Hells Gate Geothermal Reserve & Mud Spa
Went well and very informative
Hells Gate was a really interesting place to visit, exploring the different geysers etc. The mud baths however were a bit of a factory experience. A lot of people and the mud seemed dirty (is that possible lol) from all the people before. Didn’t seem very hygienic at all.
The walk around the geothermal site was interesting and an eye opener, however whilst we had high expectation on the mud bath part, we all came out rather disappointed. Honestly getting into the mud is just all hype with no real benefits. Also it was pretty shocking that for such an activity that they are promoting, you only provide VERY basic showers without shampoo, but more importantly not even a towel was provided despite the high entrance fee (you will have to pay extra to rent). Front desk service was rather unfriendly and monotonous - perhaps it was the end of the day but it made me feel like we were just added burdens to another day's of work. But the rest of the staff inside were very friendly and helpful, so that was a reprieve,
