Awesome Experience!

Saw tons of glowworms, did a variety of activities from abseiling, to rock-climbing and tubing. Pictures at the end were a reasonable $25,- and were surprisingly enough full of good pictures despite the low-light conditions! They also add some 'standard' pictures to make sure you and the home-front are not missing out on fully capturing the experience.

Fun day out with friends

I expected the rafting to be more thrilling and fast paced, but still enjoyed the slow river rapids to get into the caves. The glow worms were spectacular, I've never seen anything like it! Really special. Getting to do some caving, abseiling and rock climbing were fun additions to the day! I'd say it's suitable for beginner/low-medium thrill seekers but if you are looking for some high octane water activites - white water rafting is going to be more up your street.

An incredibly fun day full of laughs

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.
