Brilliant!

We were so lucky to have the grumpy owner as our guide and we had him all to ourselves πŸ™‚ This very passionate man made this fantastic experience even more! The absail and the climb back up the rocks was super fun and we would have paid just for that .. once in the cave under the glow of these beautiful creatures we spent time breathing in the wonder and chatting with what felt like our new best friend. All our questions were answered which made for an enriching and informative time. This is up on our top things to do list and we encourage you to go with an open heart and open ears follow the instructions and be kind to your wonderful guide and you will come away a richer person πŸ™‚ Thanks so much Loved it

Great little adventure with (older) kids

We had an exciting morning with Simon, our guide, who was very friendly and made us feel at ease with everything, including our 11-year-old. The set-up and safety measures are also excellent, would recommend for anyone looking for a little bit of adventure.

Good beginners trip

This trip is great if you're a complete beginner and want an introduction to caving. We have done a few caving trips previously so found it basic. Our guides, Kieran and Will, were very good, making sure everything was safe and were knowledgeable about the caves. Unfortunately we didn't do any wire traversing as advertised and the trip felt short. We only had 9 photos taken of the whole trip - only 7 clear ones, but they wanted $25 for these - far too expensive!
