Tours de Waitomo Glowworm Caves

First, we walked through the cave, admiring the beautiful natural art created by the stalactites. Then, we boarded a boat and continued deeper into the cave. In the silent cave, the occasional sound of dripping water echoed, and looking up at the ceiling where the glowworms' lights flickered, I was enveloped in a strange sensation, as if I were in another world. The cave tour itself lasted just under an hour. Although it was a long 5-hour round trip from Auckland, I'm glad I went. On the way there, we stopped at a coffee shop for a light meal. Photography is prohibited inside the cave, so at the entrance, they took a blue-screen photo of us, and after the tour, we could purchase data or prints that combined our photo with images from inside the cave.

El recorregut va estar ben organitzat, va ser informatiu i agradable de principi a fi. Va ser fascinant aprendre sobre la història i els detalls entre bastidors del set. El paisatge era impressionant i hi va haver moltes oportunitats per fer fotos memorables. La còmoda furgoneta de luxe va fer que el viatge fos relaxant i agradable, permetent-nos seure i gaudir del bell paisatge durant el trajecte.

The guide was very humorous and witty, and their photography skills were also quite good. I initially thought it would be tiring, but it wasn't at all. Inside, you can see not only fireflies but also many stalactites. I highly recommend checking it out. We drove ourselves there, and the location wasn't hard to find.

I really enjoyed my visit, especially our tour guide, Dave from Cheeky Travel. He made the tour so much fun and made sure to explain everything we were seeing along the way. His knowledge and enthusiasm made the experience even more enjoyable. Rotorua is truly a must-visit destination—I absolutely loved my time here and can't wait to come back!

The Greatsites bus driver/guide, Anthony, was hospitable, knowledgeable, accommodating,very kind and entertaining;he goes the extra mile;helped us bring our souvenirs back to the bus before the Hobbit tour started because we did not have time to go. We made another toilet break on the way back to Auckland,which was helpful. Anthony always had a smile on his face;made sure we were all safe, and looked after each other.Anthony is quite an asset to have. Thank you for the pleasant day Anthony. WAITOMO caves:the tour guide was very knowledgeable funny and helpful friendly.We felt the history of the place. It was like being in the movie Avatar with the cute glow worms shining their natural glow around us. HOBITTON: The set is wonderfully made. This was my wife’s anniversary present because I love LOTR so so much. The feeling was surreal. The tour guide helpful and knowledgeable. I wish we had more time overall. but we did have a large group also. Highly recommended tour.

Nice tour guide. I wrongly booked the destination to Rotorua, so I was so panicked when I noticed this. By keeping calling the CS, luckily they answered and let me change to round-trip back to Auckland at 7am on the trip day. Thanksful for that! Enjoyed a lot in the trip. The nature of NZ is so amazing!

Vaig gaudir molt del viatge. Vaig veure els ocells kiwi, i eren molt bufons. Malauradament, no se'ls poden fer fotos perquè els flaixos de les càmeres i les llums brillants poden danyar els seus ulls sensibles. Però els ocells kiwi eren molt bufons! A més d'això, la meva part preferida del viatge va ser anar a Blue Spring. Era tan bonic i semblava irreal. A més, el nostre guia turístic va ser molt amable i ens va explicar moltes coses interessants sobre Nova Zelanda i Auckland.

La nostra experiència amb Hobbiton, les coves de Waitomo i Flexi Tours va ser absolutament increïble! Hobbiton realment va ser com endinsar-se a la Terra Mitjana, amb paisatges impressionants i una atenció al detall increïble. Les cuques de llum a les coves de Waitomo eren impressionants, i el nostre guia, Cuppa Tea, va ser informatiu, entretingut i fins i tot ens va obsequiar amb una bonica cançó. Bunty de Flexi Tours va fer el nostre viatge encara més agradable amb la seva personalitat amable, les seves fascinants observacions sobre Nova Zelanda i una parada addicional en un bonic pont penjant. El nostre grup de quatre es va sentir segur, ben atès i va tenir un viatge inoblidable. Recomanem molt aquestes experiències a qualsevol que visiti Nova Zelanda! 🇦🇺

The scenery in Hobbiton was great. Special thanks to our guide, Andrew, who did an amazing job. As for the glow worm caves, it was a short tour. The silent boat ride through the dark however make it seems almost otherworldly
