This is an overly-sanitised humourless tour of a very historic factory.
Over-zealous health-and-safety rules has meant you cannot get to any of the interesting bits of the factory, and the need to appeal to guests from all over the world means that the use of language is dull by the guides. Do not expect jokes or banter.
To add insult all of the bits and pieces I bought from the shop at the end had "Made in Australia" written on them.

This is a gem of a day out.
The site is superb, the trip is exciting and well-run, and I cannot think of anything that could make it better day out if you want to get a taste of this activity. Safety is top of the list of the companies mantra, and our guide (Anna, who makes a wetsuit look great) really made it a day to remember!

Superb!
A great, well-balanced day out! One of the best things we did during our month in the South Island, and we did a lot of stuff!
The team work VERY hard to make sure you have a good time. The cave which they use (they have sole access) is accessed by a fun railway, and it provides the right amount of fun whilst being informative. The glow-worms are stunning and the final float down the river was a lovely end to the trip.
Isn't it nice when an activity INCLUDES the photos in the trip, well done these folks!
