Tamaki Maori Village-turer

A very interesting and informative tour. The guide is native living in that area. She was very knowledgeable and her commentary was very clear.

Det var virkelig fantastisk å se geysiren, termalparken og forstå maorikulturen. Burgerlunsjen er også deilig.

it was an amazing experience. Our tour guides Sandra and Michelle were too good. Very knowledgeable.

Dagen før avreise mottok vi en vennlig e-post med påminnelse om møtetid og sted. Under kjøreturen ga guiden kontinuerlig informasjon om landskapet utenfor. I tillegg kjørte guiden oss til destinasjonen og forklarte tydelig neste møtetidspunkt. For meg, som ikke kjører bil, er det absolutt et godt valg å delta på en pålitelig lokal tur. På grunn av trafikk på returen ble vi forsinket med 1,5 time, men guiden kjørte alle deltakerne tilbake til hotellene sine én etter én. Etter at aktiviteten var avsluttet, mottok vi også en hyggelig WhatsApp-melding fra reisebyrået.

The Whakarewarewa is a living Maori village shaped by many geysers where they bathe and cook, among other activities. It's home to around 21 families today - which gave the tour an authentic feel. The power of their haka and other songs and dances from their live performance were spirit-lifting. Our village guide was a young clan chief who was knowledgeable, friendly and entertaining. As for the Redwoods forest, it was walking among greatness. Take time to walk on the ground too, to fully experience these majesty of these trees. Wayne, the guide who drove us from Auckland to Rotorua showed us the beautiful New Zealand countryside landscape and was informative, helpful info too. All in all, this was a terrific and informative day trip. Well worth it.
