THE SHORT STORY OF OUR FAMILY BUSINESS
MDA Group (including MDA Experiences, Mountain Bike Rotorua, Mountain Bike Rotorua Shuttles, Black House Events, Crankworx and TCSP) is owned and operated by brothers Takurua and Tuhua Mutu. First started in 1989 (then named Priceless Experiences) MDA Group has accumulated a depth of knowledge and experience that have led it to become industry leaders in Tourism and Events.
The MDA Experiences whanau (family) is one that was born from an ethos of ensuring that every experience is always about people. Our professional and personable crew follow traditional Maori values of Kaitiakitanga (guardians of place and people), Manaakitanga (building integrity and strength in each other), Whanaungatanga (creating lasting relationships with all those whose paths we cross) and Kotahitanga (coming together and moving forward as one).
Our strong focus on values, Maori culture and putting the people first has seen the MDA Group grow into the preferred choice for those seeking bespoke, professional and genuine services.

Kaitiakitanga - guardians of place and people.
