Te Anaroa Caves

Come with us to an
underground hideaway of magnificent natural beauty.

An ancient place, deep beneath the earth, where stalactites and stalagmites abound...

You'll see fossilised shellfish - the size they were, millions of years before humans discovered the scallop pie!

Turn out the lights and gaze up at the roof of the cave far above...

There are Glow Worms, shining like stars overhead in a subterranean sky.

Te Anaroa Caves Tour is a safe and easy one-and-a-half hour underground adventure which has delighted visitors of all ages for more than a hundred years.

We'll give you an informal and interesting guided tour as we journey together through 350 metres of spectacular ancient limestone formations.

Wear sturdy footwear. Jandals and sandals are not recommended. Safety helmets and lights supplied.
