Venado Caves Tour

I was skeptical about this since I am not a very athletic person. But it wasn't very difficult. The guide will help you a lot along the way. You will be confident and ready to explore after you crawled through the very first narrow space filled with water. Once in a life time experience, and I recommend it.

All our Tour guides were amazing. Jason was just great. Just simply amazing. Very nice and knowledgeable.

This is a must do! Awesome experience!

We really enjoyed this unique adventure and would do it again! Our guide was so nice and informative.

Tour was good, the guide was enthusiastic and kept us entertained the whole time.

Steven our guide made this a great time, he pointed out, explain and showed his passion to the caves, These caves I believe are under estimated on how wonderful they are. Yes, you sure did get wet but it does not bother you after seeing everything around you, this was best excursion I have ever done. I am so glad we bought a water proof camera. While we met other travelers along the way, we highly recommended the caves.

A very cool experience being so deep below the surface!! Not difficult to do but at the same time challenging! Certainly not for those who don't like tight spaces.

Raul was an excellant tour guide, going out of his way to make sure that we had the full experience.

Tour guide was amazing he had so much knowledge about the caves and the surrounding area and the caves themselves were incredible

This was challenging and scary but totally amazing. Even though we didn't see any eyeless fish, we saw bats, climbed an indoor waterfall, and saw fossils. It was wonderful. Edgar was great!!!

This tour was my favorite by far due to the nature of the cave exploration. I enjoyed how this genuinely felt like cave exploring - crawling into tight spaces and splashing around in underground rivers. I don't feel like this was described as such on the website though. I actually am glad of the surprise but I know a lot of people who wouldn't share my enthusiasm.

This tour was exciting and very different when compared to the United States. The tour guide was very professional, very knowledgeable, and personable.

I loved these caves. Due to the timing of our booking, we ended up with a private tour. Jose was very patient with us as we took our times looking around the caves and really taught us some very interesting things about the bats and geologic activity that formed the caves.

I definitely got my scare factor on...loved it.

Our son enjoyed it very much. The tour guide Jairo was a great and very knowledgeable about the cave and surrounding area. He saw many bats, a spider, and a pseudo scorpion. Jairo said that they also often see snakes, centipedes, and the occasional mouse or fish, though he didn't see any when he was there. There were some narrow openings to crawl through, as well as some steep climbs. This was noted on the website and he had no problems maneuvering through them. Since a river flows through most of the cave, he did get wet and muddy as anticipated. He was provided rubber boots and a helmet at the caves. There is a small waterfall he could climb. He was lucky as apparently not everyone gets to see it. He had a blast and highly recommended this tour.

this tour was our favorite. loved our tour guide. Im sorry i cant remember his name. really good. best guide we encountered.

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.
