Tickets & Arrival Tips
Buy Ticket Online NowDo I need to buy tickets in advance?
Advanced tickets can be purchased online but are not required and they do sell out quickly!
Can I buy tickets on-site?
Yes, "walk-in" tickets are available daily.
Important Weekend & Holiday Tip:
We highly recommend arriving by noon to purchase walk-in tickets. Arriving later in the day increases your risk of long wait times, and logistically, you may not have enough time to experience both tours.

Testimonial
This impromptu day trip was one that my family and I will not soon forget! The cave and the river throughout was absolutely breathtaking and is definitely our best family trip so far! And our guide was great. He was very informative with a sense of humor. If you ever have the opportunity to go, it really is worth it!!! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
