“Caving Experience”
There are numerous positive reviews for this 'Experience', so here's another. A really memorable morning - more challenging that I thought it would be - quite physically demanding which I didn't mind, except that my body is still aching a day later! Highly competent guide/instructor in Becca who, in a pretty crucial role, inspired confidence, using her powers of persuasion to get us to do things we would never do by ourselves alone. Pleased to have achieved it - (especially as a 76 year old.)

“Amazing”
one of the best experience days I have had .... all the more remarkable by the sheer beauty of the lit up caverns as well as the crawling, abseiling, climbing and zip wiring activities. Superb, experienced and passionate guide.
“Best experience ever”
Booked this for my 40th birthday as something to mark the occasion. It surpassed all expectations and was one of the best things I’ve done. Absolutely loved it. My instructor Becca was fab and I never once felt like I couldn’t do it. She made me feel completely at ease working through some of the narrow routes in the caves and had an incredible knowledge of the history. I want to do it again and will definitely be back!
