The glowworms were tiny but pretty cool. The experience overall- beautiful boat ride, walk through the caves, silence in the pitch-black cave- was absolute magic.

The guide was a 20ish very bored young man that obviously didn't like his summer job, not the tourists and went through the motions with minimal effort: guess what ? We didn't like him either and he should look for another job instead of spoiling our holidays !

An unique cave. I have never seen this before. Unfortunetly photographing is not allowed in the whole cave. So the second question about photos is a little bit weird. The cave is awesom. Don't miss the chance to visit
