From its neon geothermal pools to its ruby-trunked redwoods, Rotorua has a lot to offer if you’re looking for amazing tours from Auckland. While most Bay of Plenty tours only pass through Rotorua, we’ll make sure you stop and experience all the best sights and scenes this culture-rich city has to offer.
Let’s take a look at a few of our Rotorua tour highlights in today’s article.
Geothermal adventures
Erupting geysers, steaming geothermal pools and lime-green and pink lakes abound in this very volcanically active city. We’ll take you on a tour through Waihi Gorge and Te Puia – home of the famous Pōhutu geyser, which erupts twice every few hours!
You’ll see a volcanic wonderland and have a chance to pass through the gift shop and stock up on some pampering mineral-rich facial mud collected straight from the bubbling mud pools outside. You’ll also be honoured with a traditional Maori welcome and action-packed concert. Participate in native carving and weaving and enjoy a true and tangible cultural experience.
Revel in the redwoods
The Rotorua redwoods are a true gem to behold. In addition to the mighty redwood trees, you’ll see a series of native New Zealand trees along your walk, including the elegant Silver Fern. Enjoy the peace and tranquillity of the forest and build up an appetite as you walk between the trees – we’ll take you to local eateries and cafes so you can recharge for more amazing tours in New Zealand.
All in a day’s work
We’ve barely touched on the delights you’ll experience with a private tour of Rotorua from Auckland. You’ll be surprised at how many wonders await in the space of just one day! Our 1 – 2 Day Guided Tours are perfect for anyone passing through the North Island and wishing to enjoy as many experiences as possible (without doing all the nasty homework to investigate what’s worth seeing). Take a tour with the locals and see exactly what’s worth seeing in a convenient and well-organised amount of time.
