The Coming Feast of Tabernacles
Taupo, New Zealand
Taupo is a town on the shore of Lake Taupo in the centre of New Zealand‘s North Island. Feastgoers will generally fly into Auckland, from where it is just a three-to four-hour scenic drive over good roads. Taupo is also served by commuter air services. Services will be held at the Taupo Cosmopolitan Club, Taniwha Street in central Taupo.
Taupo is situated in an area of great natural beauty. There are rivers and lakes, forests, mountains, thermal areas and active volcanoes, all within reach over good roads. There are many fine restaurants and other opportunities to fellowship. Organized activities will include trout fishing for children, mini-golf, a visit to a lion park and a games evening.
There is available in Taupo a wide range of accommodations for all needs and budgets. Those who want to rent a luxury apartment or stay in a B&B, motel, hotel or even camp in a camping ground are all catered for. The accommodation is of a high standard and most Feastgoers will readily find a good, comfortable motel for two adults in the price range of US$45-70 per night. No Feastgoer needs to be more than five minutes drive from services and there are many motels within walking distance.
