Thanks very much Dahlia :)

Absolutely amazing!!!
This was an experience of a lifetime. Our guide Amy, was knowledgeable and friendly. All of the gear was provided, which was definitely a bonus because it was a messy activity. Descending 100 m was an experience I will never forget. Be aware that the terrain is extremely uneven and this tour definitely requires a level of fitness and balance. The ladder climb at the end to get out had over a hundred rungs! We were the only people in the cave and the only people on the tour, so it was extremely tranquil and uncrowded. Each guide takes four people at a time. We definitely saw glow worms, and they were magical. I could not recommend this experience more.

Hi Natalie! Thanks so much for your wonderful review :) Yep - these are truly wild places and still in their natural state - hence the uneven nature of the going. ...and the ladder does indeed have 113 rungs - most people haven't climbed something like that lately ! You will have seen that these boutique and special trips are not suitable for everyone. But you took on the challenge and did it - well done. Thanks for visiting - we're so glad you could check out our special corner of Godzone :)

Unforgettable experience
This was a completely different way to experience our land. Descending 100 metres underground into an untouched world, you can truly see, smell and feel the beauty of nature. I was the only guest, and my guide was incredibly knowledgeable, helpful and generous in sharing his stories. He also took amazing photos—almost like a professional photographer! Four hours passed so quickly, and I only wished I had booked the full-day tour! I’ll definitely be back to discover more hidden secrets with this wonderful team. 🌿✨

Hey Lily :) Thank you so much for your generous review - which is much appreciated ! You are the perfect person to appreciate this special place. We'll definitely look forward to your next visit to do THE BIG LOST WORLD ALL DAY EPIC !

Better quality images.
Picture quality is very poor. Great guides though.
From Waitomo Adventures - Lost World Tour - 4 hrs
Hi Carlos Our practice is to provide photos to our much valued customers free of charge. Wild caves are notoriously difficult to get good photos in, so we tend to take more than one shot of the same thing. What's then meant to happen is that we delete the dud ones and send you the good ones. The problem here was simply that the dud photos weren't deleted before the file was sent to you. All the good photos are still there however and some of them seem pretty good to us. We apologise for any confusion and for not editing the dud photos out. Regards Waitomo Adventures

Mild accessible adventure
View is incredible. 100 metre abseil is in a fantastic spot. Unfortunately feels overly nannied: you are tied to 3 other people as you abseil bumping into each other. The walk at the bottom, again amazing natural wonder, but very slow pace of nannied walk and clip in clip on flat ground. Could be done in a lot less time and more autonomy.

cool caves
Great experience, felt very safe throughout. Awesome guides, knowledgeable about the caves, glowworms, and the eel. Wasn't physically exerting apart from the ladder near the end. Plenty of breaks for photos, observing, and learning about the cave. They take great photos too! I went in the morning where there were glorious light rays shining into the misty cave, would recommend.
