Many of our trips pass through the Rotorua region and enjoy genuine Maori culture and some thermal wonders.. For those joining a tour
passing through Rotorua heres a taste of what you will be up to.
About the Rotorua area:
This region is centred on the internationally renowned thermal resort of Rotorua. Geysers, bubbling mud pools and Maori hospitality are some of the many experiences you will encounter in Rotorua.
It is the oldest and best-known resort in the country, where generations of visitors have enjoyed its waters, marvelled at its fascinating eothermal activity and experienced the region's unique Maori culture.
From the moment you arrive in Rotorua you'll know you're somewhere quite different. There is a pervasive smell of sulphur, and at nearby geothermal hotspots there are
spouting geysers, acrid-smelling mud pools bubbling and belching, and warm geothermal pools and ponds that create a kaleidoscope of colour. If nature doesn't provide enough xcitement, then you can top-up with some man-made extreme adventure options.
After a hard day's sightseeing or strenuous activity a dip in a thermal spa is totallyrelaxing.
