On arrival you will be met and privately transferred to your accommodation. Auckland is New Zealand's largest city, set between two harbours with gentle sandy shores on the east coast and black sand, wild surf beaches on the west coast. Home to sheltered, sparkling blue waters dotted with beautiful emerald islands, we recommend getting out on the water when you are here. Overnight: Auckland
Depart Auckland on a fully guided journey through the stunning Waikato countryside to Waitomo Caves. Here your guide will lead you on an exploration of the ancient Waitomo Glowworm Caves, with its many different cave formations including stalactites, stalagmites and lime columns, before descending even further underground for a cruise on the grotto river with thousands of glowworms glittering above your head. Your journey then continues on to the geothermal wonderland of Rotorua. Overnight: Rotorua
Visit Rotorua’s most popular geothermal parks on a small group tour. At Wai-O-Tapu Thermal Wonderland, the amazingly colourful hot springs and moon-like landscapes are key features along with the famous Lady Knox geyser eruption. At Waimangu Volcanic Valley, you’ll learn about the Mt Tarawera eruption which blew open this spectacular, bush covered, geothermal park. Your local guide has in depth knowledge about the flora, fauna, geothermal and volcanic activity, Maori culture and history to make your tour an unforgettable experience. Overnight: Rotorua
Leave Rotorua on guided tour to the Hobbiton Movie Set, a working farm that was transformed into The Shire from Middle-earth for the Lord of the Rings and Hobbit movies. On arrival, your specialist guide will escort you around the set pointing out intricate detailing, highlighting the most famous locations and explaining how the movie was made. Finish with a visit to the Green Dragon Inn for a beverage and a sumptuous lunch at the Party Marquee before heading on to Auckland. Overnight: Auckland
