β β β β β Before going, we were very curious about how it goes eruption once a day. After visit, we knew the truth lol.
The eruption of water could reach about 7-10 meters high. Cool
If you haven't seen before, you can have a try. Not a bad experience.

β β β β β Had a great day at this place starting with the lady Knox geyser show. It is made to erupt by the park ranger putting a bar of eco soap into the hole. So the show is at a fixed time if 10:15. Sometimes it gives a good eruption and sometimes not so good. We had to go buy tickets at the main centre and go back to the geyser. So give yourself 30 minutes to do that. The rest of the park is fantastic.

β β β β β Arrived early to check out the Geyser which is a timed eruption at 10:15am every day by a park guide adding biodegradable soap into the geyser cone which takes 5-10min after to produce the eruption. Cost is excessive at $32 odd NZD for what it is? Cost also allows access to geothermal & mud pools. The stench of the sulphur smell at some of the geothermal pool to me is overwhelming & can be sickening.

β β β β β It was a lovely winters day with clear blue skies. I was surprised to find out the geyser was given a little boost to help it erupt but it makes perfect sense when the tour guide explains the well designed process. Worth a visit

β β β β β Funny presentation before the eruption. The eruption itself was initiated artificially, but otherwise you would have to wait up to 72 hours so in that way you can see it every 24 hours. There are many opportunities to sit although I would recommend to go to the front as everybody stands on the benches when the geyser is errupting so you don't see much.

β β β β β Not sure how this goes off around 10.15am every day, I have a feeling it is what is added to the geyser by the person conducting the talk about the history of the geyser. I would get their early as around a 200m walk from the car park and traffic is crawling from 10 to get a park, purchasing tickets online the best idea.

β β β β β Wasn't exactly the best. The explosion lasted for at max. 45 seconds and didn't reach the expected 15 metres. The geyser was also started with a quick speech for safety and then just soap being added to make the anti-climatic start. Wasn't worth the time especially not exploding on time.

β β β β β Firstly - be warned - it's a geyser. So, some days, it can be large. The day we were there, it didn't do too much. At least, the operators can put on something at a set time, which is what people want.
It is essential to arrange your tickets online or get there well ahead of the start time (check the site). If you don't get them online, you need to go to the visitor centre, park, get the tickets, and then drive back to the geyser to park again. As you would expect, just before the geyer is peak time. We had a few people who were effectively turned away (for their own good) as they were going to be too late.
All that said, the staff are as prepared as they can be, with a pop-up ticket stall and they get you moving pretty quickly. They do a good job.
Make sure you see the rest of the thermal wonderland.
