★★★★★ via Tripadvisor
"The Waitomo Caves are breathtaking natural attractions and stunning limestone formation. A guided boat ride through the Glowworm Caves creates a peaceful and unforgettable experience as thousands of tiny lights sparkled overhead like a star filled sky. Just wonderful!"
H Harry W Waitomo Glowworm Caves
★★★★★ via Tripadvisor
"This trail from Arrowtown to Queenstown is absolutely stunning. Arrowtown itself is worth at least an hour to visit before you set off. The views are just once in a lifetime. Trail is well marked and the team are great."
T Turkey007 Arrowtown to Queenstown Mountain Bike Day
★★★★★ via Tripadvisor
"Geysers, hot springs and boiling mudpools as you expect were all great but the bonuses are seeing kiwis and learing about Maori craftwork!"

"The mud bath was a great experience Our skin feels amazing afterwards We loved trying out all the pools after the mud bath"
S Stacey B Hell's Gate Geothermal Walk, Mud Bath and Sulphur Spa, Rotorua
★★★★★ via Tripadvisor
"Loved the whole experience. Easy check in process and super friendly staff. We had a very small group so wait time at each platform was very minimal. Such a scenic, beautiful spot to zipline."

★★★★★ via Tripadvisor
"Had a fantastic time on this trip. Thoroughly recommend. Was an experience that we won't forget. The guide was great - friendly, knowledgeable and patient. The views spectacular. We feed the baby lambs. Saw the nesting and swimming penguins. Couldn't have asked for more."

What costs extra on the day?

40 of 112 listings name a cost not in the price, such as transport (self-drive); transfers to waitomo; transfers. The table shows each one; the tour page has the full list.

Is it cheaper to book New Zealand tours direct with the operator?

It depends on the trip. Of the 112 we sell: 24 include pickup or transfers; 31 include gear and equipment; 34 include some meals or snacks; 21 include accommodation; 12 include park or entry fees. Each tour page lists exactly what's included and what isn't.

How do I get the cheapest price on New Zealand tours?

Each "from" price above is the trip's lowest-priced date and room, so pick a date that shows that price on the tour page. The 7 tours marked "Lowest price we've found" are below the RRP and every other booking site we checked today. Found the identical trip cheaper on another Australian booking site? Send us the link and we'll do our best to beat it (our Price Match Promise).
