Maori Waitangi

Es war eine sehr informative Veranstaltung. Alles hat wunderbar geklappt. Das Essen war sehr lecker, auch wir Vegetarier wurden satt. Wir konnten sogar am nächsten Tag noch das Museum besuchen, war alles im Preis inbegriffen.

Preis Leistung stimmt nicht wirklich

Nette Anlage, man erfährt sicher viele Hintergrund Infos über den Ursprung Neuseelands. Allerdings wenn man der englischen Sprache nicht ganz so mächtig ist, eher langweilig. Der Abend war eher so lala. Bei der abendlichen "Show" war nicht viel neues dabei, da wir um 16h bereits eine Vorführung mitgemacht hatten. Das Essen war auch nicht wirklich besonders. Kam sehr ans europäische heran, lediglich der Nachtisch war für uns neu.

Hangi and Concert Waitangi

Thiroughly enjoyed this experience and would recommend it the cultural experience was fun and Hangi delicious especially the Pork . If you are visiting you don’t need to do the day cultural production as the evening is a lot better
