In the village you will be shown the tools and skills of the Maori hunter, his cooking techniques, (your hangi dinner being lifted out of the ground) the games he played to pass away his day and traditional instruments used to communicate with his Gods.
The 45 minute kapahaka performance includes action songs, poi dances, (long and short poi), haka, stick games, weapons displays and the opportunity to learn the poi and haka.
Finally enjoy a four course dinner with hangi cooked mains served by the same performers that entertained you.

Great performance,good food!
Interactive show and dancing was good...? The so called Hãngi meal was disappointing.. Not cooked traditionally which is the main Reason we booked the show and meal...?
I really enjoyed the experience of another culture and it was a great insight into the practices of the traditional owners of the land.

Awesome evening learning about the Maori culture
Food was great, and plentiful, dined next to the deer, learned so much about the culture and were thoroughly entertained! Highly recommend!
