Experience the unique and special natural beauty of Rotorua, the literal hot spot of the geothermal region of New Zealand, just 1 hour's drive from Tauranga.

See and learn about the geothermals and its significance to the Maori people, the first to settle in New Zealand over 800 years ago.

Entry is not included to the commercial geothermal reserves, but we do see boiling mud pools, crystal clear bubbling hot springs and volcanic lakes.

Relax at the foot bathing pools in Kuirau Park, (towels provided) while your guide gives insight into the geothermal waters and their use by locals.

We stop by Whakarewarewa village to pick up our lunch snack where you can take a peek at the Maori village (entry not incl.) before our final stop, the Redwoods Forrest.

Here we can walk among the treetops on a network of easy-to-use rope swing bridges, with access by a gentle spiral ramp, so no steps are needed.
