Full Description

Departing from our city-centre lakefront floatplane pier, experience the thrill of a floatplane take off before climbing above Mokoia Island on track to discover our hidden lakes district. Climbing over our eastern ridgeline our terrain reveals the lakes of Okataina, Tarawera, Okareka, Rotokakahi (Green Lake) and Tikitapu (Blue Lake). These stunning crater lakes are surrounded by native forests and pastoral lands, hidden from the city by our volcanic terrain. Only an aerial perspective reveals the true beauty of this region. Returning to the lakefront our descent takes us over the Whakarewarewa Thermal Valley, Pohutu Geyser then across the Rotorua City before landing back at Lake Rotorua.
