Your local Maori guide will lead you through underground caverns to see the glowworms and tell you how the caves came to be found. Later, enjoy a 30-minute guided walk through the Opua Kauri Forest.
Your tour will start at either the Waitangi Wharf (pickup and drop off point) on Cruise Ship days or the Paihia I-site on other days. Here your friendly local guide will transport you to the caves in a 12-seater dual air-conditioned minibus, around a 15-minute journey.
Our first destination is the Kawiti Glowworm Caves where a local Maori guide will lead you through underground caverns to see the glow worms and tell you how the caves came to be found.
Your 30 minute guided tour will follow a wooden boardwalk (with handrails) through a 200 meter limestone cave system. Once inside, you will see thousands of glow worms spread across the ceiling surrounded by breath taking stalactites and stalagmites.
Then, a short drive to Kawakawa, location of the world famous “Hundertwasser Toilets” one of the few public toilets seen as an international work of art, designed by the expatriate Austrian artist Friedensreich Hundertwasser, features the use of recycled materials from the local community.
You will also visit the recently opened Hundertwasser Cultural Centre. Opened in 2020, the centre offers an opportunity to enjoy the best of both Hundertwasser’s work and local Maori Arts & Crafts.
The final destination is the Opua Forest home to Kauri trees which are over 1000 years old.. From here we go back to the Wharf via the Waitangi lookout, where there are great photo opportunities particularly of your ship moored in the Bay.
