Excellent tour and Great Operator - We booked our tour several months out and as we moved closer there was great communication. After the police shut down the caves due to bad weather they provided other options for us. I the meantime we had one of our party of four that became ill with stomach flu and could not attend. Without issue they refunded his single ticket. Brilliant customer service. The tour did not disappoint with two great guides on board. Thank you for the memories.

Stunning views - The caves were stunning. Check in was easy, the boat ride was great. The guides were nice, but we were in the front of the boat and it was hard to hear them.

The boat ride itself was... - The boat ride itself was very good, the Guide was more of a boat driver than a guide. We were looking forward to learning more about the geology history, the water in the area, and it was basically, look at the rock shaped like an elephant. He also did not provide appropriate seating related to peoples heights. We’re both very short, and it was very difficult for us to see anything because we were in the very back of the boat.
