Super moment!
Ça a vraiment été une découverte géniale, ils ont ouverts début décembre 2018 et mettent vraiment du cœur et de la passion dans ce qu'ils font, le Marae est magnifique, c'est le plus grand au monde et le seul national! L'équipe est aux petits soins et les chants et danses nous ont collés des frissons! La nourriture est vraiment excellente et en abondance!!! On n'a pas pu finir ? et les représentations continuent tout au long du dîner, on a même pu s'initier au Poï Sur scène avec eux!! Vraiment une expérience a ne pas rater si vous passez par Christchurch!!!

Great experience!
I had a great Maori experience at Te Hangata! It is incredible to feel the energy and the passion of the performers and highly interesting to learn about this culture. The seafood platter is big, maybe consider booking one for two people. But don't hesitate in booking this experience, it's awesome!
