This tour is for Cruise Ship customers and all members of the public staying in the Bay of Islands.

He has a wealth of knowledge about the history of New Zealand, Maori culture and native vegetation and birds.

We visit the Kawiti Glow Worm Caves, the Hundertwasser Toilets and take a leisurely 30-minute walk through the Opua Forest. All tours are approximately 3 hours long and leave from the Waitangi wharf at 9.30 am on Cruise Ship days. On other days the tour leaves from the Paihia I-site at 9.30am.

Your 30-minute guided tour will follow a wooden boardwalk (with handrails) through a 200-metre limestone cave system. Once inside, you will see thousands of glow worms spread across the ceiling surrounded by breath taking stalactites and stalagmites.
