Waitomo Caves Excursion – Auckland

Waitomo Caves is just 2.5 hours from the Ports of Auckland. 

Known as one of New Zealand’s best natural attractions, take a boat ride through the glowworm grotto, marvel at thousands of magical glowworms and become part of over 130 years of cultural and natural history. The Waitomo Glowworm Caves tours are made up of two levels. The upper chamber is dry and decorated with stunning, delicate cave formations, and the lower level consists of stream passages, glowworms and the Cathedral, the tallest chamber in the cave.  A truely magical experience.

You will need to allow an hour for the tour of the main glow worm cave.  There are other caves available to view but this is dependent on how long your ship is docked for.
