Village maori
Bien mais il manque beaucoup de culture maori

Super intéressant
Belle visite du village Whakarewarewa, notre guide était super sympa et claire. C'était très intéressant d'en apprendre plus sur ces villages communautaires. On a pu goûter du maïs cuit dans la source, se balader à travers le village, super !

Bien mais sans plus
Intéressant de voir comment vivent les maoris mais la partie géothermie est trop légère et on ne voit que peu les geysers. Guide particulièrement gentille en revanche et passionnant de voir comment le peuple vit avec la terre

Petit village Maori
Petite visite sympathique dans un village un peu vide, mais qui mériterait d'avoir une traduction dans la langue du pays car nous avons compris la moitié des explications du guide, dommage. Surpris également de ne pas avoir eu d'information sur l'heure approximative du grand geyser sachant qu'il démarre toutes les 1h15 environ
