On this comfortable private day tour from Auckland, explore the geothermal wonderlands of Rotorua in one day. Experience a personal encounter with our people, culture, and place at Te Puia. A place where mud pools bubble, geysers shoot steam high into the air and see iconic native kiwi birds in the viewing enclosure. Experience a traditional Hangi buffet lunch and traditional Māori concert combined to experience a land where myth and legend come to life, where the earth boils, and mud heals. Soak in hot steam, marvel at boiling mud pools at one of New Zealand’s most impressive geothermal wonderlands, Hell’s Gate mud spa. Your body and soul will feel revitalised after this soothing experience.

Te Puia is an iconic destination for visitors featuring the world famous Pōhutu geyser, Māori cultural performances, live Kiwi birds, boiling mud pools, native bush and the national school of wood carving and weaving. Feel the warm welcome of Māori guides from the moment you walk in. Explore the unique Whakarewarewa geothermal valley, home to the world famous Pōhutu Geyser, which erupts up to twenty times a day, and up to thirty metres high into the air. This experience includes an extended tour of Te Puia, an interactive weaving experience, plus a traditional Māori Hangi buffet lunch infused with indigenous flavours and a Māori concert.

Get down and dirty in a mud bath or unwind in a sulfur spa before cooling off in a beautiful spring-fed waterfall and plunge pool.
