- kartikmexico0 aportesExcelente!!!Magnífico tour privado de las cuevas de Waitomo. El guía fue magnífico y muy conocedor. A diferencia de otros tours, en este no solo puedes sino que te piden que lleves tu cámara y trípode. Las fotos salieron muy bien y la atención magnífica.Escrita el 23 de septiembre de 2019
- Maect800 aportesInmejorableUna de las mejores experiencias en Nueva Zelanda y en cualquier lugar del mundo. Te adentras en una cueva caminando por un río para, después de andar por distintos caminos estrechos e incluso arrastrarte en algún momento, contemplar unos de los mejores espectáculos que se pueden soñar: miles de luciérnagas brillando en la oscuridad de la cueva. Los grupos son muy reducidos y la organización y el guía fueron de 10. Es cierto que hay una cierta exigencia física, pero es apto para cualquiera con una forma física aceptable y, precisamente, la sensación de aventura le da un plus a la experiencia.Escrita el 1 de septiembre de 2019

Wonderful. Private cave tour, 1 guide + 6 participants. Not suitable for those suffering from claustrophobia, the tour is a continuous climbing over stones, boulders and holes. It is still safe and no one is left behind. Before leaving we stopped at an "enlightened" spot. Clothes (including boots and socks) are given by them (does not apply to underwear)

This was an amazing experience! It was exciting to be able to make our way through a cave in its natural state. We appreciated being provided with clothing, boots, and helmet with light for our adventure climbing over the rocks and sloshing through the underground water. Ash is an awesome guide, and he led us through the cave with both knowledge and a good sense of humor, as well as with kindness and concern for everyone in the group. We loved too that he offered to take great photos of us as we went through the cave, and with the incredible glow worms above us. This experience is a highlight of our trip!

This tour is an absolute must do when in the area. We did the private tour so it was just our family of 4 along with the tour guide, Heath. Although it is a bit pricey compared to other tours, it is definitely worth the value. It truly was an amazing experience. The caves have been untouched and remain as nature created them. They provide all the clothing and footwear you need as you will get dirty crawling over the rocks and through the water. The attire adds to the experience. You must be relatively fit as you are crawling through crevices and there is a hike to get down to the caves and back up. The hot shower with drinks, snacks and conversation with the owners at the end was also a nice touch to complete the experience. A truly must do!

Thank you so much for your review. It is great to have small groups, especially private tours as we can adjust each tour to suit the group. Our guides are great at working with the groups to challenge those who are wanting it and helping others that need it. We are super glad you had a great time and enjoyed our backyard.

This is our third trip to New Zealand and our third trip to Waitomo. We absolutely love the glowworms. I also love photography, but the problem was taking pictures of glowworms is tricky and you could never do that on the tours, and we never really spent enough time viewing the glowworms. And then, I discovered Glowing Adventures which solved all that. We went on the private photography tour so we could have an opportunity to set up the tripod and take as many pictures as we wanted and that is exactly what the tour entails. You first walk through a beautiful forest for a bit and get to the cave. They give you complete gear, boots and clothes and you need it, because through the cave you are walking in mud and through water (yes, you do get wet) to get to the area where the glowworms are. Words cannot describe what it's like when you turn your headlamps off and you slowly see the glowworms appear. We set up the tripod there and, honestly, at this point I just let my boys take the pictures, I just gave occasional advice, and back and enjoyed looking at everything. One of our trip highlights and will definitely go again next time we return to New Zealand.

Wow, this review is so appreciated Lana! Glowing Adventures is a small family business working hard to provide a genuine caving adventure. It’s amazing to hear how much you loved the experience. We really believe in getting off the beaten track and experiencing glow worms just as nature intended. We’re so glad you agree. Come visit us again one day - we’d love to welcome you back to our little piece of paradise in Waitomo :)

We had so much fun. The worms are not nearly as vibrant as most peoples pictures might showcase. I have attached an image to give a better understanding. They make the caves almost look like a pitch black sky and they are the tiny stars off in the distance. It was so beautiful to just sit in the darkness at times and stare above while listening to the water move through the caves. A recent storm had moved through before we got there, wiping out most of the worm's long dangling webbing (not sure what to call it).
We did find out while we were there that while they normally offer night tours during the summer, you can reach out to them during the winter time and request a night tour. This helps to get the cave entrance shot which has more glowworms (as you won't have sunlight spilling into the entrance to ruin your long exposure).
We are so glad we went through this experience with Glowing Adventures as we had read that some venture into some of the other caving systems just on their own. While free is nice, safety and having the right equipment/clothing is paramount. This experience is so worth the cost.
And added bonus, we got to see an eel swimming in the water as we were playing with light painting.

We had a private photo tour (2 people) in January 2019 - was expensive but worth it. As all the other tours forbid personal cameras (after experiencing two other tours, I can understand why: I would just spoil the experience for others) I was curious to see the difference at Glowing Adventures.
Their photographic tours are always private, and that has a reason. I’m an ambitious amateur photographer for the last 35 years but to take pictures in a totally dark glowworm cave has been one of the most challenging experiences for me so far. Exposure times of 30sec. and more, experimenting with combinations of different settings plus a torch to illuminate some parts of the cave for a second or so to give it some structure…Well, we were in the cave for almost two hours and I took about 50 pictures – of which 10 turned out to be nice and 3-5 which I consider “decent”. Not something you can publish in National Geographic Magazine but o.k. for what I expect. See some attached to this review. They also send you in advance a very good script about what to prepare for, what gear to bring and tips & tricks.
The preparation with all the clothes for the trip is great, the team is very friendly and helpful and they give you advice where the good spots for the photos are. The rest is up to you, your camera and your skills. Be aware, that it can be a bit boring for the “non-photographer” – except, if you need him/her for assistance (carrying gear, illuminating parts of the cave with their torches etc.). They have to stand/sit around while you doing picture after picture….and with each picture taking easily a minute or longer…
The cave might have some less glowworms compared to the other two I’ve visited but the chance to have the place totally for yourself, switching out all light for several minutes and just to admire this wonder of nature is well worth it. I’m totally happy, that we did it!

The glow worms are amazing and it was fabulous to have an opportunity to take photos of the caves. Since the caves are pitch black it takes time to set up for the photo and then requires some skill to light paint the interior without detracting from the visible glow worms. The tour was fun and well run. While I was focused on taking photos the guide showed the other two in our group other parts of the cave. The hike to the cave was easy (mostly on a constructed walkway) through beautiful vegetation. We all had a fabulous time and enjoyed the conversation, tea and biscuits afterwards. They provided all the gear to wear into the cave so as to stay safe, warm and dry.

Hi, me and my daughter (age 18) are keen photographers and would love to do the tour on Dec 28 some time after 4pm. Is it possible to join up with another group of 2 people, or would we have to book our own tour at 799NZD? ULF and Ida from Stockholm, Sweden
