The Waitomo Experience: Okohua Glowworm Cave Tour

Experience Waitomo’s premium small group glowworm cave adventure. Just 6 guests explore an exclusive private cave, floating beneath thousands of glowworms, and finish with a relaxing cedar hot tub

Go underground to experience one of New Zealand’s distinctive cave environments, where rock formations, underground waterways and glowworms can create a memorable contrast to above-ground sightseeing.

What to expect

The exact style ranges from easy guided walks and boat sections to more adventurous caving or black-water rafting. Lighting is often low and surfaces may be damp, so guides manage the route and help explain both the geology and the glowworm habitat.

Why consider this experience

• Atmospheric underground scenery
