Itinerary
This is a typical itinerary for this product
Stop At: Te Puia, Hemo Road, Rotorua New Zealand
Immerse yourself in the incredible natural landscape of Rotorua with all its geothermal activity and beautiful nature.
Join us on this small group, for a more personal and friendly tour, with pick up from your Rotorua accomodation.
Walk through a valley, where steam rises from the ground, where pools of water boils, hot bubbling mud jumps and plop's and geysers erupt high into the air, may even rain down on you and learn how the Maori people have tamed and utilised this unforgiving landscape in their everyday life's.
You will be guided around this amazing geothermal landscape where history, culture and nature collide. Your Maori guide will share stories passed down through generations. You'll also gain an insight into features of Maori carvings, which have deep cultural significance. You'll also be able to observe the legendary Pohutu Geyser. This is the largest geyser in the Southern Hemisphere, which can erupt to a height of 100 feet or 30 metres and as often as 20 times per day. Get up close to hot bubbling mud-pools, steam vents and hot pools.
Catch a rare opportunity and learn more about the Kiwi bird, the national icon of New Zealand. Then take your seats for a show not to be missed where the Maori's share with you songs and dance including the spine chilling Haka war dance.

Thanks for all the arrangements! The guide Andrew is very nice and willing to share his knowledge and experience in NZ! The van is in very good condition and we had a comfortable time during the travels. Time arrangement is good and accurate so that we complete all the attractions in time with no hurry. I will recommend this company to my friends and I hope to see you, Andrew, again if I visit Rotorua in the years later!
