The glow worm twilight tour was amazing. Learning about the cave’s discovery and its excavation, all done by hand, is something we’re still talking about. Ross’s excitement about the cave’s history and its contents was captivating and infectious. We saw items found during the excavation - very cool - and learned all about the glow worms - fascinating and beautiful!... More

We went to the Waitomo caves to go 'Black-water rafting' and honestly, it was one of the best things I have done! Rich and Rod were awesome guides and the experience of getting amongst the fresh water rapids and waterfalls within the cave was exhilarating!! Would definitely go again and recommend this! More

I did the Footwhistle Glowworm Cave Twilight Tour. The guide, Ross, was really friendly and funny. The cave is smaller that what I expected but very well fitted and beautiful. Lots of glowworms to see, some very closely. I would advice to do the twilight tour instead of a day one because it would be a shame to miss the... More

This is a friendly, family-run company that provides the best experiences for Waitomo Caves visitors. I did the glowworm cave tour & blackwater rafting and loved both. More

This was our first visit to the glow worm caves of waitomo, and right from before we arrived, the help and information from CAveworld about planning our tour was brilliant. They came and picked us up from our hotel just before sunset, and we enjoyed the most amazing reflected sunset sky as the minibus wound its way through the hills... More
