Waitomo Glowworm Caves ture

Først går vi gennem hulen og udforsker den. Den naturlige kunst skabt af stalaktitterne er smuk. Derefter sejler vi i en båd gennem hulen. I den stille hule genlød lyden af vanddråber af og til, og da jeg kiggede op på loftet, hvor glødeormenes lys flimrede, følte jeg en mærkelig fornemmelse af at være i en anden verden. Selve huleudflugten varede knap en time. Selvom det er en lang tur på fem timer tur-retur fra Auckland, var det det hele værd. På vejen dertil stoppede vi ved en kaffebar og fik en let anretning. Da fotografering er forbudt inde i hulen, kan man ved indgangen få taget et billede foran en blå baggrund, og efter turen kan man købe data eller print, hvor billedet er sammensat med billeder fra hulen.

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.

Turen var velorganiseret, informativ og fornøjelig fra start til slut. Det var fascinerende at lære om historien og detaljerne bag kulisserne på settet. Landskabet var fantastisk, og der var masser af muligheder for at tage mindeværdige billeder. Den komfortable luksusvan gjorde rejsen afslappende og behagelig, så vi kunne læne os tilbage og nyde det smukke landskab undervejs.

Meget dejlig tur, der gav os rigelig tid til at udforske, og vi ankom endda tidligt tilbage i Auckland. Vores chauffør og guide gjorde turen så meget mere fornøjelig og informerede os om interessante indsigter undervejs, vil komme tilbage igen med familien!

I really enjoyed the trip. I saw the kiwi birds, and they were very cute. Unfortunately, you can’t take photos of them because camera flashes and bright lights can damage their sensitive eyes. But the kiwi birds were very cute! Besides that, my favourite part of the trip was going to Blue Spring. It was so beautiful and looked unreal. In addition, our tour guide was very friendly and told us a lot of interesting things about New Zealand and Auckland.

Our Hobbiton, Waitomo Caves, and Flexi Tours experience was absolutely amazing! Hobbiton truly felt like stepping into Middle-earth, with stunning scenery and incredible attention to detail. The glowworms in the Waitomo Caves were breathtaking, and our guide, Cuppa Tea, was informative, entertaining, and even treated us to a beautiful song. Bunty from Flexi Tours made our journey even more enjoyable with his friendly personality, fascinating insights about New Zealand, and a bonus stop at a beautiful hanging bridge. Our group of four felt safe, well looked after, and had an unforgettable trip. Highly recommend these experiences to anyone visiting New Zealand! 🇦🇺

it was great! the trip was very well organised and the guide was superb!

Brad var en fantastisk guide. Jeg får nemt ondt i maven og bliver køresyg, men der var regelmæssige toiletpauser, og kørslen var behagelig uden pludselige opbremsninger. Selvfølgelig var udsigten, turen til Hobbiton og glødeormsturen alle fantastiske. Selvom jeg ikke er god til engelsk, var det en lille gruppe, så alle var venlige, og jeg havde det rigtig sjovt.

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!
