This morning we journey to the crest of Mount Eden, one of Auckland's extinct volcanoes, to enjoy spectacular panoramic views of the city and its beautiful harbours.  Leaving the "City of Sails" we travel south through the rich dairy land of the Waikato Province to Waitomo Caves.  Here we experience a guided tour of the underground limestone caverns, including the magnificent 'Cathedral' cave.  Join a silent boat ride and glide through a mystical grotto, carved by an underground river over thousands of years and lit by thousands of tiny glow worms.  Emerge into daylight and continue to Rotorua, a city built on an area of geothermal activity and an important centre for North Island Maori culture.  Tonight immerse yourself in culture as you enjoy a Maori Hangi (Feast) and Cultural Performance of traditional dances accompanied by song.
