On our photography tours we provide beautiful natural New Zealand scenery both inside and outside of the glow worm caves, with an experienced guide. These tours are “private”. That is, your group and your guide will be the only participants on the tour. On photography tours we take a minimum of two and a maximum of four people. There are excellent photo opportunities, including beautiful glow worms. The cave system is one of only two in the Waitomo district that is classified by New Zealand's Department of Conservation as being of “International Significance”. And it is completely untouched! On photography tours we allow larger cameras and other equipment like small tripods. And you have the freedom to take a lot more time over your photography than you do on our other tours. Photographing glow worms is challenging, and can take some time. The results though can be spectacular!

We were just my husband and I for this visit. The Ash guide is exceptional. The experience is unique. I had chosen from the comments and I do not regret. Special mention for striped outfits. To do absolutely!

A pure happiness this visit! Really unimaginable. Ash is a great guide. Super nice, super funny, super pro. The visit is certainly a little sporty but not difficult. And the glowworms are so beautiful, it’s just the effect Wow times 1000! Take this tour, really!

This was the best experience ever! Ash was the best guide and it was totally worth it to do the private tour since we had so much time to figure out the camera settings for pictures. I thought we were just walking on a path in the caves, but we were in the water and ducking and shimmying on rocks and it was soooo much fun! 10/10 recommend!
