Waitomo (Ruakuri & Glowworm Cave)

I took part in 2 tours today. One which is a guided tour of the Ruakuri Cave and then a guided tour of the Waitomo Glowworm Cave.

Both are absolutely stunning but my favourite is the Ruakuri Cave.

The Ruakuri Cave has everything: Amazing limestone formations, glowworms, underground rivers, hidden waterfalls. The pictures in this post are from this cave. Photography is not allowed in the Glowworm Cave.

The highlight in the Glowworm Cave is definitely the boat tour underneath a 'sky' of tens of thousands of glowworms. Even knowing that they are little predators and cannibals I still find them absolutely beautiful. 😊

To see what nature has created here is mind blowing.Read more
