Next, travel to Rotorua and explore the renowned Te Puia Geothermal Valley. Witness the dramatic Pōhutu Geyser, bubbling mud pools, and vibrant geothermal landscapes. Along the way, encounter live kiwi birds and visit the Māori Arts & Crafts Institute, where master carvers and weavers keep traditional skills alive.
