Glowworm cave. - It was fantastic. The view was wonderful. The cave was awesome. Whole family enjoyed the tour. Do not miss it. RealNZ staff were very kind as well.

A great activity for everyone! - A great activity to do for everyone! Our tour guide, Jess, was great and really enjoyed sharing her glow worm knowledge with us. The beauty of the cave with the water rushing through was amazing and then the boat ride through the serene water to see glow worms was a once in a lifetime experience!

The worms made my wife cry - Fantastic tour! The boat ride to the caves had a warmer indoor area along with the windy sights up top. Our guide, Alex, provided great info and made sure we understood the rules of the caves and gave fair warning to the tall about crouching into the cave. The cave itself was really cool, but the silent and dark punt boat voyage through a galaxy of glow worms was of course the best part. My wife cried because it was pretty. The little dots of blue light became clearer as your eyes adjusted. Afterward there was tea, a presentation on the glow worms, and (due to our timing) a chance to catch the moonrise over the nearby beach before our trip back to Te Anau.

Glowy wormy - Wonderful. Absolutely recommended. We booked a few minutes before the tour started. The boat was comfy and clean with plenty of seats. The tour guide at the cave was really good we learned alot of new things about the glow worms and the caves ecosystem.

Yea id give it a go - Frankly I didn't go for the worms I'd just heard the coffee was good, It was. Caves were extremely good too. 10/10 would recommend.

Majestic sights, both big and small - An experience like no other with great guides like Heath to make it all even more so memorable with his wit and his expansive knowledge. The boat ride to the caves from the main shore is a gorgeous appetizer till you get to the caves. Just brilliant. My wife and 7 year old daughter really loves it as well.

Good tour - Very good experience, boat across the lake briefing and then guided walk in the dark. Lots of good interpretation. As well quiet time on the boats to just look at the glowworms.

Very good, yet . . . - This is definitely something worth doing. However once in the grotto where the main glow worms are, all lights are off and it is absolutely pitch black. If you are anxious about the sense of being confined and disoriented - then this is not the place for you. You are very safe but I wonder if some kind of warning would be helpful about the utter darkness you'll find yourself in. Also you are in a boat at this point of the tour. I'm over 6 foot and the seating is such you will be uncomfortable if you're tall. Sit at the end of the bench seating and then you can stretch out a bit. Overall the cruise across the lake and the walk into the cave is beautiful. It is well guided. This is a must do if you're in Te Anau even with the comments at the start of this review.

~ok - It was ok. Boat ride over the lake was amazing, crew on the boat were lovely (Jess and Josie) tour guide had an annoying repetitive way of speaking. Photos of the glow worm caves are nothing like real life. It was ok, just a bit disappointing.

A little under whelming - The actual glow worms in the cave were under whelming. Very tiny and not as many as expected. The ENTIRE experience ( boat ride, walk through cave to glow worms and short theatre presentations) however was pretty cool. Staff at all aspects of the journey was extremely nice and courteous.
