Rotorua Museum is fortunate to be housed in an area rich in history, and following the closure of the Bath House building in November 2016 for seismic strengthening, Rotorua Museum is offering free ‘outside the walls’ guided tours around Government Gardens.
Take in the Museum grounds, learn some of the interesting history of battles, buildings and the Government Gardens which were transformed from a “wilderness” of scrub, hot pools and geysers into an oasis of Victorian charm.
Bring good walking shoes and clothing suitable for the weather. Tours depart from the top of the stairs in front of the Bath House in Government Gardens – weather dependent.
Daily Tours at 11am
Meet at the top of the steps in front of the Bath House
Bookings are advised: julie.parsons@rotorualc.nz
The walking tours are a great way to learn about some of the lesser known stories and geothermal nature of the area. Tours are tailored to your interests, can take up to 1 – 1.5 hours and take in the fascinating history of the area including historical buildings, gardens, art and Māori carvings.
