Toll Toll Toll
Bin zum 2.Mal in Rotorua...hab beim 1. Mal Te Puia gesehen...auch schön, aber eher ein Museum, das die Maori-Kultur vermitteln will... Whaka ist eine kleineres Gelände, aber eben ein Dorf und es lebt... es ist deshalb viel authentischer. Wir fühlten uns sehr willkommen und haben eine tolle Darbietung und eine interessante Führung durch das Dorf erlebt. Auch die alltagstaugliche Nutzung der Erdenergie hat uns fasziniert. Absolute Empfehlung

Gute Eindrücke in das Dorfleben der Maori
Interessante Eindrücke in das Dorfleben der Maori. Die Geysire sind sehr schön und die Walkways sind interessant und gut zu schaffen. Die Cultural Experience sollte man sich nicht entgehen lassen.

Interessanter Aufenthalt
Gute Führung durch das Dorf, die kulturelle Vorführung hat richtig Freude gemacht und gute Laune verbreitet. Die Maoris leben im Dorf, ihr Leben ist natürlich auf den Tourismus ausgerichtet, das ist aber auch nichts Schlimmes. Die heißen Quellen und Krater sind beeindruckend, schade dass man die Geysire nur aus der Entfernung erleben kann und man das erst mit der Buchungsbestätigung erfährt. Es lohnt sich aber auf jeden Fall die Anlage zu besuchen.
From Whakarewarewa - The Living Maori Village Guided Tour
Kia ora Klaus, Thanks for taking the time to share your feedback and rating us four stars. Pohutu geyser, as you have pointed out, is viewable from Whakarewarewa (we have two viewing platforms) and it is also accessible at Te Puia, our neighbours. If the sole purpose of your visit here was to get super close to the geyser (rather than purely take a photo with a gorgeous backdrop) then, you won't get this. We are clear about this in our marketing collateral (we share the outlook our visitors get - that's only fair) and certainly at Admissions. When visitors express that their sole purpose is to see the geyser (some people are not here for the culture, and we understand this), then we will have a conversation to find out exactly what they are looking for - and if this means we are not the best place for them to visit to meet their needs: We'll make other suggestions. For us, it's really important that our manuhiri (visitors), many of whom are on a 'once of a lifetime trip' get their needs met in the best way possible. We're happy to hear you enjoyed your guided tour. All the best with your onward travels. Ngā mihi Whakarewarewa Team

Sehr interessant und sehenswert!
Mir hat das Dorf und die Führung der Einheimischen sehr gut gefallen. Auch die Aufführung war klasse! Das einzige was zu bemängeln ist, war die große Gruppe von ca 30-35 Personen..
