Geyserland

Tour Map

Tour style - Active & Adrenaline, Flexible hop-on hop-off, Wildlife & Nature

4 days

The Geyserland pass is a 4 sector trip showing you the big highlights just south of Auckland. The first leg is to the beautiful Coromandel Peninsula with its amazing beaches. Then on to Waitomo (wai meaning water, tomo meaning cave) where you will get the chance to see glow-worms, stalactites, cave coral, fossilized oysters and other crazy stuff in the limestone caves formed from 40 million year old dead fish. From Waitomo you'll head to Rotorua, recognised as the Maori cultural, and geothermal capital of New Zealand. You can partake in a traditional feast and marvel at the boiling mud and shooting geysers.  Do all of this before heading back to Auckland. Another great Kiwi Experience.   If you are travelling before 24 April 2012 and only have 4 days to complete your trip, you'll need to depart on a Monday, Tuesday or Friday.   If you are travelling between 24 April and 30 June 2012 and only have 4 days to complete your trip, you'll need to depart on a Friday.
  • Auckland to Hot Water Beach

    Spend the afternoon walking or kayaking to Cathedral Cove, or take a surfing lesson at Hot Water Beach! After visiting the Kiwi Experience office and Mt Eden (one of many dormant volcanoes in Auckland) we head towards the Coromandel Peninsula and spend the afternoon at Cathedral Cove; accessible only on foot or by kayak. This beautiful coastal spot is great for swimming, sea kayaking, and spotting dolphins if you're lucky. We then carry on to Hot Water Beach (rated one of the top ten beaches in the world by Lonely Planet) where you can take a surfing lesson and head out with your shovel at low tide to dig your own hot pool in the sand.

  • Hot Water Beach to Waitomo

    Check out New Zealand's gold mining history before travelling on to experience the glow-worms, underwater caves and forest walks of Waitomo. After an early start our first stop is the Karangahake Scenic Reserve to explore a native bush-clad gorge, swing bridges and a bit of New Zealand's gold mining history. Next it's onto Waitomo (wai meaning water, tomo meaning cave) where you will get the chance to see glow-worms, stalactites, cave coral, fossilized oysters and other crazy stuff in the limestone caves formed from 40 million year old dead fish.

  • Waitomo to Rotorua

    Last chance to explore Waitomo before heading to Rotorua, the Maori culture capital of New Zealand. We start the day with a walk through the Ruakuri Reserve and a breakfast stop at the Long Black Café before heading through to Rotorua. In the afternoon you'll have a chance to go along to a farm show, go Zorbing, luging, and try out a crazy activity or two at Agroventures. In the evening you can experience a traditional Maori hangi (feast) and concert with Tamaki Tours - a night not to be missed!
