Reviews: Rotorua: Hell's Gate Geothermal Walk
Guest User2025-12-19
Great place to be. The landscape is so unique. The smell of Sulphur is quite pungent. So if you have really young kids they may find it hard. The staff are pretty chill. Really good food options and cafe too.★

The tour is super nice, Luke our guide was very engaging and gave us plenty of information. We not only learned about the reserve, but also about Māori culture, and some fun facts about New Zealand’s nature and history. Top experience.
