2/1-2 Rotorua (Tauranga), New Zealand

Rotorua is a city in the Bay of Plenty Region of New Zealand's North Island. The city lies on the southern shores of Lake Rotorua, from which it takes its name. It is a beautiful little town at the base of Mount Maunganui and boasts beautiful clean, clear water and gorgeous sandy beaches. It is primarily known for bubbling mud pools, shooting geysers and natural hot springs, as well as showcasing our fascinating Māori culture.

We arrived early enough on day one to wander about and have lunch at a wonderful restaurant, Latitude 37. On day two of our visit, we went on a tour to a Kiwifruit Orchard in Te Puke where we enjoyed fresh kiwi and were entertained by Mauri singers and dancers.
