    Overall, this really exceeded my expectations. I found the glowworms to be interesting, but the whole experience from the walk through the (very wet) caves and the sensory depravation boat ride in the dark, all really made this value for money. I recommend.

    The glow worm caves themselves are absolutely stunning, one of the coolest things I've ever seen. The forest around the caves is also beautiful. Minus one star for the guides being very scripted/bored and the "nature walk" being a five metre path to a pavilion with some posters then we had to leave after about two minutes.

    We went in August so the worms were not at peak activity, however this was still one of the highlights of the trip. Tour guides were great, explaining what the glow worms were and fun facts about the caves. No pictures allowed (your phone wouldn't be able to anyways in that dark) but I almost preferred it. It was a surreal experience floating in a little boat in the pitch black, the only sound was the water gushing through the caves. As your eyes adjusted more and more of these little blue dots appeared. It felt like you were floating in the void of space. I loved it. If I return to New Zealand I will definitely be returning.

    Amazing trip! The boat across was very scenic and the guide had great facts about what you were looking at. Once we arrived, we were given a very informative talk about the glow worms. Our guide Heath was fantastic taking us through the cave, with lots of fun facts and jokes along the way while seeing an amazing underground formation. The glow worms themselves were absolutely beautiful. A trip myself, and my family will treasure forever. Thanks RealNZ!!
