• Hamilton Gardens - Explore an enchanting world of secret gardens at Waikato’s most visited tourist destination. The international award-winning Hamilton Gardens is unique; it tells “the story of gardens”.

Hamilton Gardens is not a botanical garden. Instead, its concept acknowledges there is a story to tell about gardens, their development over time and across cultures, and their use. The concept has been compared to a museum, where each garden collection has historic integrity and provides a window into the story of civilisations, their arts, beliefs and lifestyles.

• Waitomo Glowworm Caves - The Glow worm known as Arachnocampa Luminosa, is unique to New Zealand. Thousands of these tiny creatures radiate their unmistakable luminescent light as your expert guide will provide information on the Cave’s historical and geological significance.
  The caves were formed over 30 million years ago and comprises 2 levels. The upper level is dry and includes the entrance to the caves and formations known as the Catacombs. On the lower level are stream passages and the Cathedral, walk from the upper level to a 45 minutes boat journey through the starry wonderland of the Glowworm Grotto. Walk through the majestic Cathedral Cove famous for its acoustics.

Your return journey would be through The Waikato farming region with the different animals that you would see along the way, partly following New Zealand’s longest river. An additional attraction will be added on route time permitting
