Take a small-group tour to visit the amazing Waitomo Caves, where you&#39;ll be in awe of the cave formations and the thousands of Glowworms sparkling above you.

&nbsp;

Your tour starts in Auckland with pick-ups from selected accommodation.&nbsp;Exiting Auckland, drive south through the stunning Waikato countryside, the most extensive farming area in the world. Encounter stunning scenery, mighty rivers, great photo opportunities, beautiful mountains and several farm animals along the way. During this journey,&nbsp;you&#39;ll pass through Taupiri, which has many interesting sites of&nbsp;cultural significance, including local Maori burial grounds &amp; cultural totem poles.

&nbsp;

You&#39;ll also journey through a few quaint country towns along the way. The first is&nbsp;Pirongia, where you&#39;ll stop for a quick coffee break and learn about local history and the New Zealand Land Wars. Then enter&nbsp;Otorohanga, &quot;The Kiwiana capital of New Zealand&quot;. See all things Kiwi&nbsp;as you pass through this unique and charming town.

&nbsp;

Once you arrive at Waitomo, you&#39;ll take the&nbsp;Waitomo Glowworm Caves &amp; Glowworm Grotto&nbsp;Boat Ride.&nbsp;Be guided through the ancient and&nbsp;amazing caves seeing many different cave formations, including stalactites,&nbsp;stalagmites and lime columns. Then descend&nbsp;even further underground for&nbsp;your Glowworm experience.

&nbsp;

Board your boat for a cruise on the grotto river with thousands of Glowworms sparkling above you. Unique to New Zealand for over 120&nbsp;years, Waitomo Glowworm Caves are a must-see for any traveller.

&nbsp;

On your way out of Waitomo, stop outside Big Bird to see and meet some of the&nbsp;local friendly animals.&nbsp;These guys know the guides well, and even though there&#39;s no&nbsp;time to go&nbsp;inside the park, the friendly animals will often come to the fences for a photo&nbsp;or two, thrilling guests.

&nbsp;

As you head north and back to Auckland, your day is not over with a fully guided return trip to&nbsp;Auckland with secret stops along the way, where you can also add the Otorohanga Kiwi House to&nbsp;enhance your day.
