A lovely experience, with a very knowledgeable and passionate guide
Great activity. Tour guide had so much knowledge of the local area and its history. The show was awesome and the part where they sang Pokarekare Ana was so beautiful it moved me to tears. I’ve heard this song my whole life but never knew the history and the meaning until our visit. And the performers were incredible. We also did the self tour after the guided tour and wow so much geo thermal activity. But what I remember from what the guide said, “they live in such a way to coexist with the land not to rape and pillage from it”. Loved the experience!
It's a perfect experience to know a little bit more of the Maori culture, I would recommend it 100%
It was a great experience to witness such amazing culture. People were very welcoming and the Guide beautifully narrated the history of his people. My husband and I had been reading about Māori cultural so it was fascinating to see it. We will definitely revisit.
