Just a quarter of an hour from Rydges Rotorua, yet another world away, Rotorua Heritage Farm is a sensory experience for every generation.

Stemming from a rich legacy that was first ignited in the early 1930s, the historical site will transport you back in time with a traditional farm tour. It’s a glimpse into the way things used to be done, which will highlight the influence of the agriculture industry on the local economy and community. While learning how farms have contributed to the lives of Rotoruians, you can also feed and pat the friendly animals.

Before indulging in the homemade treats and seasonally-inspired eats available at Cafe 171, be sure to make a stop at the 3D Trick Art. As the first of its kind in the country, this immersive exhibit is a place to touch and interact with 3D artworks and enjoy mind-bending fun with the entire family. As a Rydges Rotorua guest, you’ll be welcomed with open arms and kids will receive free entry.
