Black Water Rafting & Rotorua Canopy Tour

Explore the unique New Zealand environment above and below the ground with this eco-friendly combo and save 15%. Swing from the trees in Rotorua before exploring a subterranean, glowworm-studded underworld at Waitomo Caves.


​Rotorua Canopy Tour: Go on the trip of a lifetime through a long forgotten ancient forest. Move through the forest on ziplines, swing bridges and walking trails, while classic kiwi guides bring the environment to life. You’ll also learn about and contribute to an extensive predator control programme to restore this magical environment to its former beauty.

Black Labyrinth Tour: The original Waitomo Black Water Rafting tour that will have you exploring and tubing through mysterious Ruakuri Cave. Grab a group of mates, an inner tube, and let’s take you on an unreal underground adventure you will never forget. Learn all about this natural wonder and the work we do to protect the fresh water that makes up our underground river and the native forests that grow above it.

The Logistics: The drive between Waitomo and Rotorua takes approximately 2 hours through beautiful Waikato countryside. This self-drive combo can be done in either order and spread across different days, giving you plenty of time to explore both regions at your own pace. Each tour takes 3 hours. The time start you choose will be your Black Water Rafting tour so please take into consideration where you will be starting your adventure from.
