Great early morning visit. Arrived at opening with the kids and had the place entirely to ourselves for most of it. Didn't see a soul until 3/4's of the way through. Truly magical place with all the steam, mud and views. Great time for the kids to have total freedom withing the paths and walkways.

Nice short walk between steaming vents. Great educational experience both for kids and grown ups. Second time visit was as good as the first.

What an out of world experience! Reasonable entry fees, good location and lovely staff. I was wondering if they could start a guided tour? Not sure if they already have one. Good learning for kids and adults too. Spend an hour or two. Enjoy your proximity to the middle earth

Amazing and breathtaking.The pathway is a wooden plank -way, very sturdy and safe. Everything gets explained and the entrance fee (8) is super cheap for this amazing experience. The souvenir shop is very adorable too and they have those fun coin-machines, too! So make sure you bring a 2 coin to remember your visit - although what you see there is already memorable!

Closing at 3 PM really? Why does a natural geothermal walk need opening hours? And the entry fee is also ridiculous. I have no doubt that the views there are stunning, but there is plenty of other geothermal spots on this planet we can visit for free. Act responsibly on these magnificent natural places please.

Great walk with heaps of geothermal activity, definitely worth the small entry fee. Highly recommend for everyone, especially those with with 5-12 year old kids as the steam etc is really fascinating. Wear your walking shoes and bring a water bottle!

Superb experience. Though I been to White island but these experience was different I meant the land with multiple craters of hot water. Wherever you go you will find hot steam coming out and the noise of boiling water.
