Orakei Korako Tours and Tickets
Steaming geysers, hot springs, and mud pools bubble up from boiling-hot reservoirs below the Earth’s surface at Orakei Korako geothermal park. The area boasts silica terraces decorated with colorful swirling patterns—the result of the hot water algae—and a rare geothermal cave.

Super Amazing Tour
Awesome, professional and friendly tour guide. Sylvia was very informative and the trip will never be completely beautiful without her. Of course, NZ scenery is breathtaking and spectacular. You will see how amazing Huka fall is too.
Highly recommended Taupo day trip with Orakei Geothermal, Huka fall and Aratiatia tour.

Must see sights
Had a absolutely wonderful time on this tour! Our tour guide Maryanne was terrific getting us around and sharing her knowledge and stories on the different areas visited. Huka Falls was the highlight!

Great walk in nature to see the geothermal pools
Boat ride across to the other side felt like we were going to a private island of steaming geothermal pools and mud pools, an adventure off the mainland. Really enjoyed the walk around, close-up to the action and nature but still safe on the trail. It was bigger than we expected and lots to see, not too crowded either so we could take our time. Does require a reasonable fitness level as quite a few steps to navigate.

Great place for a hike!
This was a great place to visit in our travels from Rotorua to Lake Taupo we stopped at this gem. After a ferry ride over the gorgeous lake we did a self guided hike through the trails. The geothermal activity was amazing to see up close and the cave was pretty cool too! Gorgeous hike that my 8 year old son had a blast doing!
