"Rotorua - feel the spirit - Manaakitanga". It's our catchcry . . . and it holds a pretty powerful promise as well as an invitation to experience the essence of our extraordinary slice of New Zealand. A deep-rooted Maori cultural concept, Manaakitanga places a responsibility on us as your hosts to give you the best of ourselves, our time and our history. A feeling you'll return home with, Manaakitanga begins the moment you arrive in Rotorua whether seeking adventure, rejuvenation, experiences with nature and earth forces, or soaking up Maori and European history, art and culture. Rotorua - it's like no other place on earth.
