With a wide range of
nightclubs, restaurants, bars, live music and theatre, our country's
nightlife offers something for most age groups (the legal drinking age is
18). Live bands are popular with younger pub-goers and jazz venues
attract a more mature audience. Nightclubs vary in music genres, and the
diversity of quality live theatre ensures all interests are catered for.
If you enjoy a punt or two, then try your luck at a casino, where you'll
find a range of gaming tables and machines (20 is the minimum age for
entry). If you're a smoker, then please note that there is a smoking ban
inside all restaurants, casinos, pubs, bars and nightclubs, although
provision is made outside of these establishments for smokers.
Waitomo Caves: Spectacular sculpted limestone outcrops, 'disappearing' streams and natural bridges give tourists several clues that Waitomo is different. It has two landscapes - one above ground and one below. Take a boat ride through a glow-worm cave, or go adventure caving and cave abseiling (rappelling) or float along under a 'sky' of glow-worms through huge caverns scattered with ancient stalactites. Jump on a 4WD trail bike, go skydiving, horse trekking, jet boating, take in a kiwi-culture show, rabbit shearing, wildlife park, forest and farm walk, or go on a Maori scenic cultural tour. Explore the three-hour Waitomo Walkway starting opposite the i-SITE Visitor Information Centre and Museum of Caves and experience Waitomo's beautiful rolling farmland, native forest and spectacular limestone features, including the Ruakuri Natural Bridge; and, at night see the magnificent glow-worm display near Ruakuri car park (free maps available from the i-SITE). Take a 30-minute drive west to the Mangapohue Natural Bridge, self-guided Piripiri Caves and the Marokopa Falls; and, take a further 20 minutes to Marokopa and the wild and beautiful west coast. From Marokopa, take a two-hour scenic drive south to Awakino and on to New Plymouth, or return north to Te Kuiti and Hamilton.
