Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

Absolutely fabulous caving experience with Raglan Rock! I went with my 8yr old boy who was excited but nervous. Our guide made him so confident and comfortable with her expertise and support that we had a wonderful time and he was able to get into even the highest and smallest of cave spaces in the tour.
I had no idea it would be so spectacular or adventurous. We had a private guide for the 2 of us (even though we only booked a group tour).
10/10 would recommend. I’d bring a water bottle and a change of clothes. Wear shoes that can get wet and are easy to walk in. It’s a bit of a hot hike up a few hills before you reach the caves but it’s 100-% worth it.

The trad climbing day run by Meg was absolutely awesome. Amazing location, knowledgeble instructor who was flexible about customising the experience to give me exactly what I was hiping for. I'd definitely recommend this to others.

What a seriously fun adventure! Harry and Ollie were super knowledgeable and we felt safe (despite the challenge's!) Having never abseiled before this was an incredible experience- abseiling down and climbing up waterfalls in a beautiful patch of NZ bush.

Myself, hubby and friend had the great pleasure of completing a sunset glow worm canyoning adventure with Ellie this weekend. Such a fantastic experience! Ellie’s calm and encouraging demeanour made us all feel safe, secure and empowered to abseil down a number of waterfalls and rock climb up another. Ending with a cup of home brewed kawakawa tea in a glow worm canyon. Would highly recommend to families, couples, small groups and anyone who has a sense of adventure.

We cannot thank Harry and Stacie enough for such an epic adventure! Both guides provided a very safe, fun environment where each individual child had the best time.
We decided on caving for the day. I cannot express how amazing this was. We were all absolutely blown away with the experience of being beneath the ground in the caves. The children were all able to push ourselves mentally through anything that came our way thanks to the reassurance from both the guides. The adventure was beyond all expectations. Each child left the day feeling proud of what they had achieved. We cannot recommend Raglan Rock enough, and will definitely be back for another adventure. Thanks guys!

Back for a second round with Harry trying to learn some very basic skills in trad climbing. His patience and ability to instruct was awesome especially considering he was having to deal with two senior citizens (72 & 62). Hang on forgotten why I am writing this! Just kidding. We were made to feel safe and more importantly felt there was a sincere effort to make it feel like Harry was there for us. Thanks again for another epic outing and experience and getting us home in one piece. Highly recommended.

It was a great adventure but the most of all, very educative, getting to know many native plants, their name and characteristics and enjoying beautiful stream sceneries. Great guide sharing local legends and prey to the water protection to climb the waterfall. New experiences crossing personal borders in very safe way in gorgeous nature and waters.

I took a group of Deaf clients and we had a great day out Canyoning and Rock Climbing. Harry was a great guide and we all had a great day.
The Canyoning was great and I’m not a fan of water usually. The rock climbing tested everyone’s abilities to achieve great results.

First time rock climbing and what an amazing time we had with Raglan Rock! Travis was a very experienced and patient guide. He enhanced our trip by making my daughter and I feel so comfortable, his passion and enthusiasm pushed us outside our comfort zones, getting the mist out of our trip. Fantastic value for money, great day out, would highly recommend!

What a fantastic experience. Awesome adventure with our great guide, Julia. She was very knowledgeable, had great pronunciation, we definitely felt in safe hands. Raglan Rock was an awesome company, from the bookings, communication and friendliness.
The canyoning was such a heart racing experience, a very good challenge. Enjoyed every minute of it.
