Rotorua - Skyline Gondola and Rotorua Geothermal

Hit the heights of Rotorua with a trip to Skyline Rotorua for some adventure or to just enjoy the views,followed by an afternoon exploring many of the geothermal sights of the city.
Skyline Rotorua:
A stunning complex sitting high on the slopes of Mt Ngongotaha - this place has something for all ages!
Included in our tour is the scenic cable car (gondola) ride up to the top station to enjoy the panoramic views
of the city and lake far below.
There are a number of optional things to see and do at the top (all at extra cost). These include:
- Lunch at the sumptuous Stratosfare smorgasbord restaurant, or grab a casual bite to eat at the cafe.
Both options come with amazing views!
- Whizz down the mountainside on the luge. Invented in NZ, luge is part go-kart and part toboggan. Great fun for all ages!
- Get your adrenalin buzz on the zipline or skyswing rides - for the more adventurous.
- Taste a number of exquisite wines and cheeses at Rotoruas only winery - Volcanic Hills. Or get your retail fix at some of the great retail stores.
Leaving Skyline we will tour through Rotorua city to show you boiling springs, bubbling mud pools and steaming lakes. We also stop at the iconic photo stops at the Government Gardens and lakefront before heading back towards Tauranga.
Our return to the port follows a different route from the morning, stopping to see the Kaituna River at Okere
Falls - a deep and narrow gorge used for whitewater rafting. Then it is on to a Kiwifruit orchard to see and taste products from this iconic New Zealand fruit.
