The tour was amazing!! We have been to some caves before, but this was something entirely different. The caves were not touristy at all so we could experience the beauty of the caves and the nature around it in the best way possible! Ash was an absolutely great guide and made our tour even more perfect. If you are looking for a small adventure with beautiful views, this is definitely the place to do it!

This is not a touristic place, this is the real thing!! It's an incredible adventure. Be prepared for the time of your life !! The crew was also super kind, prepared and professional, in a way we felt completely safe and confident, yet with loads of room for adrenaline, awe and pure joy. Not to be missed !!

The tour is considerably more expensive than the classic "Gloworm Cave Tour" in Waitomo. However, it is worth every penny. The small group size and the experienced tour guide Ash make this couple of hours unforgettable. From logistics, safety, friendlyness, empathy, professinal photos, all adds up to a perfect package. And for those who struggle a bit in dark confined spaces, Ash literally walks and talks you through so that every step is a safe one. Highly recommended!

    Ash war ein super Guide, witzig,informativ und hilfreich. Es war schön , dass es eine kleine Gruppe war. Die Höhle, der Gang durch den Fluss und die glowworms waren beeindruckend.

    Such a good day out! Nice small group, very friendly welcoming hosts, plenty of time in the caves. This was such an adventure climbing over the rocks and seeing the whole structure even before the glow worms.
  • Skip the crowds and venture into a hidden cave system with an expert guide. This exclusive adventure offers private access, hands-on exploration, and the chance to see glowworms in their most natural setting.

    • Underground trek: Spend around 2.5 hours exploring twisting limestone passages, underground streams, and chambers lit by thousands of glowworms in their natural habitat.

    • Hands-on exploration: Wade through cool waters, climb over boulders, and discover intricate stalactites and stalagmites up close.

    • Stories & science: Hear fascinating Māori legends tied to the caves and learn about the geology that shaped these formations over millions of years.
