Well worth the visit
Very informative and definitely learnt things i never knew about their village. Very friendly guide and lovely guy in the gift shop, extremely welcoming.

Must do!
Discovering and learning more about Māori culture, way of life and spiritual beliefs, especially in this region where geothermal activities have shaped the lifestyle, was something deep and strong. A must do experience!

Whakarewarewa Living Village
Stop the car! We've driven past here many, many times over the years on road trips and finally stopped! It was BRILLIANT! A young tour guide who really knew her history, not just of the village, but tikanga and te ao māori. A fabulous walk through the village talking about day to day live. We were shown their marae, churches, gardens,urupa, how they cook and bathe, learnt history of the village and Rotorua while stopping at various points around the village. Even had sweetcorn cooked in a hot pool. It was a fascinating insight to daily normal life. Thrilled to have seen the geysers in full flight. The show was spectacular. Great walk around the thermal areas afterwards. Highly recommend. Bookme easy to use!

Insight to Maori culture
The tour guide was entertaining and shared insightful information about Māori culture and whānau. I really enjoyed the tour and would definitely recommend it to others.
