Fabulous ride
It was the best birthday gift for my husband. We had this experience for the first time. Our guide was very helpful. I was 35 weeks pregnant. He made sure, I had the safest Kayak and gears. He gave us so much of information on the glow worms. He rowed with my 10-year-old son and my son enjoyed a lot. We received an email explaining every step to be done and he was readily available on phone to solve our queries. Overall an awesome experience.

An amazing adventure
We had seen glow worms before but we hadn't kayaked at night previously so this was a huge thrill. No experience necessary but it will help if you know how to paddle.

Fantastic Experience -- Highly recommend
Kayaking to see the glowworms ended up being one of my favorite experiences during out time in New Zealand. It was such a fun and unique was of seeing the glowworms. I loved the small group size. it felt more personal and intimate than the large tourism glowworm caves. When we went, we were the only ones on the water. Our guide was fantastic and really helped to make sure we had a great time.
