Beskrivning
Ge dig ut på ett fascinerande kvällsäventyr på kajakpaddling över sjön Rotoiti, Nya Zeelands pärla. Fördjupa dig i det hisnande landskapet och fågellivets symfoni när du paddlar mot den mytomspunna Glowworm-grottan, ett skådespel av bioluminiscens.

Denna förtrollande upplevelse är en perfekt harmoni av naturens under, och lämnar dig med omhuldade minnen av lugn och vördnad.

Unbelievable experience Professional guide Uchie Equipment first class Hot pools Unbelievable Gourmet BBQ dinner, magnificent! Glow worms 🪱 exquisite Cannot recommend this trip more highly Will do again
To be perfectly honest, my husband and I are older and in hindsight were not really up to the physical demands of the kayaking, but our guide was very understanding and accommodating and we made it through. That said, we thouroughly enjoyed this excursion and our 11 year old absolutely had the time of his life. The hot pools, the lake slide, the BBQ (and attending dog), and of course the glowworms made for a wonderful evening. Altogether, this was a highlight of our month in Australia and New Zealand.
Thank you so much for yourthoughtful review. We’re delighted to hear your guide helped make the experience comfortable and that your family had such a memorable evening enjoying the hot pools, lake slide, BBQ, and glowworms.
Alex and M were great guides! Very informative. Hot tubs and food were great. Glow worm experience was cool and informative. We would definitely recommend this trip.
Thank you so much for your feedback! We’re thrilled to hear you enjoyed the hot tubs, food, and glowworm experience, and that Alex made the tour informative and fun. Your recommendation means a lot to us, and we’d love to welcome you back for another great evening on the lake!
We had a mesmerizing experience on the lake with Cian. Kayaking across Lake Rototiti and then a delicious meal cooked by Cian lakeside was a memorable experience talking with other visitors from England. The highlight of the trip of course were the glow worms, which was amazing but honestly seeing the stars of the southern hemisphere and being on the lake at dusk was incredible! Thanks guys for a wonderful evening!
Thank you so much for your wonderful feedback! We’re thrilled to hear that your evening with Cian, from kayaking across Lake Rotoiti to enjoying a lakeside meal and meeting fellow visitors, was so memorable. The glowworms, southern stars, and peaceful dusk on the lake really do make it a magical experience, and we’re so glad you enjoyed it all. We truly appreciate your kind words and hope to welcome you back for another unforgettable evening on the water!
A great afternoon/evening kayaking, enjoying hot pools, eating a nice BBQ lunch on the waterfront picnic-style, and then seeing some glowworms. Royce and Cian were great guides, managing the logistics very well and providing lots of great information on what you're seeing as well as what you're doing (i.e., if you're new to kayaking, they explain it well). If I had another day in Rotorua, I would have done this tour a second time because I enjoyed it so much.
Thank you so much for your wonderful feedback! We’re thrilled to hear you enjoyed the full experience, from kayaking and glowworms to the hot pools and BBQ by the lake. Royce and Cian will be absolutely stoked to hear your kind words; they take great pride in making the experience both informative and enjoyable, especially for those new to kayaking. We’re so glad the tour left such a strong impression, and it means a lot to hear you’d come back and do it all over again. We’d love to welcome you back anytime you’re in Rotorua!
Beautiful..an excellent team, competent available and smiling...a plus for me who is French: the dialogue with Idriss and his clear explanations in my language. Also highlight his professionalism..
Merci beaucoup pour votre merveilleux retour ! Nous sommes ravis que vous ayez apprécié l’expérience et le professionnalisme d’Idriss, ainsi que ses explications en français. Nous espérons vous accueillir à nouveau très bientôt !
We did the starlight gourmet kayak tour Lake Rotoiti. Henry our guide was a top bloke. He made everything easy even when it didn’t feel like it! He makes a pretty good salad too. The experience is one of a kind and well worth it. We had everything we need to stay safe and warm including extra clothing, jackets and gloves that hooked onto the oars. Our light went out on our kayak on the way back and Henry still kept us on track and calm. A great experience. Thanks for keeping us safe, fed, watered and entertained!
Thank you so much for sharing your experience with us! We’re delighted to hear you enjoyed the Starlight Gourmet Kayak Tour and that Henry made the adventure safe, fun, and memorable, salad skills included! It’s wonderful to know you felt well looked after with the extra gear and support, even when things didn’t go quite as planned. We truly appreciate your kind words and hope to welcome you back for another magical evening on Lake Rotoiti soon.
Kayaks were great and extra gear (jumper & jacket) was very handy. Tour guides were both super. We kayaked over to the hot springs 10/10!! Super quiet when we went, gorgeous spot, lake was fab for cooling down too. Dinner was delish. Headed to see the glow worms after that, v cool experience, learnt more about them too, both the Māori and the scientific versions. The Māori story was definitely nicer! Weather wasn’t ideal on the way back, but with all the extra gear we were all dry-ish and cozy, so it just added to the adventure! Only thing which brought the review down a bit was that on the way back, we (myself and the other girl in the kayak) felt like we were being slightly left behind. Apart from that, 10/10!
Thank you so much for taking the time to share your experience with us! We’re so glad to hear you enjoyed the kayaks, the extra gear, and of course the relaxing hot pools, definitely a 10/10 spot! It’s awesome that you appreciated both the Māori and scientific stories about the glow worms too, we agree, the Māori version is especially beautiful. While we’re stoked the weather added to the sense of adventure rather than taking away from it, we’re really sorry to hear you felt a little left behind on the paddle back. That’s definitely not the experience we aim to provide, and we’ll be passing this feedback on to the team to make sure everyone feels supported and included the whole way through. Thank you again for the honest feedback and kind words, we’d love to welcome you back for another adventure in the future! Warm regards, The Waimarino Team
Craig, our guide, was fantastic. From the beginning of our tour, we knew this was going to be a memorable experience. We paddled across Lake Rotoiti to the hot pools where Craig cooked up a BBQ for us, and we relaxed in beautiful hot pools. After relaxing and some food in our stomachs, we paddled across to the glow worm caves. It was nothing short of spectacular. After leaving the glow worm caves, we came out to a beautiful clear night of stars. We couldn't have asked for anything more. Craig was very informative and a great guide. I would highly recommend this to anyone who loves kayaking and beautiful scenery. Thank you so much.
Thank you so much for your kind words! We're thrilled to hear you had such a memorable experience with Craig, he really does go the extra mile to make the tour special. From the paddle across Lake Rotoiti to the relaxing hot pools, delicious BBQ, and magical glowworm caves, it sounds like you got the full experience topped off with a stunning starry night! Thanks again for joining us, and we hope to see you out on the water again one day!
Cam gave us an absolutely outstanding experience, highlight of our entire tour to NZ. Can't recommend highly enough! Breathtaking views, hard graft and a sense of achievement, and truly otherworldly cave kayaking.
Thank you so much for your amazing feedback! We're thrilled to hear that your experience with Cam was the highlight of your entire New Zealand tour. The breathtaking views, the rewarding challenge, and the magic of cave kayaking really do make it special, and we're so glad you felt that too. We'll be sure to pass your kind words on to Cam. Thanks again for choosing us and for sharing your adventure!
