Day
Reception at the airport by the guide and transfer to the hotel. Rest of the day free. Accommodation.
Breakfast. We start the day with a visit to the West Coast, namely the Muriwai Regional Park, whose main feature is its black sand coast. This beach is very popular for surfing and is also home to a colony of gannets. These magnificent birds expand their wings to over a meter in length. We will continue our visit to the Auckland Museum with its interesting collection of Maori and Polynesian art and relics, then we will visit the Parnell neighborhood where we will take a stroll through one of the oldest neighborhoods in Auckland, then towards Mission Bay. Then we will return to the city center to visit the Viaduct, followed by a visit to the Sky Tower, the 328 meter high Auckland Tower. From there you can admire a unique view of the city and its two bays: Waitemata and Manukau. Return to the hotel. Accommodation.
Breakfast. Depart for Waitomo to visit the famous caves of luminous larvae, known as the Waitomo Glowworm Caves. We will begin the journey south of Auckland through the Bombay Hills, crossing the rich agricultural region of Waikato. The highlight of the visit is a boat trip along the Waitomo River, to contemplate thousands of glowing worm lights that form the Glowworm Cave. When you enter this galaxy of tiny living lights, you will experience a serene environment and you will be fascinated and intrigued by the small luminous worms that illuminate your path. At the end of the visit, you will enjoy a traditional New Zealand style barbacoa in a local restaurant. After lunch we will continue to the hotel in Rotorua. In the afternoon we will visit Te Puia, Thermal Reserve and Maorí Cultural Center with the National Institute of Art and Crafts of Nueva Zelanda, where a prestigious wooden school operates. In this reserve you will see several deposits of silica and clay boiling and there will be a tour of geysers that form part of it. You will be received in the traditional way and will see a demonstration of Maori dances and songs. You will enjoy the typical Maori cultural scene. Finally, transfer to the hotel. Accommodation.
