Not a bad experience. Check that it is low tide before booking.

Probably wouldn’t do again. We booked this thinking it would be a nice way of getting inside the cave and seeing the coastline. The coastline was nice but we couldn’t go into the main cave because it was high tide which we didn’t know. Make sure to check this first before booking.

Operator response

Thank you for your feedback. We’re sorry to hear the experience did not fully meet your expectations. Just to clarify, the cave that could not be entered on the day was not the main cave, but one of the caves along the route. Access to certain caves depends entirely on sea and tide conditions, and for safety reasons it is not always possible to enter them. Safety always comes first, and our guides will only enter caves when conditions allow it safely. Even so, our goal is always to provide the best possible experience and show as much of the coastline as conditions allow. We appreciate your comment and will take it into account to make this information even clearer for future guests.

Was disappointing unfortunately. Pretty boring.

It was quite a boring tour. You go through 2 rocks, you can hardly call it a cave. And furthermore you get 3 stories about beaches. Had expected more of it unfortunately.

Het spijt ons te horen dat de tour niet aan uw verwachtingen voldeed. Onze route omvat meerdere grotten, rotsformaties en verschillende punten langs de kust, en onze gidsen proberen de ervaring altijd interactief en informatief te maken met verhalen over de omgeving, stranden en lokale geschiedenis. Jammer dat dit voor u niet zo is overgekomen, maar we waarderen uw feedback zeker.
