Waitamo caves were my first experience with glow worms and they did not disappoint. Very friendly staff at every point from start to beginning. The two tour guides were awesome and knowledgeable and a very funny duo (one was learning the job, good luck Lucas). Highly recommend.

If you are looking for a more personal tour, away from the crowds, this will be for you. We always look to use smaller operators and this family business ticked all the boxes for us. From the start, getting kitted up in our Thermal finery. To the walk though the family property to the caves. Ash was a gentleman, lots of funny stories and always making sure you were safe. The caves were stunning and you were definitely on a road less traveled. The Glow Worms were amazing and you could spend hours looking at what shapes the water had created in the rocks and calcium deposits. Thank you Ash & Michelle and good luck finding the 7 undiscovered caves in the area..

The Ruakuri Cave tour was an stunning experience! From the ticket booking to the tour -- well planned and customer centric. The guide was well explained and friendly. Recommended...

The cave was simply amazing. Ticketing was easy. It was much easier to find with morning meeting location when we had an address and the name of the hotel rather than the GPS coordinates that were initially provided.
