Как сэкономить
Local bush walks if glowworm caves aren’t affordable
There’s some really great bush walks in the area, such as the Ruakuri Bush Walk which is located 10 minutes down the road from the Glowworm Caves. If you walk in just on dark, you’ll be able to spot some glowworms!
Что взять с собой
Pack comfortable shoes
When visiting some of the local attractions, wearing comfortable shoes is key!
Что взять с собой
Always pack water, charger and some snacks!
There’s always places available when travelling where you can charge your phone. Packing water is a must especially during summer and packing food is also a great option especially if your trying to reduce costs or if you get caught out in an area with no food available.
Забронировать до поездки
Busy attractions eg - The Glowworm Caves
It always pays to call and book in advance and with the Caves, some really great times to go during peak is first few tours of the day or last. That way you miss the crazy rush hours!
