Rotorua
Live Māori haka and hāngī feasts
About This Experience
Rotorua is the best place in New Zealand to experience living Māori culture, not a museum version of it — several marae and cultural centres host evening experiences that include a traditional pōwhiri welcome, haka and waiata performances, and a hāngī feast cooked in an underground earth oven for several hours. The combination of ceremony, food and storytelling gives visitors a far deeper introduction to Māori history and values than a daytime attraction alone can offer.
