Rotorua is the geothermal wonderland of New Zealand, with easily experienced Māori culture, family activities and a range of outdoor adventure activities such as white-water rafting and mountain biking. The hot springs and geysers of the city and region have attracted tourists for over a hundred years. Today, many visitors are also attracted by the Māori culture that is more dominant here than in many other parts of the country.
