Geothermal hot springs, Maori cultural experiences, and the only city in NZ where you can smell the ground.
Rotorua is built on top of an active geothermal field. The smell of hydrogen sulfide hits you within 5 minutes of arriving — locals call it the price of admission. Hell's Gate, Te Puia, and Wai-O-Tapu are the three main thermal parks, each with a different scale and pace: Wai-O-Tapu (Champagne Pool, Devil's Bath) is the most photogenic, Te Puia is the cultural center with a working Maori carving school, and Hell's Gate has the smaller-scale active mud pools and a working hot mud spa.
Most Rotorua tours we work with are full-day combinations: thermal park morning + Maori cultural evening (hangi feast and concert) is the standard pattern. The cultural experiences at Tamaki Maori Village and Mitai are the most-respected of the kind. If you're driving, plan for 3 days minimum to do the major sites; if you're on a tour bus, 1 day is enough for a thermal-park-and-hangi combo.
