Save your money and book the boat and cave tour separately. Our 2:00 trip yesterday started with an hour long wait in the hotel gathering room where they took attendance 3 times. Then we had another ~45 minute group walk to the boat. The actual boat trip was wonderful but when we got back we were told our tickets to the cave tour were for 5:20. Many started leaving the group at this point but we held out and asked if we could just get those passes (which were included in or fee) but we couldn’t. We actually got access to the cave museum at 5:00 and tried to skip that but when we managed to we arrived to a very long elevator line to the cave and at that point waiting any longer would have impacted our dinner plans so we bailed. Bottom line the cost was more than double than booking directly and also took 2 1/2 hours longer than it would have if we had done so. Only bright spot was our guide Dexter, but I felt he was just doing his best to make the best out of a poorly managed tour set up. Book at your own risk.
Well worth the time.

The tour requires a lot of walking. They show the tour as being 4 hours, but ours lasted 2.5 hours. I feel like we paid for a much longer experience, but was shorted. Our tour guide Dexter was friendly and funny. He was a wreath of knowledge our the area.
Fun tour, great guide

If someone pays 100$ for a tour they need to skip the line., also.. it needs to be timed better. There was a 2hr gap between the boat ride and the caves… it should be streamlined so that everything is seamless and there is no waiting period. I didn’t have time to wait. Now I have to come back in order to experience the caves and pay again.
