My wife and I visited NZ for our honeymoon 40 years ago and we remember visiting the Caves then. The main entrance is new but the caves entrance and the marvelous cave formations remain the glorious same. The glow worms area seems smaller somehow, but that could be just memory. The cave tour and the boat ride are well worth... More

This tour would have been better if our guide had have been interested in what she was doing. She really didn't want to be there.

It would be very good, however, for families or those with mild disabilities, as there are a lot of stairs. There were tons of glowworms and it was cool to be in the boat in... More

We looked at the pictures online and decided to try this attraction in person. It is fabulous, although the life style of the glowworm is extremely undesireable. We thought it one of the best attractions in New Zealand.
