Kawiti Glow Worm Caves, Hundertwasser Centre, Opua Forest Walk

Step into a glittering underground world on this unforgettable tour combining three of Northland's most unique attractions. Walk a wooden boardwalk through a 200-metre limestone cave alive with thousands of native glow worms - their blue-green light illuminating ancient stalactites and stalagmites above you - while your guide brings the magic to life with the story of New Zealand's remarkable Arachnocampa Luminosa. From there, discover Kawakawa's world-famous Hundertwasser buildings, where recycled materials and bold artistic vision turned even a public toilet into an international work of art, before finishing among the giants of Opua Forest - ancient kauri trees standing tall for over a thousand years. Three extraordinary experiences, one remarkable day in Northland.
