The fireflies in childhood memory are in the summer dusk, as if scattered on the earth, the faint stars. We followed Maori guides on a boat, shuttled deep in the dark river in the cave. Looking up, the fireflies perched in the corners of the deepest cave, quietly exuding a faint halo. It is a pity that I can't use the camera phone to record this wonderful moment. If you can, you still have to be immersed and experience it in depth. Waitomo Firefly Cave is not only a place to literally see fireflies, but the stories of nature, history, culture and Maori ethnicity that it carries are even more exciting.

It takes 2 and a half hours to drive from Oran. The scenery is beautiful and suitable for children. Free attractions, parking is also free 🆓 It takes about 20 minutes to walk from the parking lot to the bottom of the waterfall. It is a place worth visiting.

Ruakuli cave, only 10 minutes drive from the famous Waitomo cave, the underground adventure is an hour and a half walk, you can see the blue light fireflies up close, listen to the narrator about the cave legend (the whole English explanation). It is worth mentioning that some areas in the Ruakuli cave are allowed to take pictures (Waitomo is not allowed to take pictures!), so friends who like photography are worth a visit!

Motorola's blue spring is definitely a beautiful suffocating place, here a curved spring water shows sky blue and very clear, the water grass under the spring water with the stream flowing, as if to a fairyland, really intoxicating.

Caves

The Alanoi Cave is the best-preserved secret cave in Waitomo, located in the Ruakuri Nature Reserve, only 3 km from Waitomo Firefly Cave and 5 minutes by car. The cave was first discovered by Maori Ruruku Aranoi in 1910, so the cave was named after him. The Aranoi Cave is the smallest and most exquisite of the three caves in Waitomo, a dry hole without a dark river inside, so there are not many creatures in the cave. Walk through the forest of nature reserves to enter the beautiful ornate caves, where prehistoric limestone formations can be photographed up close. Pink, milky white, brown stalactites, stalagmites and meteorites. This cave is full of the mythical legends of the Maori people.

Just 5 km from down town Auckland it’s the highest volcano in Auckland on Mt Eden. The last eruption was about 15,000 years ago, leaving a crater 50Mt deep. Walk to the top of Mt Eden Volcano, there you’ll get a 360° view of Auckland so long as the rain stays away.
