Excellent trout organization and very friendly staff. While it was a pity that the Waitomo Cave tour was canceled due to bad weather and flooding, the Hobbiton village experience was amazing.★

Reviews: Twilight Glowworm Kayak Tour – Lake Karapiro
Guest User2026-01-09
This was the highlight of our trip, beautiful, very easy going kayaking. Lovely guides. Even if you’ve seen glowworms elsewhere, this is next level. We felt very safe and well cared for throughout the experience.
Would recommend hiring the backrest (additional $10) for comfort.★

Reviews: New Zealand Rotorua Glowworm Kayaking Tour
Guest User2026-03-04
It was a perfect trip! Frank was incredibly kind to book our Lantern Festival tour. Our local New Zealand guide, Classy, picked us up on time at the Rotorua Visitor Centre and took us to Lake Okareka. We stopped at their shop along the way to explain what to wear and provide free kayaking gear. Upon arrival at the lake, they provided kayaks and paddles and offered paddling lessons, which was very helpful for kayaking beginners like us.
We were divided into groups of 3-4 kayaks, each led by Classy and Sharon, to observe glowworms scattered across the lake and in caves. They explained everything to us, and their service was professional, warm, and attentive. At the last cave, they even offered local snacks and hot cocoa.
The tranquil night, paddling on the lake under a sky full of stars, with glowworms twinkling like stars in the caves, was a truly wonderful experience.
