My Favourite of the cave tours in Waitomo.A lot of small stalagtites to see and there were also Cave Weta at the entrance.There is also a great walk through the bushland around this cave and you can really get go appreciate the land here.

Liked the tour a lot and the glowworms were amazing. Though I have to say that I already saw stalagmites ans stalagtites and that was kinda boring for me. But I don't regret the tour. When you are at Waitomo in winter or early spring I would recommend this tour cause the rafting is too cold (friends of mine told me so)

This cave is much more peaceful and beautiful than Waitomo and Ruakuri caves thanks to no flowing River (so no glowworms) and different coloured limestone. There are less tourists in this cave too, only 3 couples on my tour. The tour guide Dave was really interesting and had a really kind nature about him. Highly recommend doing all 3 caves, they all have something to offer.

Nice location, great history BUT people at information center were rude! Asked them if walls are open (Since most of Auckland , Rotorua and northland walks are closed) they pretty much sneered and laughed at us! Unbelievable!

A very intriguing underground cave showcasing the typical Waitomo cave limestone formations. The walkway is well lit and clicking pictures is allowed inside. Some stalactites and stalagmites are very large. It is always advised by the accompanying guides not to touch those formations. Some broken pieces are still kept by the staff to handover to the tourists to allow them to get a feel of what it is like. A very interesting and highly recommended experience.

Quite a short tour. My 2nd favourite cave of the 3 cave tour. Had a great tour guide who actually grew up in the caves.

The cave is smallest cave compare to other two caves but the stalegmites and stalegatites are the biggest out of all three. The walk to the cave is beautiful and it takes about 45 minutes for the entire tour.
