Description:

Discover the natural beauty of a rainforest canyon lit up by hundreds of glowworms clinging to the walls. Traverse a steep rock face on an exciting zipline experience, run through New Zealand's famous river rapids, and get the chance to make a leap of faith with an adrenaline-pumping cliff jump.

Your adventure begins at the Greymouth base, where you meet the attentive local guides who drive you to the cave zone. There are 2 ways to reach the river—a 20-minute guided walk through the rainforest or, for the thrill-seekers, a daring 1,017-foot (310-m) zipline descent for a more direct ride.

Next, your expert instructors make sure you are comfortable with your surroundings before you learn the craft of river tubing. Ride down the rapids in your circular vehicle, build up your confidence with the tube, and take the opportunity to brave the rapids on your own.

Slide down the rocky waterway all the way to the entrance of the glowworm cave, where you experience the magnificent insects' light shining out in the canyon's shadows. Admire the unique creatures with a warming drink before you leave the cave for your final activity—the cliff jump. Leap into the cool stream and head back to the Greymouth base, where you can soak in a hot spa while reflecting on your incredible day.
