Poll: Are you a caving fan?

Libby Reporter from Waikato Local

I rarely say no to a new experience. Which is probably why I found myself, a non-swimmer with exactly zero caving experience, zipping into a wetsuit on a chilly Waitomo morning and wondering whether I was about to make national headlines for all the wrong reasons.

But how could I say no? This wasn’t just any old adventure. It was my first-ever caving expedition, my debut in a wetsuit, and my introduction one of New Zealand’s oldest tourist destinations. The promise of glowworms and underground wonder lured me in like a moth to a bioluminescent glow.

Have you been to Hamilton Gardens lately?

Libby Totton Reporter from Waikato Times

Hamilton will soon offer a portal to a medieval ‘hospital’, without the stress of the bubonic plague.

The Medieval Gardens will open next year at Hamilton Gardens, with much of the work already done.
