Location: 654 Waitomo Caves Road, Waitomo
Fitness Test: If the guide(s) on the day have any doubt about a client’s fitness they may ask them to prove it by completing a fitness-test. One quick and simple test we may use is “to step up and down a 20 cm (8 inches) step not less than 45 times in 60 seconds”. We strongly recommend clients complete this test before they book their activity and before they travel to Waitomo. Clients may also be requested to submit to breath-testing for alcohol or other drugs. Where appropriate, guides may at their sole discretion cancel a departure or remove an unsuitable client from a departing trip for any safety-related reason.
Pregnancy: We do not recommend abseiling ( rappelling ) during the 1st and 3rd trimester due to the need to wear a tight-fitting harness across your waist during the abseil.
All pregnant clients wishing to participate in one of our adventure options must provide a medical certificate from their General Medical Practitioner confirming that they are fit for abseiling ( rappelling ) and caving.
This policy is required for us to comply with the NZ Adventure Safety Regulations.

We had a very good time on this adventure led by friendly and professional guides. Security is their priority, they are very strict on checking equipment and making sure you follow instructions. That made me feel very confident. It is a little challenging if you don't have prior experience with caving and abseiling, but not really difficult. In total you spend about two hours underground. We were with a group of three which was perfect, with a bigger group we would have had to wait much more in between activities.
