Overview

New tour available from 1st November 2026

Discover Rotorua’s most iconic geothermal and cultural attractions on a relaxing day tour from Auckland.

Travel through the heart of the North Island to Te Puia, home to the spectacular Pōhutu Geyser, bubbling mud pools and one of New Zealand’s most significant Māori cultural centres. During the guided Te Rā experience, explore the geothermal valley, visit the Kiwi Conservation Centre and gain unique insights into Māori traditions, heritage and craftsmanship at the renowned New Zealand Māori Arts and Crafts Institute. Enjoy a hearty buffet lunch featuring traditional hāngī-inspired dishes and fresh local ingredients, surrounded by stunning geothermal scenery.

After lunch, unwind at the world-famous Polynesian Spa, Rotorua’s lakefront hot pools experience. Located on the shores of Lake Rotorua, the Polynesian Spa’s Deluxe Lake Spa is a range of geothermal mineral pools fed by the natural Rachel and Priest Springs. Relax in the warm mineral waters while enjoying the scenic lake views, with access to the relaxation lounge, geothermally heated recliners and a refreshing cold plunge pool. In the late afternoon, reboard your coach and enjoy the easy return coach trip to Auckland, arriving in the evening.
