Discover a taste of traditional Maori cuisine at the famous Te Puia hangi buffet dinner in Rotorua. This is one of the best things to do in Rotorua, with delicious dining, cultural performances and views of a dramatic geothermal landscape.
The Te Po indigenous evening experience in Rotorua begins with an unforgettable hangi feast at the Pataka Kai Restaurant. You will be treated to a range of Maori-infused flavours, prepared by Te Puia’s award winning chefs using fresh, locally sourced ingredients.
After dinner, it’s time for a mesmerising cultural performance at the Te Aribui a Rua meeting house. You will be blown away by traditional Maori performances of a pohiri (traditional welcome), moteatea (traditional chant), waiata (song), poi dancing and the famous haka.
Following the excitement of the cultural performance, the Te Po Indigenous Evening Experience comes to an end by enjoying sweet treats in the Te Puia geothermal wonderland. Tuck into hot chocolate and steamed puddings while watching spectacular geysers lit up by different colours in the Te Whakarewarewa Geothermal Valley.
