Reviews: Waitomo's Hidden Gem: Small-Group Off the Beaten Track Tour
Guest User2026-02-10
One of the best experiences I’ve ever had — hands down. The Down To Earth Glowworm tour was absolutely magical, and our guide Ash made it unforgettable. Ash was not only incredibly knowledgeable, but also so fun, engaging, and genuinely awesome to spend time with. He brought such great energy to the tour, explained everything in a way that was fascinating and easy to follow, and made the whole experience feel special rather than scripted.
Seeing the glowworms up close in such a natural, immersive setting was surreal and something I’ll never forget. From start to finish, this tour exceeded every expectation. If you’re even thinking about doing this — do it. I can’t recommend Down To Earth Glowworm Tours (and Ash!) highly enough.★

Excellent trout organization and very friendly staff. While it was a pity that the Waitomo Cave tour was canceled due to bad weather and flooding, the Hobbiton village experience was amazing.
