WAITOMO GLOWWORM CAVES: Journey underground on a subterranean adventure through limestone chambers and passages. Be suspended in awe and silence, surrounded by cave decorations and a galaxy of tiny living lights found in the Waitomo Glowworm Caves. As you glide quietly beneath the lights of thousands of glowworms, it is only the gentle sound of dripping water that reminds you that you are deep underground and not beneath a star filled sky.

ARANUI CAVE:
As the smallest and loveliest of the three caves the delicate formations of Aranui never fail to amaze. Its attraction lies in the enchanting array of white limestone formation crowding on top of each other. The geography of Aranui is more simple than that Ruakuri or Glowworm Caves, where intertwining caverns at different levels make a complicated maze.
Unlike Ruakuri or the Glowworm Caves there is only one entrance to Aranui and there is no river flowing through the cave therefore there is very little life past the entrance, just inside the door however there is a large colony of cave wetas.
The massed delicacy of the millions of stalactites in Aranui Cave is probably without equal in the world. Almost every corner of the roof and walls is packed with fragile, sparkling forms that bewilder the mind with their unending variety.
