WAITOMO - Twin Caves Discovery - Private Day Tour from Auckland
Overview
The Waitomo Twin Caves Discovery combines two iconic caves: the Glowworm Cave and Ruakuri Cave.
Glowworm Cave: Famous for its glowworms that light up the cave ceiling, this tour includes a guided walk through limestone formations and a silent boat ride under thousands of glowworms. Highlights include the Cathedral, known for its acoustics, and the mesmerizing glowworm grotto.
Ruakuri Cave: This cave offers a more adventurous experience, featuring intricate limestone formations, underground rivers, and close-up views of glowworms. Highlights include the spiral entrance, stunning stalactites and stalagmites, and glowworms visible from walkways.
