From Tauranga: Glow Worms, Treetop Walk & No Entry Fees

See guaranteed glow worms, walk among 80-metre redwoods and soak feet in thermal springs, all with no entry fees. Hangi Pie light lunch, and port pickup & dropoff included.
Not every great day in Rotorua needs to cost a fortune in entry fees. This fully guided small group tour is built around the region's most breathtaking natural wonders, and every single stop is free to enter. From the sparkling white-sand beaches of Mount Maunganui to the ancient Redwood Forest, you will see a remarkable amount of Rotorua for exceptional value.

Your day begins with a scenic coastal drive, where your guide introduces the stunning Bay of Plenty and its rich history. Heading inland through steep gorges and lush bush along the historic old coach road, the landscape shifts beautifully before you arrive in Rotorua.

First stop is Kuirau Park, one of New Zealand's most accessible and underrated geothermal hotspots. Walk right up to bubbling mud pools, steaming hot lakes and crystal-clear hot springs. Then slip off your shoes and dip your feet into the natural thermal foot bath. Silky, warm and wonderfully strange.

Your guide then takes you through the magnificent Government Gardens, past the Elizabethan-style Bath House that marked New Zealand's very first investment in tourism. You will stop at Rachel Pool, a beautifully clear alkaline hot spring, and Sulphur Bay on Lake Rotorua, where birds and vegetation have adapted to thrive in the acidic geothermal environment.

At Te Whakarewarewa, enjoy a traditional Hangi Pie, made with ingredients slow-cooked in geothermal steam, with a view of the Living Maori Village from the bridge. A genuine taste of local culture.

The Redwood Forest is the crown jewel of the afternoon. Step inside the purpose-built Glow Worm Grotto for a guided encounter with these remarkable creatures, glowing softly in the darkness above you. Glow worms are guaranteed here. Then head up to the Forest Canopy Tree Walk, suspended high above the forest floor among towering 100-year-old redwoods reaching nearly 80 metres into the sky. Cool air, ancient trees and views that stop you in your tracks.

On the return to Tauranga along the scenic coastal route, your guide shares the fascinating story of Bay of Plenty kiwifruit, with orchards stretching across the landscape that produce 85% of New Zealand's beloved export.
