Auckland to Waitomo Caves

jour 1 / 4

Auckland - Waitomo Caves

As you cruise down the southern motorway, suburban scenery gradually gives way to the farmland of South Auckland, an area favoured by bloodstock breeders. You’ll enjoy motorway speeds all the way to Bombay, a major market gardening area.

The Waitomo Caves region is famous for its subterranean splendour. Beneath the surface of this ancient limestone region is a series of vast cave systems decorated with stalactites, stalagmites and glow-worms. Some caves open to the public, and are easy to walk through, others require specialised caving equipment. If you prefer a more relaxed approach take a boat ride through the Glowworm Grotto and marvel at the twinkling illuminations from thousands of tiny glowworms suspended from the cave ceiling.
