    On this trip we went with Spellbound Cave Explorer.

    On this trip we went with Spellbound Cave Explorer. Went to two caves the first, after a short walkthrough bush we entered the cave and then got into a rubber raft where we were pulled along the underground stream , looking up at the ceiling it was covered with glow-worms. Very pretty & fascinating. After a coffee break we went into the second cave where we saw lots of stalagmites and stalactites and even the bones of an ancient extinct bird, the Moa. The guide was very knowledgeable and told us how the rock formations were formed. An excellent tour.

    Stunning stalactites and stalagmite formations. A huge cave.

    Stunning stalactites and stalagmite formations. A huge cave. The tour guide was well spoken and clear and sung beautifully to demonstrate the acoustics. Very clean and spacious walking areas, well supported stairs. Much bigger than imagined. The glow worms were so pretty it was like a stary night sky in the outback. Priceless experience.

    Glowworms good.

    Glowworms good. Cave formations underwhelming compared to Tasmania and not value for money, tour guides were excellent though. Village pub and restaurant food was just average but staff were friendly and professional.

    We did the Waitomo Cave boat tour in the evening before...

    We did the Waitomo Cave boat tour in the evening before dinner and the Ruakuri Cave tour the next morning. They both were stunning. Guides were friendly and informative. We heard from another couple on the second tour that they had done several other caves and an exciting adventure (the Abyss if I remember correctly). I want to do that next time.

    The caves are fantastic and well worth seeing.

    The caves are fantastic and well worth seeing. Harrison was a great tour guide (and has a good singing voice too) The pathway through is well paved and there are a few sets of steps, but they do have good handrails. People say that once you've seen glow worms you've seen them all, but you can't quite beat the sheer number of them as you go through the caves on the boat. If you can avoid the noisy people who can't be quiet when they've been asked to and then don't know what comes next because they weren't listening, this will enhance your trip.

    We just did the one cave.

    We just did the one cave. I would recommend doing the main caves and the Ruatara as well. If you are young and up for it, add the black water rafting. Oh and don’t forget the night time walk of Ruatara - see Lonely Planet.

    This was a really quirky place. The couple who own and run it were lovely and so helpful. Breakfast is around a large dining table, so we were able to get to know our fellow guests. Easy walking distance to the restaurants. However, it is a steep climb back to the hotel. On a positive, means you can have a pud as you know you will have walked it off by the time you get back. A really lovely place, fantastic views and I would highly recommend.

    The main building where the kitchen and lounge are, is clean and has everything you can think of for a pleasant stay. Bathrooms a d shower are clean. Our double room was as big as 2 beds and less than 2 meters in between, if you're visiting the caves and need somewhere to sleep, it's a good setup. If you don't want to cook, the cafe nearby has good food. We tried their boil up pie and breakfasts, we loved them the food.

    Great atmosphere, friendly owner always joking around, beautiful surroundings (farm), clean showers and kitchen, option to buy items for dinner/breakfast, and lots of communal space (inside & out!) with couches, benches and games, books... For those arriving with InterCity Bus: they're willing to pick you up, just call ahead if you don't feel like walking.

    This is not a Motel. It is cabins and do not have toilet or bathroom facilities in them. You have to walk to another area for them. They were clean and well-maintained with good heating and ventilation. Basic but good-sized (king single bunks) beds with good bedding. Great kitchen and dining room (shared) Good cafe next door for breakfast.

    Lynn was outstanding. She was very helpful & attentive. She didn't just hand us the room key, but also pointed out facilities nearby, gave us a tour of the breakfast area, & gave us a tour of our room. She also provided towels for our tour of the glow worm cave, even though we had checked out.

    Great B&B in Waitomo Caves! The bed was super comfy, and the rooms look way better than the pictures on this website. We got great recommendations for where to eat and what to do --- the night hike to see the glowworms is awesome! Super friendly hosts!

    So nice to have breakfast already in the room when we arrived, making the next morning relaxed and easy. View is incredible and the grotto is amazing. We just loved it here. Hosts were so friendly, as were the host cat and dog.

    A novelty experience that's quite unique to be in your very own Hobbit house. As per website photos. Love the concept and would recommend others trying the experience. Waitomo Caves are a short drive away.
