RealNZ - Te Anau Glowworm Caves

Posted by chloe26 from New Zealand on18 Apr 2026
chloe26 said... I remember doing this as a kid and was excited to take my kids to experience it. Unfortunately it was a big let down. It's way overpriced for what you get (even one of our guides agreed with me about price). We did a lot of activities while on our trip and this ended up being the most expensive but the most disappointing. There definitely should be an opportunity for a photo stop, even if it's just at the first platform once in the caves. There is so much artificial light and a lot of noise going on so to say no photos because of the light or noise is bull. Just turn the flash off! The staff were friendly and the boat ride comfortable but I definitely wouldn't be recommending it. There seemed a lot less glowworms to what I remember as a kid 😞
