Rangatira Park

Taupō

Huka Falls is one of the most powerful waterfalls we've ever seen. Every second up to 220,000 litres of water gushes through the gorge. Besides that the best time to visit, in our opinion, is when the sun is about to set and the sky is painted in purple! #HukaFalls #LongExposure #Waterfall #Sunset #Nature #NewZealand

If you are somewhere around Lake Taupo and you are looking for a camp, come here at the Reids Farm. Waking up just one step from the river is really nice way to start a day.

The Oasis Beach Motel is a poor cousin to the Millennium Hotel (which owns it) next door. It has a beautiful lakeside location, but you need a lakeside unit before you get to enjoy that view. Otherwise, you may as well stay in a cheaper motel in one of Taupo's backstreets. The majority of the Oasis ...

At a “5 star” hotel, I don’t expect to get a “king” that is just 2 beds pushed together. The hotel itself might, MIGHT have been a 5 star in its day, but not now. Maybe a 4. We stayed in a Doubletree the night before, that was WAY better, and only a 4 star. Breakfast was just OK. They seemed to run ...
