We had rach as our guide - the experience was second to none - a real up close and personal experience with the gloworms !! The best thing I have done so far ! Thank you and cheers for the sexy pants

Was the best end to my holiday, abseiling, climbing walls, climbing through rocks, glow worms, tubing and the water wasnt that cold when the adrenalin is pumping. Great for anyone to do but adrenalin junkies might find it a bit light on. Rachel the guide was awesome!!

What a fabulous day we had, taken outside my comfort zone and ticking boxes. Our guide Harrie was absolutely fantastic, so knowledgeable and so safe. Had a blast. Thanks heaps.

From start to finish, this experience was unforgettable. Most important, we laughed the whole day. Our guide Nigel was amazing, cheeky, fun, and highly experienced and knowledgeable. We learnt alot about the larvae and other creatures lurking in the darkness. We literally squeezed ourselves through caverns and rafted on tubes down a stream. Enjoyed hot tea and chocolate sitting under the glow of larvae which was just incredible. And got to abseil in and rock climb out of the cave. To finish up you get a warm cuppa soup and bread roll and hot shower after.

This is an unforgettable experience, thanks for the guidance and teaching, she is a great leader. We participate in altitude plunge, wormhole exploration, Black river drifting , rock climbing, it is really interesting experience, let us have a good memory.

It was fun with friends. :) Instructor and our guide Kelly cool and fun !! Experience of natural wonders .. i.e. Glow worms and Amazing Caves. Abseiling and rock climbing was fun. Our Clothes and attire was the most funniest for the adventure though ;)

Kiwi Cave Rafting did a great job giving us a thorough experience. Black Water Rafting, Caving, Abseiling, Rock climbing and Glow Worms. Highlight personally was the concentration of glow worms, best I've ever seen.

Black water rafting on bucket list: tick. Cat was our guide and she was an absolute legend! Really knowledgeable, warm, friendly and welcoming! She also has the amazing skill of encouraging you but not making you feel silly if you have any fears. I would highly recommend this! The groups are a great size and a whole lot of fun will be had. Thank you Cat for such a fabulous time and adventure. I truly do treasure this memory and the fact that we didn't have to worry about taking photos, was awesome.

It was amazing day. Fabulous staff. Definitely recommend it to anyone who loves water, thrill and adventure.

Had an awesome time at Kiwi Cave - Black Water Rafting! My friend and I were slightly nervous at the beginning but our instructor/guide Tim made us feel safe and calm by cracking a few jokes. Through the experience, he was a great support person and helped me fight the current a couple of times. Overall a great experience and if you feel a bit nervous to give it a try remember that I did it (a person afraid of heights)! 😊

my daughter and I did the tubing caving adventure. so much fun ,some challenges for both of us but it really is another world. the gloworms were amazing especially as you drift along underneath them and the climbing, absailing and the squeeze were challenges for me but alot of fun. four hours is great value also, I would highly recommend it

My husband and i spent twelve days in nz. In both the south and the north island and we got to do alot but this experience didnt compare to anything else around not even in our own country. Best day ever, lovely guide, great company, good insights and warm soup.

It was one of the best experiences I had in New Zealand! My friends and I were really lucky to find this deal on Bookme and spontaneously decided to go. Turns out there was no one else and we ended up having a private Tour with a great guide who showed us all of the hidden treasures, all the while keeping us entertained. The activities were diverse and time just flies by. The big Glowworm Cave is the most beautiful I've ever seen - and I have seen a few, and Nigel certainly knows his way around all the little cracks he had us crawl through! We had a great time, lots of fun and we even got fed ;) all in all a perfect day!

Would recommend it to anyone who is up for a little adventure! The 27m abseiling was breathtaking! The guide was very friendly and informative! Thanks for this unforgettable experience!

肉类可以在牛肉，鱼肉，鸡肉跟绿贝里选一种。沙拉甜点水果是自助的。性价比还不错，环境也很好，中午还会有大巴带旅行团来。位置很深，自驾过去还挺可以，没有车的话会比较不好过去。

We enjoyed the cave and the guide was informative Our campervan was having trouble and left a few messages during business hours as we thought we’d have to cancel or postpone but our calls were not returned which caused a bit of stress at our end and when we got there they didn’t mention it so I’m not sure if they checked their messages Apart from that it was good and the guide Rich was friendly and happy to answer questions and was a gentleman and kept back not rushing up back up the steep stairs My daughter wanted to stay down longer

Very good knowledgeable staff. Highly recommend

Amazing lady that guided us to the cave. We are foreign with no much English but this lovely lady explain everything calmly that we could understand everything. Thank you so much

This was an incredible cave tour that takes you on a beautiful footpath lit by LED lighting and a really cool display of an old magnesium torch. Plenty of glow worms to view and the tour guide Ross was a lot of fun to be around. Ending with a nice cup of tea from the Kawakawa leaves on the property in cool native themed Hut. Photos do not do it justice it is a must see during your stay in New Zealand.

Loved this trip to see the glow worms and share kawakawa tea afterwards. The guide was great because he allowed us quiet time to just sit in the caves with the glow worms without needing to talk all the time. That was magic and really appreciated !!!

I have done other cave experiences with this company and am always impressed with the m. The guide was very knowledgeable and entertaining, and the caves were gorgeous. The kawakawa tea in the Ponga hut at the end was a lovely way to finish up.

My travel mate and I had a fantastic time. I have not done the other caves or adventure companies, but I can't imagine them topping our guides! They were fun, humorous, very informative, without it being too guided and it allowed you to bring in the experience in silence for much of the floating. I would definitely recommend to anyone looking at work cave adventures!

It was a great experience! An awesome way to end our weekend away. Easy to find.. Rich and his wife were lovely! Trip was small and informative.. We got to wonder through parts of the cave.. Learn about the history and see the glow worms and eels (eww lol) Those stairs are a killer though phew.. Haha so unfit. Loved the kawakawa tasting at the end! Thanks Footwhistle Tours - Totally recommend!!

Very pleasant trip to Hobbiton, bus ride from City to Hobbiton and Ruakuri's very informative and entertaining. The driver is very polite. Trip to Hobbiton is worth it! No hassles at all, and the buffet at the Green Dragon pub was great and something to look forward to as well. Ruakuri Cave tour was very enjoyable. Only downside was that we had to wait for a longer time for the bus taking us back to Auckland - and we are not even sure who we should look for or who we are waiting for if not for the lovely lady driver who was taking the other group to Rotorua. All in all, it was a great experience and must try tour while in auckland.

Definitely worth the cost! Our guide, Colleen was soooo good! Glowworms were everywhere and she explained all about their life.

I had an absolutely amazing time from the bus trip, Waitomo caves and Rotorua. It was an educational and magical day besides the unpredictable weather of NZ. Rachael our bus driver, was entertaining and great. All the tour guides were great and obviously very passionate about their work. Will definitely do this tour again. Thank you.

It was a real privilege to be able to view the glow worms in their environment. Rich was a perfect host

I was initially disappointed, as I hadn't realised that this was not the regular Glowworm tour on the boat, up at the main caves. However, it soon turned arouns, as we embarked on our small, almost private tour (only 6-8 people attending, plus the guide) We headed out to a privately owned cave. Walking through some woodland & through a Tea-house, which we visit after the tour, we descended a number of steps (you need to be fairly agile - there were a couple of us who struggled with the steps on the way back up). The guide was excellent & certainly knew her stuff. She was very informative & we saw some great cave features, including underground streams & of course glowworms. Heading back, we stopped in the Tea-house & were privelaged to taste Kawakawa tea, which was lovely. A nice change to the hoards of tourists on the usual crammed boat trip

Excellent tour, friendly knowledgeable tour guide Rich, magical cave ❤️ We will definitely be back again

Thanks for the great tour of footwhistle cave. We really enjoyed it.

We choose for the walking tour and were not disappointed! We only had 8 people on the tour, believe max is 10, so great small group. Guide was informative, cave was impressive and many many glowworms! If you want the fancy all singing all dancing tour, this is not the one, this is a small group, very informative and personal tour! We recommend it!!
