Description
Discover more about the fascinating Maori culture in New Zealand on a 90 minute guided tour & buffet lunch package at Te Puia in Rotorua. On this popular Te Rā + Hāngī buffet lunch combo, explore the wonders of the geothermal reserve with an informative guide before enjoying a Hangi steamed lunch overlooking one of the most famous Rotorua geysers. This is a fantastic way to visit the Te Whakarewarewa geothermal valley in Rotorua, with a delicious lunch included.
Te Puia is a fascinating geothermal wonderland in Rotorua that combines extraordinary natural attractions with sharing New Zealand’s rich cultural narrative. On this Rotorua experience, one of the highlights is the world famous Hangi buffet lunch, which infuses Maori flavours with a range of global cuisines. This creates a unique flavour and there is no better place to enjoy delicious 'kai' than next to some of the best Rotorua attractions.
The Te Rā guided tour of the Te Puia geothermal park grants you access to the New Zealand Māori Arts & Crafts Institute, Rotowhio Pā, Kiwi Conservation Centre and Te Whakarewarewa geothermal valley - including the Pōhutu Geyser (the largest geyser in the southern hemisphere). This famous Rotorua geyser erupts approximately 20 times a day, with the water and steam often reaching heights of 30 metres. Beneath Pōhutu lies the 'Blueys'. This affectionately named cobalt blue lake is a result of silica produced from the Pōhutu Geyser, which then runs from the geyser terrace to the lake.
