So Exciting and Fun!

This adventure was everything I hoped it would be. A variety of methods to get through this cave makes this a unique experience. The guides are great and make sure you are safe with training and advice while you are actually doing all the activities yourself. The glow worms are spectacular, so surreal is this adventure. The time goes by quicker than you think because you’re having so much fun.

Our original cave adventure was rained out, and this company did a wonderful job of accommodating each individual in the group accordingly. They provided an alternate, equally challenging and exciting tour!

My 20 year old daughter and her BFF went on this tour while me and my wife went to Hobbiton. The tour group did a great job organizing and coordinating the different tours and arranged it so we could travel to and from Auckland with my daughter. My daughter absolutely loved this adventure. She's been in many caves and was so excited when she was done with this tour. She said, this was the only way to explore caves.

Great fun in the Abyss and the guides are great offering assistance if required, but try to allow you to do everything by yourself. My partner is not a good swimmer but not a problem. If you are after a little action to break up the sight seeing then give this a try for sure.
