Rotorua is New Zealand's geothermal wonderland — a city on the North Island where the earth bubbles, steams, and hisses, where boiling mud pools gurgle, geysers shoot high into the air, and the omnipresent smell of sulfur reminds you that volcanic forces are at work beneath the surface. At the same time, Rotorua is the cultural heart of the Maori and New Zealand's adventure capital.
Wai-O-Tapu (Sacred Water) is the most colorful geothermal area in the world: The Champagne Pool glows in orange, green, and turquoise, the Artists' Palette shimmers in surreal pastel tones, and the Devil's Bath is a surreal neon green crater lake. The Lady Knox Geyser erupts daily at 10:15 AM, shooting water up to 20 meters high.
Te Puia is New Zealand's most significant Maori cultural center: The Pohutu Geyser, the largest in the Southern Hemisphere, erupts up to 20 times a day and reaches heights of 30 meters. In addition to the geysers, carving schools, weaving workshops, and evening Hangi feasts (food cooked in the ground) convey the vibrant culture of the Maori.
The Redwood Treewalk leads over suspension bridges through the crowns of ancient Californian redwood trees: during the day, enjoy forest air and birdsong, at night illuminated by 30 lanterns — a magical night walk at 12 meters high.
Rotorua is New Zealand's adventure hub: Zorbing (rolling down a hill in a plastic ball), luge (summer tobogganing), mountain biking trails through the Whakarewarewa Forest, rafting on the Kaituna River (the highest commercially rafted waterfall in the world), and ziplining through the rainforest.

Highest commercially rafted waterfall in the world (7 m Tutea Falls): white-water rafting through tropical rainforest, wet and breathtaking.
