Māori Culture

Māori are the indigenous people of New Zealand, who arrived more than 1,000 years ago from their mythical Polynesian homeland of Hawaiki. Today Māori make up 14% of New Zealand’s population and their history, language and traditions are central to the country’s identity.

As a visitor to New Zealand, you can experience Māori culture by visiting a marae (tribal meeting grounds) with an organised tour, watching a carving or weaving demonstration or learning about fascinating myths and legends from passionate Māori guides.
