Craters of the Moon
Nice walk through a geothermal landscape close to Taupo.
The walkways are mostly brand new and guarantee an easy walk. $8 is fair for what you get. Nice staff, welcoming you, clean toilets and a sweet gift shop.

Whakarewarewa The Living Maori Village
I was really disappointed because the cultural performance was not authentic.
I saw far better ones. It was really expensive and very touristy. We missed the guided tour which sounded funny and interesting from what we could hear.

Waipu Caves Track
A long gravel road but worth it, we did not do the walk just the cave and it was stunning and absolutely free.
Experienced beautiful glowworm filled ceilings. It is muddy and dark in the cave, be prepared. Toilets at the parking area.

Karangahake Gorge Historic Walkway
Stunning landscape, interesting history, easy walks - made a great day for us.
We wanted to do the 2.5 hours tunnel loop only and ended up walking the whole territory. Bring a torch if you dare to experience the dark tunnels.
