2. Māori have been involved in tourism in New Zealand for more than 100 years, but the last few years have seen a renaissance in the types of Māori tourism products on offer.

From traditional marae and hangi experiences, to more contemporary Māori arts tours or eco-tourism products that integrate Māori beliefs and stories, Māori continue to offer unique, authentic tourism experiences that also help keep their culture alive and improve New Zealand's offering as a tourism destination Maori Tourism
