We had a great time doing the black water rafting tubing waitomo caves tour! The water was quite cold but it was an amazing experience and I would definitely do it again next time we're in the area. The glow worms were beautiful to look at in the pitch black of the caves when everyone turns down their lights. There... More

I recently join the Black Odyssey tour and felt a bit disappointed. Everything about the tour itself and The Legendary Black Water Rafting Co. is good, except for our tour guide, which is a shame. He was quite mean, pushy and impatient. Watch out for this electrician-turn-tour guide (who told us that he got this job as he did all... More

We spent a day at Waitomo during the summer, and had an amazing experience. We did a tubing trip in the morning, and the Odyssey tour in the afternoon. Both were pretty fun, but if you want to push yourself, you can't look past the Odyssey tour. I may have wanted to give up halfway through, but with my girlfriend... More

While in New Zealand I was fortunate to do a lot of things: Luging, kayaking, white water rafting...but this was by far the best! Absolutely fantastic experience and so much fun. The guides were a lot of fun and kept everyone having a good time. Our group was also small enough that we never felt over-crowded and had a good... More

I have very few words to convey how amazing this tour was today. I was extremely nervous but everything, from the preparation outside the cave to the guidance inside, made me totally at ease and able to enjoy the sheer wonder of the caves themselves. All I can really say is DO IT!! (We did the 1.30pm Black Labyrinth Tour.... More

A highlight of our trip! We chose to do the black labrynth package which lasts around 3 hours. Surprisingly it was not as cold as we expected so the very attractive wet suits obviously did the job. The guides were really good fun and very knowledgeable, the first part of the tour they take you down to a river to... More

My partner and I were keen on seeing glow worms, and completely uncharacteristically chose to do it in a very adventurous way. We have never done anything remotely like this before. It was a great and at times challenging experience. I was concerned that they wouldn't have a wetsuit to fit me, but they have a huge range of sizes... More

We signed up for the Black Abyss tour, a 5 hour caving adventure that included abseiling, flying fox, tubing down a river and exploring the inners of a beautiful glow-worm filled cave in Waitomo, N.Z. This company was recommended by the people we were staying with and they were truly excellent. Cannot praise the staff enough. They were at all... More

Black water rafting was such a unique experience. It was adventurous enough for experienced canyoners like my husband whilst perfectly safe and thrilling for beginners like me. The practice jump at the lake really gets you comfortable and after the first jump in the cave you're left wanting more! If you're still not 100% confident, the guides are more than... More
