About This Tour
During your day's visit to Tauranga, experience the Geothermal wonderland of Rotorua. On the way there, marvel at beautiful beaches and beautiful homes, before a 45 minute drive ascending up the central plateau, through Kiwifruit plantations (we stop at one ...you'll be intrigued), and typical NZ 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. We highly recommend you upgrade to our P5 tour - Geothermal Rotorua w/ Maori cultural performance, an additional USD40 each and you will be entertained by a world renowned Maori troupe for their natural showmanship, and then walk through a stunning steaming living geothermally active zone). Alternative we visit kuirau park, also very active and culturally significa t. Stop lakeside for lunch.
