From Auckland: Wai Ariki Hot Springs and Redwood Treewalk Small Group Tour

Embark on a rejuvenating journey that beautifully blends wellness, culture, and nature on this small-group day tour from Auckland to Rotorua. Your experience begins at Wai Ariki Hot Springs and Spa, an extraordinary wellness destination inspired by the centuries-old Ngāti Whakaue healing traditions. Here, a 2-hour restorative program guides you through a unique, multi-sensory journey that harnesses the power of geothermal heat, mineral-rich waters, natural mud, and healing steam. Purposefully designed to relax, restore, and rebalance mind, body, and spirit, this therapeutic experience offers a true sense of renewal drawn from Māori wisdom and Rotorua’s geothermal energy.

After your wellness immersion, reconnect with nature at the Redwoods Treewalk, an award-winning forest experience set among towering Californian redwoods. Wander along a series of elevated walkways suspended high above the forest floor, surrounded by birdsong, dappled sunlight, and the scent of pine. This serene forest escape offers a sense of peace and grounding — the perfect way to complete a day of balance, beauty, and inner calm in the heart of Rotorua.
