The Charleston Gloworm Cave Tour takes visitors by train into the magnificent rain forest of the Nile River Canyon to explore the enormous Nile River Cave System.
About
In the cave visitors will experience an ancient wonderland of stalactites and stalagmites and galaxies of GlowWorms all in their natural unspoilt state the way the cavers first discovered them.
Underworld Rafting and The GlowWorm Cave Tours are adventures in one of New Zealand's largest natural wilderness cave systems amidst spectacular Stalactite and Stalagmite creations and galaxies of GlowWorms that are unequaled on our planet.
