Amazing eperience. 18th birthday present for my Daughter and she loved it. Guides were very friendly and informative. Would definatly do more trips with this group. Looking at TumuTumu tubing next.

A great time had by all. The attraction has it all, You start off by being lowered into a black hole, then quickly come to a bend, not good if you are claustrophobic, but with a bit of pre-advice managed to get round it.
