Māori are the tangata whenua, the indigenous people, of New Zealand. They arrived more than 1000 years ago from their mythical Polynesian homeland of Hawaiki. Today Māori make up 14% of the population and their history, language and traditions are central to New Zealand’s identity.
The best place to observe Māori culture is on a marae (tribal meeting grounds). In Northland, Auckland, Rotorua and Canterbury, organised tours provide a traditional Māori welcome onto a marae, where you’ll hear Māori speeches and singing, see carved meeting houses, meet the local people (you’ll greet them with the traditional pressing of noses) and enjoy a hāngī feast cooked in earth ovens.
New Zealand is an all year round destination however arguably the best times to travel is usually between November and March. January and February are the warmest months, and July is the coldest month of the year.
