Firstly, The show was spectacular and I would highly reccomend it. Great performance and excellent actors. I must also unfortunatley comment on my experience with the headout app, which was abyssmal. Nowhere in the app or booking did it state that that the provided 'tickets' with QR codes and seat numbers were not the actual tickets for the show! I was turned away at the stage door and had to rush across the theatre to the box office and back to redeem the paper tickets they actually use at the stage doors. Very stressful and dissapointing.

Bubba was an informative, funny host who performed a waiata in the cathedral part of the caves for us and provided heaps of interesting facts about glow worms. We really enjoyed our tour.

Breathtaking limestone foundations and glow worm colonies. Cup-of-tea (tour guide) was very knowledgeable and charismatic which made the experience even better.
