Abstract:The author discusses notions of indigenous tourism and the role of cultural and spatial difference in European conceptualizations of the exotic other. He argues that although of spatial distance between Maori and tourists means that European New Zealanders are not drawn to Maori culture as an attraction in the manner that those from Europe and North America are. The paper discusses "kiwi culture" and familiarity as determinants of tourist demand.
