Top Tongariro National Park Sightseeing Tours

Trek across stark volcanic terrain on the Tongariro Alpine Crossing, one of New Zealand’s Great Walks. This independent day hike takes you past Mt Tongariro, located within the UNESCO-listed Tongariro National Park. You’re provided with a round-trip transfer, map, and information sheet to prepare you for the 12.5-mile (20-km) trek which takes anywhere from six to 10 hours.

The Tongariro Crossing is a popular one day hike across the volcanic National Park in the central North Island, with plenty of dramatic views to reward the tenacious hiker. Rather than tackling this challenging walk solo – and organizing all your transport and gear with it – walk the Crossing in a small group on this accessible day trip from Taupō. Hear about the region’s importance to Māori history and mythology from your local guide, and follow their lead when things keep tough – your guide is on hand to keep you safe.
