Eine der besten Erfahrungen

Unsere Tour mit Tim war richtig toll! Er hat eine sehr ansteckende Ruhe ausgestrahlt. Durch seine Sicherheitseinführung haben wir uns sehr sicher gefühlt. Die Höhlen waren sehr beeindruckend. Besonders im Dunkeln, obwohl es nie wirklich dunkel ist, wegen all der Glowworms. Gut gefallen hat uns auch das im Reifen durch die Höhlen treiben. Heiße Drinks und Schokolade in der Höhle zum Aufwärmen kamen genau zur richtigen Zeit. Abseilen, raften, durch die Höhlen klettern, auch durch engere Abschnitte, Glowworms gucken, klettern - eine sehr schöne runde Kiste :) Danke!

Coole Tour :)

Anfangs dachte ich jetzt kommt doch wieder nur eine langweilige Glow Worm Tour, aber das hat sich ganz schnell gelegt :) Unser Guide Will war ein cooler Typ und hat uns viel erklärt. Das Abseiling war echt ein richtig cooles Erlebnis, bisher noch nie erlebt! Da wir genug Strömung hatten war auch das Rafting entsprechend aufregend und lustig. Die Felsspalten durch die man klettert sind an und für sich nicht notwendig da man auch außen rum gehen kann, hier geht es lediglich um den Spaßfaktor. Man durfte leider keine eigenen Bilder machen

Super Erfahrung

Es war ein Highlight unseres Neuseeland Urlaubs. Zum einen die Höhlen und die Glühwürmchen zu sehen, zum anderen das Abseilen und Klettern, eine tolle Kombination. Und am Ende ist man stolz, das alles gemeistert zu haben. Nur zu empfehlen ?

Great adventure

Eine unglaubliche Erfahrung! Es macht unfassbar viel Spaß, muss sich körperlich betätigen aber wird dafür belohnt. Unser Guide war ein sehr lustiger Zeitgenosse, mit dem man viel Spaß hatte. Er hat alles gut und anschaulich erklärt, erzählt was uns erwarten wird... Black Water Rafting kann ih nur empfehlen!
