The Caves are world renowned for its huge population of glowworms which illuminate the interiors. There is plenty to discover including the free walking tracks and the scenic reserves with gushing rivers and the lush green hills. This is transport only, entry fee not included

It’s a long drive from...
Published on Feb, 2025
It’s a long drive from Auckland but well worth it and we are glad we did it. The caves are fascinating and the glow worms amazing. Our driver was on time and friendly.
Awesome experience!
Published on Jan, 2025
It was a great experience! Naveen was our private driver and he made our experience extra special because we originally had planned on booking an excursion that included a The Hobitton Movie Set. He knew how disappointed we were that the tickets for the Hobbiton sold out. He called the place just to see if there was a cancelation and by shear luck they happened to have two tickets! We gave him our credit cards and he purchased the tickets for us. We throughly enjoyed both The gloworm cave and Hobitton Movie Set! Our excursion was only suppose to be for 4 hours but he went out of his way and brought us to both excursions! He is an excellent private driver and deserves so much credit! Thank you Naveen for making our trip so memorable!
