Had a fantastic day tour in Auckland with Liam today! His energy was absolutely infectious, and he had a gift for storytelling that brought New Zealand's history and culture to life in the most engaging way. He was incredibly friendly throughout the day, making sure everyone felt included and entertained. We learned so much, and left with a much deeper appreciation for this beautiful country. Definitely would recommend Liam@Expedigo to friends when they visit Auckland. 😊

In March, we went on a tour to the Waitomo Caves with David, and he did everything to make the trip memorable and comfortable. On the drive over, he entertained us with interesting stories of history and science. We also stopped at a bakery that was great. For the actual caves, a different guide took us through, and the glow worm cave was simply out of this world! What an incredible experience! I did a fair bit of research in choosing which location to see the glow worm caves, and I am so happy with this choice! On the way back, David took us to the Fat Kiwi, which was a delicious lunch spot. As a driver and tour guide, he made us feel safe and well cared for during the tour. I would highly recommend visiting such an incredible spot with this tour company!

Fun tour in which the bus, walking through beautiful scenery and boat trip through the caves are combined. The guide Oceana managed to enthuse us and gave us the best facts about nature. All with respect for nature.

We are glad the company was kind enough to go for the trip even with only 5 of us in a minibus that large enough to fit 14. Aaron picked us up right on time. His restaurant recommendation is excellent. Thanks again Aaron !

Aaron, our guide and driver was so knowledgeable about New Zealand. He gave a great commentary during the drive both there and back. The glow worm cave was absolutely amazing. Didn’t know what to expect but the experience was one of our favorite on this trip. The cave tour guide was also knowledgeable and amazing to work with. Definitely recommend this tour.

We had a wonderful day and were indeed “spellbound” by the gloworms. Deane, our guide was very kind, patient and friendly. He ensured that we were comfortable and didn’t rush us at any place, thus making it an overall enjoyable trip.

Beyond my expectations. Both our guides, Wayne and Ross, knew their subjects well and had a good sense of humor. The setting, the glow worms and the cave experience were amazing.

This tour goes to Spellbound Glowworm Caves for a 2 1/2 hour tour that includes the glowworm cave and a second cave. You spend a lengthy time experiencing the glowworms. The second cave has a fascinating history. This is not a flashy, touristy destination, rather it is a beautiful experience with genuine people. Our driver, Wayne, was fantastic - pointing out sites along the long drive. We stopped for coffee at a bakery in the morning and in a small town for a bite after the caves. This tour by this company is well worth the drive. The landscape views alone are amazingly beautiful.
Thank you for taking the time to share your experience. We're so glad you enjoyed the Spellbound Glowworm Caves and appreciated what makes them so special—the chance to experience the glowworms in a more intimate and authentic setting. It's great to hear that Wayne helped make the journey enjoyable with his local knowledge and commentary along the way. The scenery on this route really is spectacular, and we're pleased you enjoyed the stops for coffee and a bite to eat as well. Thanks again for your kind words, and we hope to see you on another adventure soon.
