“Kia ora” welcome to Rotorua,
Winner of New Zealand's Best City SIX times!

We proudly claim that the Rotorua region captures the best of New Zealand all in one place!

Whether seeking to experience Maori culture, geothermal earth forces, spa rejuvenation, thrills and adventure, or any of the other natural assets such as 16 lakes, some of the world's best mountain biking trails, fantastic trout fishing and myriad forest walking tracks – Rotorua delivers it all!

This site, Rotorua's official website, details all essential Rotorua information including attractions and activities, tours and daytrips, the vast range of accommodation choices, what's on now plus upcoming events, and how to get here. We also showcase our art, culture, history, legends, personalities, buildings, population and weather.

"Rotorua - feel the spirit – Manaakitanga" is our catch-cry . . . and it holds a pretty powerful promise as well as an invitation to experience our extraordinary slice of New Zealand. A deep-rooted Maori cultural concept, Manaakitanga places a responsibility on us as your hosts to give you the best of ourselves, our time and our history.

“Nau mai, haere mai”  Welcome, welcome, welcome to Rotorua
