New Plymouth Tours

Although Taranaki may be a little off the beaten track, its towns and villages are vibrant and appealing. The main centre of the region, New Plymouth, is an attractive smaller city on the west coast that’s well worth visiting.
Enjoying a beautiful coastal setting, with views to Mount Taranaki, and brimming with great eateries, cafés, gardens, shops and cultural attractions, New Plymouth is a cosmopolitan small city.
On the waterfront is the museum, Puke Ariki, and just around the corner is the acclaimed Govett-Brewster Art Gallery. The TSB Bowl of Brooklands hosts numerous high-profile performers from New Zealand and around the world in its atmospheric outdoor amphitheatre during world-class events such as WOMAD.
