Value for Money
Our guide was great. Learnt alot about the local Iwi. Unique experience being in the village and seeing old traditions still in use. We saw the Geysers erupt which was very special.

Informative
The tour was good. Lots of information. Not as much 'bubbling mud' as I remember from when I was young, but that's out of the tours control. Guide was lovely.

Whakarewarewa Maōri village and the Geotherm walk
We've enjoyed our guided tour through Whakarewarewa village. Geothermal activity looks stunning in winter due to cold air. Our guide ("Chief ") was great, he was very funny and knowledgeable. Absolutely loved the whole experience!
