We lucked out that we didn't have to wait to experience the underground river, but we have heard of very long wait times. The cave audio tour is fun and tLunch was a nice, big buffet and the zipline experience was so fun! I am usually scared of such an activity and I had a great time, it was managed very well.

The underground river was a very unique tour. Riding in a truly philippino boat paddled by ou Philippine guide was amazing. You are in a cave that has enough water to ride a boat. The cave is spectacular and my wife and I highly recommend this tour.

DO NOT BUY the zip line it’s a scam . You will have to walk uphill for 2miles (4.7km) the whole walk to get to the zip line is 40 minutes and the you also have to walk back. Their will be no water during this whole hike uphill though the hot forest. Then you literally have to swim through the ocean back. They do not tell you this so many people where in regular clothes and had their phones. I was bitten by mosquitoes and had wet clothes for the whole car ride back (2hrs) . The cave tour was fine as advertised and my guide was perfect and very nice !
Good experience, if you have not done an underground river tour.

Enjoyable experience. The tour had to wait for others who did not update the operator of changes in pick up points and plans. Overall, it was still a good experience and operator showed a lot of patience in managing the changes in participants.
