Blue Spring | Crystal-Clear Waters

Discover the striking Blue Spring, renowned for its exceptionally clear waters and vivid blue-green colour. Take a leisurely walk through the surrounding landscape and enjoy views of the spring and native vegetation. The peaceful setting provides a beautiful contrast to Auckland's urban energy.

Midday | Journey Towards Rotorua

Continue towards Rotorua, travelling through the changing scenery of the Central North Island. Take a moment to relax in your private vehicle before continuing with the day's exploration.

Whakarewarewa | Land of Steam & Fire

Explore the geothermal environment of Whakarewarewa, where the landscape is shaped by volcanic activity. See steaming vents, bubbling pools and geothermal features while learning about the region's natural environment and its connection to M?ori heritage.

Afternoon | Redwoods Forest

Continue to the magnificent Redwoods Forest. Walk beneath towering trees and along peaceful forest trails surrounded by native vegetation. The forest's enormous Californian redwoods create an atmosphere unlike anywhere else in the region and provide beautiful opportunities for photography and nature appreciation.

Late Afternoon | Return to Auckland

After a day among clear springs, geothermal landscapes and towering forests, settle back into your private vehicle for the journey north. Your chauffeur will return you to your Auckland accommodation, concluding a day of discovery through some of the Central North Island's most distinctive landscapes.
