A Rotorua vacation is jam-packed with adventure, relaxation and culture. This geothermal paradise in the heart of New Zealand's North Island has something for everyone. Some of the must-see sites include Wai-O-Tapu Thermal Wonderland, which is home to incredible natural wonders like the Champagne Pool, the Lady Knox Geyser and the stunning Artist's Palette.
