Super !
Ce voyage culturel nous a enchanté. Nous avons été super bien accueillis et en avons pris plein les yeux. Seul petit bémol, en anglais uniquement. Pas d'audio transcription, je pense aux personnes qui ne comprennent pas bien l'anglais c'est assez difficile. Mais le voyage vaut le détour

Belle prestation maorie
Très bonne introduction à la culture maorie et à leur mode de vie. La visite du village et les différents ateliers en petits groupes étaient très intéressants et participatifs. L’équipe du village et tout le personnel a fait le maximum ( comme si c’était la première fois) pour nous rendre l’expérience agréable. En revanche le nombre de participants était trop important (150?, 200? Personnes). Cela nuit à la convivialité et rend le diner impersonnel.
