An interesting experience to see the different craters, pools, and colours. Smelly at times but not all the way. There are 3 routes to choose from - the longest walk taking about 1hr 45 mins.

Geologists give talks at various times around the park - ask at the visitor center when and where as they are short and really interesting!

Make sure to do all three loops and if on a sunny day, you can hear many birds too while enjoying the amazing geothermal stuff.

Simon Diprose

The Lady Knox Geyser is worth seeing. As is the mud pool you pass on the way to Wait-O-Tapu.

Vikash

An amazing 3km walk around some of nature's most amazing spectacles. Highly recommend

Ruben Garcia Mohedano

The park is great to visit, but don't waste money and time on the 10.15's geyser

Monica Desai

Worth a visit en route to Taupo - lots of varied geothermal pools and an early am geyser

Jas

Not to be missed: the lady Knox Geyser and the amazing Champagne Pool, orange and green.

Silveraine Lee

Don't miss this place... Fabulous scenery and beautiful Mother Nature.

Noah Weiss

Insane geothermal playground , perfect for a 2hr walkabout

Dan Money

Cool park with good variety of formations. Definitely skip Lady Knox geyser , it's total scam joke.

Lizzy Gregory

having been to both I personally think I waimangu is more impressive and better to visit (gentle downhill walk and then bus back to the top :)

Daniel

Pretty amazing landscapes and sights. Champagne Lake and Devil's Bath (green pool) are a photographer 's dream.

Lee

This was an amazing experience. Felt like you are visiting another planet

Giulia Raciti

beautiful park but better to go with your own car. Tours don't let you stay more than 75 min. Too short for this stunning park

Pornrapee Abhakorn

Very colorful mud and hot pool , must see!

Phil Eck

Truly a worthwhile experience, I wonder how thin the earth's crust is here? How far down to magma?

Taupo Guide

At 10.15am each day the Lady Knox Geyser provides a unique opportunity to see a geyser in eruption to heights of 10 to 20 metres.
