We had a wonderful time at the Kawiti Glow Worm Caves today with our family. Our two guides and admin were friendly, knowledgeable, and great with both adults and kids. They shared the history and cultural stories of the caves in a clear and engaging way. The glow worms were absolutely stunning, and we felt safe and well looked after the entire tour. Highly recommend this experience. It was truly memorable for our whole family.
