Start your Evening Glowworm Tour at Waimarino alongside the Wairoa River. Enjoy delicious refreshments while watching the sun set over the rolling hills. At twilight your guides will lead you into the calm waters to discover the magic of the enchanting Glowworm canyon.
This tour is great fun allowing you to appreciate the beautiful scenery, birdlife and glow worms from your seat in the Big Kanu.
Taking place at Lake McLaren, it is only a 25 minute drive from Tauranga’s CBD. Launch the Big Kanu from the lakes edge and paddle together through the calm waters towards the head of the lake.
A narrow, high-sided canyon is the home to thousands of glow worms scattered like the night stars. Learn about the life cycle and peculiarities of the glow worms from our knowledgeable guides. The tour departs once a day before sunset so you are able to admire the luminescent glow in full darkness.
