Combine 3 of the most epic driving experiences you can find in this ultimate drive package.

Make your way just outside of Rotorua to Off Road NZ. Here, you'll jump in the driver's seat for a thrilling 4WD Bush Safari, followed by taking a seat in the monster 4X4 as your professional driver tackles a seemingly impossible off road course.

Next, it's back in the hot seat for 10 minutes of racing in some of the most powerful and top of the line karts in New Zealand, on the country's largest outdoor karting circuit.

Why is this Chuffed Worthy?

James from Chuffed has visited Off Road NZ at least 20 times in the last 15 years - with his wife, visiting friends and family, groups of friends. Part of it's charm is it's remote location on a 125 hectare farm 25 minutes drive into the hills from Rotorua. The fun is addictive, and the competitive spirit against yourself and your friends comes to the fore. So when Chuffed was born - Off Road NZ was one of the first calls James made to see if they wanted to be a partner. And lucky for everyone they said yes.

This incredible evening experience begins with a 90 minute guided tour of the Geothermal Valley at Te Puia,  a 60-hectare landscape of native bush, geysers, and mud pools, and feel the natural power of Pōhutu Geyser– the largest geyser in the Southern Hemisphere!

Next, it's time for a mouth-watering buffet at our world-famous Pātaka Kai Restaurant, Bar, and Cafe. With locally sourced cuisine and an authentic Māori twist in each dish, our buffet is guaranteed to be a favourite.

Following this, you will be led to view an exhilarating cultural performance that takes place in our beautifully carved meeting house, Te Aronui a Rua. It will include a Pōhiri (Traditional Māori Welcome), Waiata (Song), Mōteatea (traditional chant), Poi, and Haka.

Afterward, return to the geothermal valley on our waka (electric shuttle) for a hot chocolate seated on a naturally heated rock terrace overlooking the powerful Pōhutu Geyser.

Rotorua Canopy Tours

TripAdvisor declared Rotorua Canopy Tour's Original Experience the 11th best experience in the world in 2021. That's pretty high praise.

You need to allow yourself 3 and a half hours to experience this activity which is surprisingly suitable for almost everyone.

After meeting at their base on the outskirts of Rotorua where you meet you guides who ooze professionalism and fun times you'll be transported up to a magical forest that appears to have been lost in time. You'll immediately be struck with how you feel as you are transported to another world full of amazing trees, ferns, smells and noise.

Perhaps the most impressive feat by the team at Canopy Tours is over the past 10 years they have removed all the possums and rats from this once unloved and forgotten slice of New Zealand forest and restored it to a pest free environment - so much so that you can spot many bird species and in an amazing highlight of the expereince, even handfeed wild robins.

The experience consists of 6 ziplines for a total of 1.2 kilometres. They vary from shooting you through tight gaps in the forest layer to giant swooping flights through deep forested valleys. There is even a 400 metre tandem line so you can race you partner....but this tour is so much more than an adreneline rush.

In addition there are a number of suspended bridges that span wide valleys, floating staircases and one of the highlights - the 50 metre high cliff walk - that appears seemingly out of no where as you arrive perched high on it after a zipline flight out of the forest canopy.

It's a truly special experience, suitable for anyone with a okay level of fitness. It operates in all weather but does suspend operations when high winds exist.
