fireflies !!

This is the first time in my life that I saw so many fireflies ! There are countless stalactites! The road is far away and there are many farms. Why are there so many farms?

Excellent!!

We absolutely enjoyed our trip to Waitomo. Karthik was on time with a very comfortable van to take us to Waitomo caves. Offered each one of us a bag full of snacks and water. Karthik was very knowledgable and explained the sights we passed by, but also knew when to talk and when to give breaks. We absolutely loved the caves and the whole experience! I would def recommend ExperienceKart!!
