Maori are the indigenous people of New Zealand and their influence on modern Kiwi life can be seen all over the island, but we think that it’s the roots of Maori culture that are most interesting to witness and so we’ve scoured the best places to truly immerse yourself in their culture and will include visits to Rotorua where you’ll explore a Tamaki Maori Village and a living thermal village, and there will be many opportunities to see Maori arts and cultural events such as haka dances.
