Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

I took the 1km walk inside the cave. Local Guide who accompanies inside had a lot of knowledge of the place. For those who like tours with historical context of the place, geological and the like will like.
For those who like tours to only have water to bathe, do not go this one.

In all of nature's wonders there's nothing like caving, but of all Caving there's nothing like Caving in Lapa Doce. The professional guidance of Claudia Lima is the best and with her you'll experience the real beauty of Brazil's most beautiful natural wonder: the Cave of Lapa Doce! Totally recommended!!!

Not that it's too expensive but we learned the trap of the 'passeios' they sell to you in lençois. If you go there on your own you pay to enter the private property and you get a guide for $30 Reals ($10USD). Huge cave and we had a humorous guide.

Parte of a much larger cave system, the Lapa doce is an impressive site. It doesn’t take much skill for someone, even kids, without disabilities to go down a very steep track at the beginning. Once you enter the cave you can appreciate the size and scale of it. The path is well marked and the many stalagmite, stalactites and column formations impressive. Take your time to appreciate the deep darkness and complete silence if you can turn of your torches for a few seconds.

This place is amazing to observe the nature and discover more about fossils and paleontology. There is a slippery surface, so take care when you’re visiting this place.

The 9th largest cave in the world. Amazing, very well preserved and a very cool guide crew, it was truly a fantastic experience.
Would strongly recommend visiting it during any stay in Chapada Diamantina. It's by far the most interesting cave I've seen.

Beautiful, big waterfall. Great food regional buffet as well. Google Maps directions were off for me, lucky there is a huge sign with a big arrow pointing to the correct dirty road.

We have seen some amazing caves (US, Ireland, China, Thailand, etc.), and yet each cave has it's own magic. This one has some great formations, but what impressed us most was the scale of the cave (and the sandy floor).

Olá, qual o valor da entrada na gruta para duas pessoas?
Written 26 July 2018
Fala, pessoal e Jean M!
Vi o comentário do Jean e o de outras pessoas falando sobre necessidade de entrar com guia na gruta Lapa Doce e confesso que fiquei confusa. Pelo que o Jean escreveu, ao pagar o ingresso da gruta (R$ 30,00), já dá direito a ir com o guia local da fazenda, não sendo necessário levar um guia de fora, certo? É isso mesmo? Porque li vários comentários de pessoas dizendo que é obrigatório entrar com o guia. Estou fechando com uma guia de Lençois que faz tours de 1 dia e neste inclui o passeio na Lapa Doce, daí fiquei na dúvida agora... Alguém poderia me ajudar a esclarecer?

Lugar Prime da Chapada Diamantina, desde o começo do ecoturismo este local se adequa ao seu público. Destaque para sua travessia, onde é possível observar toda exuberancia de uma caverna calcária. Muito especial!!
