New Zealand prides itself as one of the few countries in the world with an incredibly wide range of natural resources and wonderful attractions.

Under the green hills of Waitomo lies a labyrinth of caves, sinkholes and underground rivers. Ride a boat beneath thousands of tiny glow-worms inhabit the cave and put on a mesmerising light display likened to the twinkling night sky.
