One of our most popular destinations is Rotorua, New Zealand's top tourist spot, located just an hour's drive from Tauranga. Explore the geothermal wonders and Maori culture in this amazing city. Alternatively, you can take a guided tour of the magical Hobbiton Movie Set, where you'll be transported to the world of Middle-earth. During your tour, you'll witness erupting geysers, boiling mud, and steaming hot pools, all while enjoying stunning scenery and visiting scenic lakes, the beautiful Redwoods Forest, a kiwifruit orchard, or even soaking in hot mineral spa pools. Throughout your journey, you'll be provided with full audio commentary on New Zealand's history, economy, and other interesting facts.
