Wai-O-Tapu
The Mud Pool at Wai-O-Tapu Thermal Wonderland, near Rotorua, is one of New Zealand's most active geothermal features. It consists of bubbling, boiling mud created by underground geothermal activity. The thick, grey mud constantly bubbles due to the release of volcanic gases, offering a fascinating display of nature’s raw power. The Mud Pool sits in a crater formed by a volcanic eruption and is a popular attraction for visitors interested in geothermal phenomena.

A very long and rushed day

3.00Not sure where to begin firstly had amazing Viator trip to Hobbiton a couple of days prior so perhaps we needed to manage our expectations. Firstly this trip felt like we were a shuttle bus and not with a tour guide and the driver though nice enough you could tell he was stressed we started off in Hamilton but he had picked 5 others up from Auckland beforehand and left them in a cafe whilst coming for us which was fine but then we also picked up another 2 from Rotorua who did half the trip so everything felt extremely rushed and the driving was interesting. The natural beauty of New Zealand’s thermo and geyser was amazing you do a lot of walking which was fine for us but you need to be aware of this and it is a long day though we never got to see Tirau which may have been because of the traffic but not sure. Think definitely manage your expectations for the travelling part of this trip but what you do get to see is amazing.

5.00What a great trip - packing several sights into one day! Sid, our driver and tour guide kept us all right throughout the day and gave us options at the various stops. It was a nice small group with just 6 of us and everyone was friendly, making it a lovely day out. The sights are amazing - from the clear water of the Blue Spring to all the vibrant colours around the volcanic areas. A day not to miss if you go to North Island!
Great for sightseeing in a short time.
