Family Fun

Create unforgettable memories in Rotorua that you'll cherish for years to come.
 
Traveling with your family becomes an exciting adventure when the best attractions, cafés, restaurants, and free activities are all within easy reach, meaning less time in the car and more time for F-U-N.
 
Imagine the joy of stopping to pat giant bunnies on a mini golf course, feeding adorable alpacas, sheep, and other farm animals at Agrodome, or exploring the charming small-animal enclosure after attempting to reach the centre of the live maze at aMAZEme – a delightful spot to let the kids roam and enjoy.
 
For thrill-seekers, Rotorua offers exhilarating adventures like rolling downhill in a giant inflatable ZORB or racing each other on the five thrilling Luge tracks at Skyline Rotorua. The excitement doesn’t stop there; countless adventures await.
 
Geothermal parks will leave your children wide-eyed with wonder at the sight of steam rising from the earth, bubbling mud pools, erupting geysers, and strangely coloured lakes that  you’d expect to see only in a Dr Seuss book. Polynesian Spa and Waikite Valley Hot Pools feature family hot pools for extra fun. Don’t miss the magical and ever-so-popular Redwoods Treewalk and Nightlights, a network of eco-suspended bridges through the forest canopy. Walking and biking through Whakarewarewa Forest is also a fantastic way to enjoy nature, as are the 18 picturesque lakes, free to visit year-round.

For thrill-seekers young and not-so-young, Redwoods Altitude showcases even more of the forest as you ascend 25 metres (27 yards) up and around the trunk of a giant California redwood tree, then make your way across 25 Indiana Jones-style eco-suspended jungle bridges.

Eternal favourites include exhilarating adventures like rolling downhill in a giant inflatable ZORB or racing down five thrilling Luge tracks at Skyline Rotorua. The excitement doesn’t stop there; countless adventures await at Adventure Playground, Off Road NZ, and Velocity Valley.

When the weather isn’t on your side, Rotorua still delivers endless fun with indoor activities. Motion Entertainment offers ten-pin bowling, mini golf, a trampoline park, escape rooms, Chipmunks Playland, a plethora of electronic games and the newest attraction, Vortex Ninja Park – all under one roof! For more unique experiences, check out the 3D Trick Art Gallery or embark on a WWII amphibious vehicle tour to keep everyone entertained.
