Rainer Heidtke: C&E Tours

Kia ora Hone

What makes your product so unique, is the depth of the experience. The root of Maori culture is not just a Waka or a Marae. It is the Mana of your Ancestors and yourself. Explaining and showing a tourist, that Mana is the root, and everything else is just the leaf, is an art in itself and you are able to convey that. A customer who takes a voyage on your Waka is taken on a voyage into the spiritual mind, Mana and world of the Maori. This is what makes you and what you offer so different and unique.

I can therefore truly say, that your product is the best Maori tourism product I ever experienced in my 21 years of being a managing director in the New Zealand tourism industry.

But this is just my thinking. What counts more to me is how my own children judged your product. They started to discuss Maori culture at home, they also built a replica Marae on our lawn, and they – for the first time – discovered the meaning of spirit.

It is extremely difficult to put in words what your product is about. I sincerely hope the above sentences show that I can recommend without hesitation your product to anyone who shows an interest in Maori Culture.
