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.

5.00We enjoyed this multi site tour, especially the geyser Redwood Forest and blue spring portion. The driver Dinesh was knowledgeable and was able to take us to cultural sites, not on their original itinerary.

5.00We booked the Wai-O-Tapu, Redwood Forest & Blue Springs tour with Enzoy Tours and had a fantastic experience. Our guide, Dinesh, was incredibly engaging and knowledgeable — even though the tour lasted around 12 hours, it truly flew by. He shared not only historical facts but also great local insights at every stop, which made the whole day very enjoyable. Enzoy Tours is a relatively young company, but it already feels very professional. The vehicle was in excellent condition and clearly chosen with comfort in mind — as a tall person, I really appreciated the generous space. Overall, a clear recommendation and a tour I would happily book again!
Triple Deal was A Triple Delight

5.00This was a very good excursion. It was raining but it didn’t stop anything we did. It just rained on /off. The Geysers were very cool Lady Knox blew her top as scheduled and then we went to the park of countless volcanic craters. After that we went to the Redwood forest which was outstanding and finally to the Blue Springs which were truly blue. The triple deal was well worth it. Beware, it’s a long day!!
The tour wasn't anything...

3.00The tour wasn't anything incredible. The guide plays an AI generated audio that describes things on the drive every once and a while so felt very detached and not very genuine. Not much effort has gone into the touring part which was disappointing considering how expensive it is and that you don't really get to see a huge amount or learn anything from the guide. Tour doesn't include entry to the treetop walk either which was a let down considering how much you pay for the tour. The small tour group was nice and the guide was friendly.
It was a long day but...

4.00It was a long day but enjoyable. Having the different stops broke up the day. I would have like to have more time at Blue Springs. We stopped for breakfast and lunch. There were several bathroom breaks as well.
Overall it was a great experience with variety of things to see

4.00Need to walk fast and only need to walk 1/2 #3 walk at Waitopu so that you can have some time see other half of park. 40 min breakfast break should have been shorter to give more time at park

5.00It is the tour that takes you to nature. Beaucoio de minde at the Geyser, a little less for the visit of the caldera. The afternoon is great with the visit of the forest then a river with perfectly clear water
