For the price you can't say anything but to be honest it's pretty boring

A really nice experience! I wish the cave is deeper and the lake is longer! 😍

The tubing part is quite short but enjoyable, nice for younger kids and they provide a life jacket and headtorch. The walk through the cave was impressive with many formations and big caverns, it has a path too but some low ceiling points to crouch under. We also had the cave to ourselves, apart from the huge spiders… your torch will pick up their eyes shining, as well as the sparkling minerals on the cave walls.

There are two caves inside, one can be walked, and the other can be floated with a swimming ring for about 100 meters and then walked back around. Buy a ticket outside, it costs 40,000 per cave, and you will be asked which one you want to buy, or both. The walking cave is small and can be walked in about five minutes, but it is relatively easy to walk and is suitable for the elderly or those who are not good at climbing. Young people recommend climbing the large cave in Lagoon No. 1, which should be the largest cave here (young people recommend buying the Floating River Cave). Another recommendation is to play in the lazy river cave. Pulling the rope to float through the cave will be a bit tiring, but it is acceptable and suitable for everyone.
