Things to Do in Rotorua, New Zealand http://malfroymotorlodge.co.nz

1. Things To Do In and Around Rotorua

2. THE ULTIMATE TRIP
• White Island is a live volcanic island located 50 kilometres off the coast due East of Rotorua, and there are two
ways for you to get there and have a memorable 60 – 90 minute guided tour of the island.
• A trip by helicopter is of course the ultimate, as you get such fantastic views of the island as you come in to land.
The pilot is also your guide and very knowledgeable. On the way back you can have the opportunity to stop on
top of Mount Tarawera and look down the 14 kilometre rift valley that was formed when the mountain erupted in
1886. Unbelievably Stupendous! (Allow 4 hours).
• The trip can also be done by boat. You drive across to Whakatane and they take you out to the island in a high
speed, purpose built vessel, this way allows you to (hopefully) see the dolphins playing in the bow wave as you
go. Again you have a guided tour provided by the crew, and we are cinfidant you will never, ever forget the
experience of having walked on a live volcano! (Allow a day for this).

3. ROTORUA CULTURAL
SHOWS
There are a range of
educational and entertaining
cultural shows available that
provide the opportunity to
experience Maori singing and
dancing as well as a Hangi
(Maori feast cooked in the
ground). A couple are based
in hotels, but there are 3 others
that offer much more as they
include seeing the Hangi itself,
and they show a more realistic
view of traditional Maori life.
The 3 are all very good, and
each offers a fantastic evening
experience, please feel free to
ask us questions as we can
explain the differences to make
it easier for you to make up
your mind which would be
more to your liking We base
our knowledge on the feedback
we get from our guests
(Allow 4 hours in the
evening).

4. EXCITING THINGS
Skyline is a fantastic place to visit for all ages. The ride up in the Gondola is so
peaceful, and the views over the City and the lake are fantastic. There is also a
great restaurant up there, that does a very good buffet meal in the evenings –
and we can arrange for you to be picked up from MALFROY Motor Lodge
Rotorua accommodation.

5. GOLF
Rotorua has a superb selection of golf courses catering to all skill levels, including world-
class courses such as Hamurana, Arikikapakapa, Government Gardens and Springfield.
Springfield Golf Club is Rotorua's only championship course. It is known for being Danny
Lee's home club and its extremely tight fairways and its vast amount of trees.
In the Government gardens you will find a 9 hole golf course, mini-golf, and an excellent
driving range.
We also have 3 pitch and putt courses for families to pass a couple of pleasant hours
at. Putt Putt Golf is very popular and also provides the opportunity to race cars on their
track, or to rent a Segway for a couple of hours. A quite unique way to explore Rotorua.
