Venado Caves Tour

"Definitely not for the claustrophobic! We were warned ahead of time of how tight the spaces might get but neither of us are claustrophobic. The tour was just great! This is a real cave--no sidewalks or lights; just you and the bats! Definitely be prepared to get wet!"

"Very cool! I've gone into lots of caves but generally with lights. This was much more fun with the helmet, lights and being able to see all the creatures. They warned us not to take our cameras so we didn't and it was a good decision. They took the pictures and it was well worth the cost - both for the photos and the saving of our cameras from getting wet."

"Unusual, challenging, educational. The only advise we could give on this trip is to make sure people know that they will be showering after the tour. There was no soap, towels or hot water. That was okay with us because it was that great of a tour. Some people may have a problem with it. We did take a change of clothes. Thank goodness."

"Loved our guide, Pedro Flores Suarez. Very knowledgeable and friendly. The caves were amazing! Although this is a tour for the fit--thankfully we both were. "

"Edgar our guide picked us up at our hotel and we drove the 40 or so mins out to the caves, on the way he was a wealth of information and answered all our many questions with great authority and enthusiasm. The three of us were the only people at the caves so it was a very private tour. Edgar provided us with a hard hat, mask and torch (flashlight) each and off we went into the depths of darkness the caves provide. During the next hour or so,we wriggled through a hole which we never thought we would get through, aptly named the "Birth canal" scaled walls, crawled through tiny tunnels half filled with water, got soaking wet and muddy, it was absolutly BRILLIANT!"

"I enjoyed the tour, but the only thing that I would say is that the cave is narrow and they should be in fairly good shape to be able to climb and maneuver through the cave. A large individual would not be able to go into the cave, and should consider this before booking."
