Day 1: Waitomo Glowworm Cave and Te Puia Geothermal Valley

​

One of the country’s most unique natural wonders are the famous glow-worm caves. Discover all that Waitomo has to offer with this super scenic cave experience, where you’ll discover the most breathtaking, magical caves in Waitomo and in New Zealand. Don’t miss experiencing the incredible Rotorua geothermal parks, one of the most unique things to do in Rotorua. The city’s unique location means that it’s perched on the pacific rim of fire, making the city and the region a wonderland of geothermal activity. From bubbling mud pools and clouds of steam, to shooting geysers and natural hot springs, the thermal parks in Rotorua gives you the opportunity to see these other-worldly geothermal attractions.

 

Extra Activity/Add-On (Optional) - Polynesian Spa

 

Enhance your glorious valley experience by escaping to Polynesian Spa and unlock nature’s gift in Rotorua. Your soul will thank you for it.

Nestled on the shores of lake Rotorua lies Polynesian Spa, a geothermal bathing and soul soothing retreat, where you can experience wellness sourced from Rotorua’s very own backyard.  Channeling the geothermal marvels in its backyard, waters from two natural springs are fed into the 28 hot mineral pools at Polynesian Spa. The slightly acidic priest spring relieves tired muscles, aches and pains while the alkaline waters of the Rachel spring nourish skin. After the therapeutic spa, relax at our overnight stay in Rotorua.
