Photography: Personalised photos are provided to clients via internet at no extra charge. No client photography equipment is permitted. Please inquire if you require a private photography tour.
Fitness Test: If the guide on the day has any doubt about a client’s fitness they may ask them to prove it by completing a fitness test. One quick and simple test we may use is “to step up and down a 20 cm (8 inches) step not less than 45 times in 60 seconds”. We strongly recommend clients complete this test before they book their activity and before they travel to Waitomo. Clients may also be requested to submit to breath-testing for alcohol or other drugs. Where appropriate, guides may at their sole discretion cancel a departure or remove an unsuitable client from a departing trip for any safety-related reason.

Super expérience !
Une aventure inoubliable, la guide, très gentille, nous a pris en charge par petit groupe. L'exploration de la cave est fascinante, on se faufile entre les roches, découvre les glowworms, on se laisse guider, une petite dose d'adrénaline par moment. Bref, un moment inoubliable, je recommande vivement !

Worth the shot - worth the price
Luke and Juri were awesome guides. My friend and I had a very cool time visiting thecave. Glow worms, tubbing, singing, jumping, swimming... all fun. Be aware this gets really chilly inside the cave. Big socks are sold beforehand at the office. Big thanks to Luke and Juri for an amazing experience!

Super activité
Nous avons passé un moment incroyable dans les eaux froides de la grotte avec notre guide Amy. C'est une expérience unique de spéléo, différente de ce que l'on voit d'habitude. En combinaison et en bottes, on a parcouru la grotte à sec et dans l'eau. Parfois dans une bouée, lumière éteinte pour admirer les glow worms au plafond. Je recommande +++
