Lake Taupo Sunset Sailing Trip

At the indicated time, we'll meet at Taupo Harbour, where we'll board a sailing boat that will take us to a fantastic area to admire one of the most beautiful sunsets in New Zealand.

During the crossing, we'll explore the largest lake in New Zealand while the last rays of the sun reflect on the water. You'll fall in love with the sight of orange and pink hues bathing Taupo's beautiful nature!

Another highlight of the tour will be at Mine Bay, where we'll admire the huge Māori rock carvings on the side of the cliffs. We'll tell you the story of Ngātoro-i-rangi​, the Māori navigator who led different tribes to Lake Taupo.

And, to top it all off, we'll have a drink on board while watching the sunset!

After 2.5 hours of exploring this stunning part of New Zealand, we'll end the tour back at the starting point.
