Groupon Recommends
In Wellington, check out the innovative Te Papa museum on the waterfront; ride the historic cable car to the Botanic Garden; or hit the fabulous boutique shops of Cuba, Willis, Victoria, Wakefield and Featherston Streets. For an other-worldly experience in Rotorua, head to Kuirau Park where visitors wander among boiling mud pools, crater lakes and sulphur vents; or visit Whakarewarewa where the renowned Pohutu geyser erupts several times a day. In Auckland, drink in the views from the top of Mangere mountain or head into the city and visit the famous Sky Tower.
