    The performance was so commercialised it felt like Disneyland. The village itself was not explained unless you had a guide and 30 people with you. Very disappointing.

    One of NZ's oldest Maori tourism experiences. Options include the self-guided geothermal trail and the guided Village tour. We chose the former. It was a relaxed hour's stroll around a loop track, taking in boiling mud, bubbling water, and lots of steam. Fairly easy track with a modest hill providing some good vantage points. Only poor aspect is the subpar toilet block out by the ticket office.

    Visited the village whilst in Rotarua and it was a real gem. The village is home to the geothermal springs and the hot bubbling mud pools. The people working here are very friendly. There are a number of options when visiting such as a self guided trail and a guided tour also there is a cycle trail. There is a cultural show also which was highly enjoyable. Highlight to us was a personal one where we had our photo taken with a photo from my wife's mother at the same place from 70 years ago.

    The village was very welcoming and showed my friends and I a lot about the culture. Being a tourist in a foreign country can be intimidating, but the people here made sure we felt welcomed. I would highly recommend visiting the village to get a true New Zealand experience.

    The self guided was great as we could take our time enjoying the geothermal sights. Well worth the price too. The car park can fill up so you may need to wait for a spot to free up.
