"The Waitomo Experience was my first time adventuring underground into a cave, I was left speechless. There was excitement from start to finish that exceeded all my expectations. From floating down the river admiring the picturesque environment, to being surrounded by thousands of glowworms I couldn't get enough.

Vaughan our guide was not only friendly but also highly skilled, offering knowledge and great customer service.Would highly recommend."

"What an incredible day out in Waitomo! This caving tour was the perfect mix of adventure, fun, and personal touches. The small group size made the whole experience feel really special. No crowds, no rush, just fully immersed in the moment.

Our guides were legends! warm, knowledgeable, and full of great stories. We climbed, splashed through water, explored hidden corners of the cave, and learned heaps along the way. The gear was in great condition, clean and comfy, and the cherry on top was a relaxing soak in the hot tub afterwards.

If you’re looking for a unique, well-run experience that goes beyond the usual tourist trail - this is it."

"The experience was amazing. Absolutely love it! The guide was super caring, professional and knowledgeable. He knew everything about the cave and the glowworms. The limestone formations in the cave were stunning. It felt like walking into another world and it felt so unreal. My favourite part was sitting on the tube and floating beneath the galaxy of glowworm. It was like stargazing. Even it was winter time, the wetsuit provided was warm enough. And they were so considering that we had a little break during the adventure and hot drink was served. I enjoyed the hot shower and cedar hot tub at the end as well. Best adventure ever! Highly recommend!"

"Absolutely amazing experience! Our guide, Vaughan, was fantastic—he took the time to explain the rock formations, the glowworms, and shared some really interesting facts along the way. It never felt rushed, and we got to fully take in the incredible beauty of the cave. Some sections involved crawling through tight spaces, which made it even more exciting, but there were also easier routes for those who weren’t feeling as adventurous. The main site is in a stunning location with breathtaking views, and the hot tub at the end was the perfect way to relax and enjoy the view. Would highly recommend!"

"One of the best experiences I have done in NZ. They are only new and I was lucky enough to be one of the first! Great guides, amazing caves, the glowworms were 5 star alone and even hot tubs!! A absolute must do in Waitomo!!"

"Mind blowing trip, glow worms are spectacular. Hot tubs after are also amazing. All set on a beautiful farm. Highly recommend."

"We absolutely loved our tour! I've been caving before, but this experience felt much more personal and engaging. Our guide Vaughan provided great insights into the formations, and we had the freedom to explore at our own pace. The tour was well-suited for different caving abilities, making it enjoyable for everyone. Must do!"
