Voted our most popular Tour - This tour is perfect for people wanting a full day sightseeing this diverse landscape including Mt Maunganui, NZ Kiwi and farming country, the Rotorua 8 lakes, with a focus on the geothermal area of Whakarewarewa village. Enjoy a brief concert here emphasising the rich Maori culture with song, dance and stories.
On the way to Rotorua, marvel at beautiful beaches and multimillion dollar homes, before a 45 minute drive from the coast slowly ascending up the central plateau, through Kiwifruit plantations (we plan to stop so you can see these vines in full foilage/fruit) and typical NZ pastoral farmland to our furthest inland destination, Rotorua. Take in the most popular sites of interest - Blue & Green lakes, view Mt Tarawera (erupted 1886) across the most gorgeous lake, walk through NZ native bush full of ferns and tall podocarps like an 1800's pioneer or Maori warrior. visit the mud pools of Kuirau Park, take a peek at the geysers (incl. famous Pohutu)
