New Zealand
Rotorua
The tourism capital of New Zealand and spiritual home of New Zealand’s Maori people is an easy 3 hour drive south of Auckland and 6 hours from Wellington. Rotorua is best known for its giant geysers, boiling mud pools, steaming cliffs, volcanoes and characteristic sulphur smell which is evident from the moment you arrive. Holidays in Rotorua allow you to experience stirring performances of Maori action songs and dance, followed by food cooked in a traditional hangi. And, from the bush lined shores of its 11 secluded lakes, anglers can enjoy New Zealand's best trout fishing.
