Arrange an authorized guide
Check who provides the cave visit and whether guide arrangements or entry costs are included. Follow the guide’s instructions throughout the visit.
Ask about conditions and accessibility
Before travelling, ask about stairs, uneven or wet surfaces, lighting, walking time and any mobility considerations. Choose footwear suitable for the confirmed conditions.
Allow time for the wider route

Keep plans flexible
Weather, access and local arrangements may affect a visit. Reconfirm close to your date and have an alternative activity in mind.
