Top Cat Charters provides you with the opportunity to cruise in style out to the iconic Maori Rock Carvings on Lake Taupo. You will get to experience these magnificent carvings with other like minded enthusiasts. As you cruise out your group/ family will get to enjoy your own Maori Rock Carvings Cruise with a dedicated Skipper and crew.

Top Cat Charters provides the perfect viewing platform, either from the back deck or from the top deck to enjoy the Rock Carving Ngatoroirangi, which towers 14meters above Lake Taupō.
As we sit in front of the magnificent carvings you’ll learn about;

• The history about the Carvings.
• The meaning behind the surrounding carvings depicting the tupuna (ancestors) and kaitiaki (guardians).
• You will also learn about the talented artists behind the carvings.

After spending some time at the Maori Rock Carvings your Maori Rock Carvings Cruise will gently cruise Lake Shoreline back towards the Lake Taupo Township.

Our Maori Rock Carvings Cruise will take approx. 120 mins as you gently cruise Lake Taupo.
