Great tour, spectacular scenery. The facilities are amazing, and suitable for young children (my 5 year old enjoyed the tour). The boat ride at the end was one of the most beautiful things I have seen in my life. Amazing.

New Zealand is only one of two places in the world with glow worms so you pretty much HAVE to see them. We made extra time to stop here because of the reviews and I'm glad we did. Our guide was funny and very informative - his family has been giving tours of these caves for generations. Taking a silent boat ride through the dark looking up at the amazing lights from the glow worms was one of the highlights of my trip. It was simply amazing. Cute café on site and nice gift shop as well. I'm glad we made the time to stop here.

The coach of "Great Sights" is very good. It is equiped with WiFi and an emergency toilet. The gentleman named Rachael, who drove us, had a wonderful sense of humour and a great narrative style. The caves are worth a visit.
