Before you book

Te Puia, Pōhutu Geyser and Whakarewarewa in One Day

The cultural side includes traditional arts and crafts, kiwi conservation, a haka performance and Whakarewarewa Māori Village, where you learn how the community lives alongside this remarkable geothermal environment.

Māori Culture and Geothermal Rotorua

Rotorua is one of New Zealand’s North Island highlights for travellers interested in both Māori heritage and geothermal activity. This tour combines the two in a structured day trip from Auckland.

At Whakarewarewa, you can learn about Māori heritage, customs and everyday life, as well as the community’s close connection with its geothermal surroundings.
