Offering great flexibility to those with minimal time, this 5-day itinerary takes you from Auckland to Rotorua. En route, visit the Waitomo Caves believed to be over two million years old and a major attraction for visitors fascinated by their large population of glowworms and beautiful stalactite and stalagmite formations. On arrival at Rotorua, check into your hotel for 2 nights’ accommodation. Here you will experience spouting geysers and boiling mud pools which showcase geothermal New Zealand at its best. You may also enjoy the option of a traditional Maori concert and Hangi (feast) for a taste of New Zealand’s indigenous culture. A visit to the Agrodome gives you an insight into New Zealand's important farming industry before going on to Napier for 1 night in one of most picturesque of the country's less 'touristy' areas. Enjoy the serenity of Hawke's Bay before going on to the capital, Wellington for 1 night. The drive to Wellington is punctuated by towering mountain peaks and breathtaking rocky seascapes.
