looked after us so well, especially my husband who had a back injury. It was an unforgettable experience.

Our flight was excellent value for money and Katie our pilot was very informative. We got great views from each side of the plane. it was a brilliant 80th birthday present for my husband and an early birthday present for me. Volcanic Air were so friendly and easy to deal with also. we totally recommend this flight with them.

Excellent times in this seaplane.
The pilot was very professional, knew how to explain the technique of the seaplane, the landscapes, the economy, the history!

We had a wonderful trip. Waited for a clear sunny day which makes the most of the views. The pilot was also a great guide giving the details and history of Taraweha and made everyone feel comfortable in a small seaplane. Would recommend.

This was the first time that we were on the float plane. It was fun, comfortable and with great views. The experience was different from normal plane or helicopter. James, our pilot was friendly and informative.

It is fairly expensive but if you can go as part of a group then you can spread the cost much better. I was around £200 for my share. Happy to pay that as running float planes is an expensive business and what price do you put on such an amazing one-off experience? When on holiday do as much as you can, I say.
The pilot we had was excellent and talked us through pre-boarding and then commentated on the flight itself. The scenery was spectacular and we got lovely aerial views of Rotorua itself as well as the crater and lakes area of Tarawera.
I myself suffered from a bit of motion sickness since this is not a fixed wing flight so if you get a little sick on boats or helicopters you may experience that here. Still wouldn't have missed it for the world though.
Be aware that you will get weighed before boarding so they can balance up the plane :-)

This was a blast!! We caught an Uber out to Rotura from our cruise ship to get to this adventure. They have a helicopter and a seaplane. The seaplane was great fun taking off from the lake. The lake is filled with black swans. Beautiful. Great scenery from the plane!! Over an old volcano. Wish it would go over the thermal fields.
