Day 1: Auckland - Waitomo - Rotorua
This morning we will pick you up from your arranged location before heading south to Rotorua. Then you get the chance to view the city from Mt Eden, a volcanic cone and Auckland’s highest natural point.  Continue south to Waitomo, where you will see the amazing geological features of the caves, before taking a tranquil boat ride to view the glow-worms.  Later in the day travel on to Rotorua, a town with a distinctive aroma due to the geothermal activity in the region.  A great meal option is the Tamaki Maori Hangi and Concert – which is an entertaining way to learn more about Maori culture as well as eat traditional food.

Day 2: Rotorua - Taupo
Take a stroll through the redwood forest before witnessing the eruption of Lady Knox Geyser.  View boiling mud, brightly coloured pools and silica terraces at Wai O Tapu thermal wonderland.  If you are feeling adventurous, try the Giant Swing or the Trapeze at Rock n Ropes. Stop briefly at Huka Falls before arriving in Taupo – where you have the afternoon to try some of the many activities on offer in this stunning lakeside town.

Day 3: Taupo - Wellington
Today you will view some of the most spectacular scenery on offer as you drive through New Zealand’s first National Park – Tongariro.  The scenery may look familiar to those who have seen the Lord of the Rings trilogy, as extensive filming took place here.  Continue down to Wellington, where you will get a great view of the city from the summit of Mt Victoria before being dropped off at your accommodation.  While you are in the capital make sure you visit Te Papa, the national museum.
