Rotorua
Rotorua is wellknown for its mud pools, geysers and natural hot springs. The city offers a wide range of attractions and experiences for those who are looking for some adventure (luge, cycling, outdoor walks) or those looking to relax (spas, massages, restaurants). It is also a great place to go if you are interested in experiencing tikanga Māori (Māori cultural practices and values). Rotorua sits on a plate of geothermal activity, giving it a stunning range of plant and wild-life that contrasts other areas of the North Island. We’d recommend that you explore the lakefront area, as well as small cafes and shops found in the centre of town.
