Hawke's Bay Māori History Tour

Step into the heart of Te Matau-a-Māui (Hawke's Bay) on an authentic cultural journey through the stories, landscapes, and living traditions of Ngāti Kahungunu. As you travel through Napier, Hastings, and Havelock North, your Māori guide will bring the region to life through captivating storytelling, connecting each place to the people, legends, and history that have shaped it for generations. Journey to culturally significant sites including Ōtātara Pā, Ngā Pou o Heretaunga, and Te Mata Peak, and hear the story of the Battle of Ōmarunui and the enduring legend of Pania of the Reef. Each stop offers a deeper connection to the history, whakapapa, and culture woven into the landscape. More than a sightseeing tour, this is a meaningful opportunity to experience Māori culture through authentic storytelling, spectacular scenery, and a deeper understanding of the enduring relationship between our people and whenua (land).
