Overview

During your day's visit to Tauranga, experience the Geothermal wonderland of Rotorua. On the way there, marvel at beautiful beaches and multimillion dollar homes, before a 45 minute drive from the coast, ascending up the central plateau, through Kiwifruit plantations 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. Take a peek at the geysers (incl. famous Pohutu) from our secret viewing spot beside the geothermal region of Whakarewarewa.
We highly recommend you upgrade to our P5 tour - Geothermal Rotorua w/ Maori cultural performance, an additional USD35 each and you will be entertained by a famous Maori troupe known worldwide for their natural showmanship, and walk through a stunning steaming living geothermally active zone.

Te Puke
  • 20m
We visit one of the original Kiwi orchards in this, the Kiwifruit growing capital of the world. We’re certain you’ll be impressed to see how laden these vines are with fruit, and the intense husbandry and care that goes into growing them - in part because they are such a valuable part of our local economy.

Tikitapu Nature Walk
  • 25m
Here, you will enter immediately adjacent to the road that we travel on, another world that has similarities to Jurassic Park, a rainforest full of many different types of ferns, tall native trees and the sound of native birds chirping away. The experience will be similar to what the Maori who walked this country regularly or the first colonists experienced before much of our majestic forests were cut down to convert into pastoral land. We have a survey at the end of each tour and many customers pick this as their highlight, especially compared to the Redwood Forest that we also stop to experience.
Lake Tarawera
  • 10m
We drive her past the blue and green lakes for a stunning vista of the lake and Mt. Tarawera. This is, on a clear blue day, the best location for a photo opportunity.

Okere Falls
  • 15m
If time allows and you are physically fit, we will escort you down some steep (and sometimes wet) stairs to witness the. Power of the Kaituna River and possibly joyriders on inflatable rafts, as it surges through this beautiful natural gully
Wai-O-Tapu
  • 15m
We will travel here if time allows. It is a 25 minute drive to the centre of the North Island where you will delight in the mesmerising boiling mud pools that bless this part of the Taupo Volcanic Zone. This site is just a 20 m walk from where we park and you may walk another 100 m around the pool if you desire….therapeutic
