This is one of our favourite trips in New Zealand. Great value for money. From the very beginning through to our bus journey home we experienced and learned about Maori history, traditions and culture. The 'hangi' which was our evening meal was lovely, cooked in an underground pit. The entertainment was fantastic and interactive with all guests as I found... More

This was a real highlight of our trip to New Zealand. It's a really authentic and fun experience that gives you an opportunity to see first hand the wonderful Maori culture. It's so well organised and the staff are just exceptional. If you do nothing else in New Zealand, do this!

Money well spend, there was a great show at the entrance and a look into Maori history and their traditions. Well of ya like your food, it was great.

Thanks so much to all! We had such a great evening, will definitely be recommending to friends and family! Highlight of my night was my father and my brother attempting to do the Haka - definitely some practice needed there by the men in my family! Thanks so much!

Most enjoyable evening for all ages. We had our 2 boys aged 7 and 10 and they enjoyed it alot. It was a memorable part of our holiday:-)

The Tamaki Maori Village won't be to everyone's taste. If you're expecting a genuine Maori village with friendly 'natives', you won't find it here (or anywhere in NZ - this is 2013 and it's a first world country!).
