   Thank you so very much for such a spectacular morning yesterday. We were all "blown away" and left so invigorated by the short escape we experienced when you shared your special land with us. We genuinely could have stayed a lot longer in that fresh sea breeze with that view. Your level hospitality and passion is rare and I can't wait to recommend Tussock Ridge Tours to anyone I come across.

   We had a wonderful time at Tussock Ridge Farm Tours. The scenery was breathtaking, and the tour was both informative and relaxing. Our guide, Ward, was warm and knowledgeable, sharing stories that brought the landscape to life. It was a perfect blend of nature, culture, and hospitality. Highly recommended for anyone wanting to experience the heart of New Zealand’s countryside. Thanks a lot for a fantastic time, Ward & Bumpy-san! From Mitsue (Wellington) & Tomomi (Osaka, Japan)

   Had a wonderful day out here - the views along the coast are spectacular and it is impressive to see the wind turbines up close. Ward and his family are great hosts, very friendly and welcoming, and everyone in our group loved the whole experience. Highly recommended!

   Me and my family had an excellent time on the Tussock Ridge Farm tour, Ward was a fantastic guide being both jovial, positive armed with a wealth of knowledge in the farm and interesting facts about the wind turbines how they were installed and operate. My kids had a fabulous time with his friendly dogs, got up close with a wind turbine, we got to feed the wild horses his farm adopted, visited the cheerful cabin with a one of a kind view with treats to the best blueberry muffins baked by his wife. My kids even got the butted by Bumpy the sheep which was hilarious. And as a finale fed the wild eels for the first time and learned many interesting facts about them It was also really insightful discussing with Ward on the challenges faced by the farming industry in NZ, political landscapes and how the farmers work together to overcome them. Heartfelt thanks to Ward for the fantastic tour of his farm and cabin, the size and scale of his farm really takes ones breath away. Truly a one of a kind tour, Highly recommended!

   What an amazing tour! It was fascinating to see a working sheep farm in NZ. The views are spectacular, the animals are beautiful, and our guide, Ward, was warm and friendly. I would not hesitate to recommend this tour to anyone who visits this beautiful country. We are so grateful to have had this opportunity to visit Tussock Ridge Farm.

   This was an exceptional experience that we highly recommend. Not only do you have the opportunity to see the breathtaking landscapes of the region, but you also get to learn about the important role of farming in NZ, sustainable farming practices, wind-powered energy, and the animals that call Tussock Ridge home. Ward is a wealth of information and extremely charismatic, and it was amazing to being able to get the tour from the expert who runs the farm. His passion and love for the farm is evident at every turn, both in how he talks about the land and as you see it for yourself, and makes this tour unforgettably special. This was the highlight of our time in Wellington, and we encourage other visitors to go on this must-do tour!

   Awesome tour and unforgettable memories! Our guide, Ward, showed us around his farm and the turbines in his jeep. Very authentic sharings of his experiences as a farmer, the animals and preserving environment. Anyone visiting Wellington should definitely not miss this!
