Overview

Enter the world of Mitai Māori Village and embrace our history and culture. Watch our stories unfold through the dynamic scenes of our warriors paddling down Wai-o-Whiro stream, the melodious sounds of our instruments and entertainment from our performers including the haka. Satisfy your hunger with the traditional Māori Hangi and concluding your evening with a walk through our forest to see the ancient, fortified village learning the old ways of living and survival of our people and discover the natural resource Te Puna a Tuhoe, freshwater spring. The evening is not over until you glimpse the glow worms light up the banks of forest as the veil of darkness sets in. Nau mai, haere mai, whakatau mai – come and experience our world…

Authentic Cultural Experience

Published on Feb, 2025

A place I always take overseas visitors to. A professional, authentic, unique cultural experience. The meal is fabulous. The standard is always exceptional.

Great way to learn about Māori Culture

Published on Feb, 2025

Fun filled evening learning about the Māori culture with great food provided by the family via a hangi.

Must see!

Published on Feb, 2025

Very enjoyable evening where you felt welcomed and a universal feeling of togetherness. Staring with the host and continuing on to the performers, you were taught about the culture and totally entertained by the demonstration and singing. Food was excellent. Great experience!

Wonderful Māori welcome

Published on Feb, 2025

Fabulous, warm experience and little dip into understanding Māori culture. Very engaging host who, with help of his family really bring it all to life in such a meaningful way. We loved it! Lunch was great too. Kia Ora!

Great cultural evening
