Tauranga may be the largest city in the Bay of Plenty, but it's also home to a number of scenic delights and historically significant areas with a reverence for its Maori heritage. Experience it all with an excursion that begins with a narrated scenic drive around the bay to the Elms Mission Station, a restored traditional English house dating back to 1835. Feel free to wander this breathtaking and tranquil oasis and learn how the Maori were given the opportunity to learn about Christianity, and were educated in reading and writing, as well as learning agricultural and domestic skills. Your next stop is Kiwifruit Country and a walk through the lush kiwi orchards. Browse for kiwi-related souvenirs in the small marketplace at the Village Community Hall and enjoy a bevy of delicious refreshments. A return to port takes you past the impressive Maori War Canoe.
