Itinerario
Partendo dai Tauranga Port Gates, il tour inizia con un viaggio panoramico oltre il Monte Maunganui e una sosta alla bellissima Mount Main Beach, famosa per le sue sabbie dorate, la costa da surf e la vista sull'iconica Mauao. Lasciandoci Tauranga alle spalle, viaggiamo nell'entroterra attraverso il fiume Kaituna e viaggiamo a sud attraverso la lussureggiante campagna della Bay of Plenty verso Rotorua, il cuore geotermico e culturale della Nuova Zelanda. All'arrivo a Rotorua, ci fermiamo a Sulphur Point per una splendida vista sul lago Rotorua e un'introduzione al paesaggio geotermico unico della regione. Continuiamo poi attraverso gli eleganti Government Gardens e visitiamo la storica Rachel Spring, un tempo famosa per le sue acque minerali terapeutiche e strettamente collegata al patrimonio termale di Rotorua.
Il momento clou è una visita a Te Puia, sede del NZ Māori Arts and Crafts Institute e della famosa valle geotermica di Whakarewarewa. Vivi un'autentica performance culturale Māori con waiata, poi e haka tradizionali, che offre informazioni sulle ricche tradizioni e sulla cultura vivente di Te Arawa. Segue un'esplorazione guidata di Te Puia, tra cui la scuola nazionale di intaglio, dove i maestri artigiani conservano l'arte della tradizionale scultura in legno Māori. Visitiamo anche la Kiwi House per una rara opportunità di vedere l'iconico uccello kiwi della Nuova Zelanda in un recinto notturno appositamente progettato. Prosegui poi verso la spettacolare Whakarewarewa Geothermal Valley, dove pozze di fango spumeggiante, bocche fumanti, formazioni di silice e paesaggi geotermici rivelano l'immensa potenza vulcanica sotto Rotorua. L'esperienza culmina nel famoso Pōhutu Geyser, il più grande geyser attivo dell'emisfero australe, che erutta regolarmente in aria in un'indimenticabile dimostrazione di energia naturale.
Dopo il tempo per lo shopping di souvenir, inizieremo il viaggio di ritorno con una sosta alla magnifica Redwoods Forest, rinomata per i suoi imponenti alberi di sequoia californiani e la tranquilla atmosfera della foresta. Tornando verso Tauranga, ci fermiamo in un frutteto di kiwi a Paengaroa per conoscere una delle più importanti industrie orticole della Nuova Zelanda e la fertile regione di coltivazione che ha contribuito a renderla famosa in tutto il mondo. Tornando al porto di Tauranga, il tour culturale e geotermico del paese delle meraviglie di Rotorua combina cultura Māori, meraviglie geotermiche, bellezze native e attrazioni regionali in un'esperienza indimenticabile nella Baia dell'abbondanza.

Our guide was very personable and knowledgeable about the area and the Māori culture. She has lived in the area all her life so we got a lot of insight from a local perspective. The Māori cultural experience and school was educational and the geyser was cool to see as it spouted 10-20 feet into the air. She also pulled over and showed us a beautiful beach and a kiwi farm and told us about how they almost lost their entire crop because of pests that had been brought in that killed the crop.

Wow! What a wonderful experience. I would highly recommend this tour for anyone interested in learning about the indigenous people of New Zealand and the many natural wonders in New Zealand. The tour was led by a woman named Nicole and she was fantastic! She had such a assessed for life and a profound appreciation for the things we were seeing. I think she had as much fun showing us as we had seeing everything.
It's customers like you who make our job so rewarding. Thank you for your kind words and for choosing us.
A wonderful balance of culture and nature! Our excellent guide Nicolle was knowledgeable, engaging, and very informative. We really enjoyed the Maori cultural center and the amazing geyser and Redwood forest. I highly recommend this trip for cruise passengers, stopping here.

My wife and I enjoyed the day tour taken from Tauranga after our cruise ship, the Norwegian Spirit docked. Wicked Wanders Tour was as advertised and was enjoyable, especially our introduction to Mauri culture and New Zealand's geothermal events.
Thank you so much for your kind words! We're thrilled to hear that you had a great experience with us.

Our tour guide Nicolle was absolutely amazing. Her knowledge of the area and her exuberance were incredible. She went above and beyond I'm sure what was expected of the tour. She made a couple of stops that were her favorite and not a usual part of the tour. HIGHLY recommend this tour and her in particular.
We're over the moon to receive your glowing review! Thank you for taking the time to share your thoughts.
Nicolie was a great guide with an obvious love of the area and its heritage. Her commentary for the journey was a perfect introduction and when we arrived at Te Puia we were treated to an excellent tour by ‘Mrs T’. You pack in a lot on this tour - highly recommended.
Thank you for your review. It was a pleasure to host you for the day.
