Things to do in Waitomo

My family and I love the tour in overall. our tour guide, she was so professional and friendly (8:10 am 7/12). we are blessed with the good nice weather. i recommend to go in the morning, as it’s not that hot during summer.

Truly magical - one of the best experiences in New Zealand. The surroundings are surreal; it feels like another world. The tour includes behind-the-scenes insights and stories that will make your journey even more amazing.

It was magical Hobbiton Movie Set and the Glow Worm Caves. Great day tour! Great lunch too. Kudos to our guide Richard even though his new, He tried his best to make it memorable for us. Highly Recommended tour with Cheeky Kiwi Tours.

I highly recommend this tour! It was incredibly comfortable, perfectly organized, and our guide, Anthony, was absolutely fantastic! Friendly, knowledgeable, and engaging. The entire experience was educational, enjoyable, and truly satisfying from start to finish.

Hanoz was our guide. He made the 8 in the group introduced ourselves. I enjoyed the caves mostly. My son loves the geysers. Anyway, I love that they were generous with their bottled drinking water and snacks. Their transport allows you to charge your phones. The ostrich feeding experience was fun.

This tour was incredibly well organised and the small group size made the experience feel personal and relaxed. Hobbiton was absolutely magical — beautifully maintained and even better in person. Waitomo Glowworm Caves were breathtaking and unlike anything I’ve seen before. Our guide was friendly, knowledgeable, and shared great insights throughout the day. Transport was comfortable and everything ran smoothly. Highly recommend this tour for anyone wanting a memorable and stress-free experience!

We had an amazing time yesterday at the Hobbiton Movie Set and the glow worm caves. Even you have not watched the movie, as most of those who joined the tour, you'll still have a good time. Hobbiton is so beautiful. We had a good time with our driver Raymond from Auckland and Beyond Tours. He shared a lot of information about NZ. The tour was worth it.

Highly recommend experiencing this small group tour of 5 to a maximum of 8 people! Our guide was Ash, an experienced guide who was very friendly, humorous, and helpful. He led us through the caves, explaining the cave structure, observing the creatures in the stream, crouching through crevices, and even tasting spring water along the way. Most importantly, we were able to take pictures of the area and even the glowworms (without flash, of course). The glowworm "starry sky" was also impressive because once our eyes adjusted to the darkness, the glowworms looked like thousands of stars on the cave ceiling, making us feel like we were on a wonderful cave adventure.

Value for money if you select from their menu of activities, which covers a lot.
