As I stayed in Auckland in June,2006, I took a bus for Rotorua but it was Queen's birthday so there were very few shuttle buses between Rotorua city centre and Hell's gate so I took a taxi instead. I first walked in Hell's gate then had a mud bath as well as ye did. I would love to go there again to stay in Rotorua at least for two days. cheers

Amazing video now we are definitely spending some time in Rotorua! Can I please check exactly what month did you go to Rotorua? You seem to have gotten some nice weather during your trip there. We are from Canada and would like to time our trip when it's not too hot but just warm enough for us to be outside without our thick jackets :).

Thank you for watching! I think we visited early May :) We were lucky with the weather! May is probably the last month I would recommend visiting - in June it starts to turn as winter gets close. Enjoy your trip!

Upon discovering mud baths for the first time, I recalled encountering hot springs in Chitral, northern Pakistan, where nearby hotels have redirected this water into their swimming pools and bath showers. Initially, it might seem unusual, but after a few minutes, it feels like a full-body massage. While I practice this in the summer, I believe it would be even more enjoyable in the winter.

How lovely!! Thanks Zakri ❤️ I’m very keen to experience hot springs in winter too

Thanks Tracy! Such a great experience. The platforms in the trees are constructed and hung in a way that doesn’t affect the trees at all as well, which is so cool and clever!! I can’t believe she jumped from that platform to be honest!! But she did it 🤩

The pounamu was a gift, and the pronounciation is going to be different for everyone based on accents, speech, etc
