Amazing experience, totally different from a standard cave tour. You will be a real speleologist for 2h, swimmimg in the river at the entrance of the cave, walking in the water in the deep, and with a final mud treatmant. Thanks a lot for out guide (David) who was been fantastic with us, kindly and available for every request. I recommend the experience to everyone.
David our guide was fabulous. He was incredibly patient and full of smiles... We were not the easiest customers today, but he made our trip memorable. He was able to adapt the agenda due to the heavy rain, and we had a great time. The caves are impressive, photos don't do them justice!
