Great value for what we got! I would normally dock a star for communication, but that kind of issue is SO common around here, it's not like the competition is likely to do better, and again, for the money, I can't complain. But here are my tips for this excursion if you decide to go: - Yes, it will be VERY muddy. They bring you purposely along muddy areas for the fun of it, so wear old clothes and washable shoes. Also put your items in a waterproof bag (we brought freebie vinyl knapsacks my kids were given from old soccer leagues) - Wear those ugly "river sandals" for the cave swim. We all bought pairs at Wal-Mart for $8 each before the trip... they have hard soles and rubber or nylon straps, so you can wear them on any surface but also in the water without them coming off. The bottom of the cave pool is rough and rocky. But amazing! - At the cave, do NOT let the guys with the parrot get you do photos with them. It's a trick. You'll see other visitors with a parrot on their arm or shoulder, and think, "oh cool, a free perk!" It's not. The parrot owners offer to take your photo using your phone, and you're happy till they take back the parrot and demand $20 PER PERSON who was in the photo. My weak husband forked over $40 for him and my son while my daughter and I were in the cave swim, but when I found out what happened, I went over and in Spanish chastised them and insisted they return the money, which they finally did. The tour operators apologized for it (the parrot dudes don't work for them, of course). If you really want the photo, tell them at the outset, "I will give you $5 to take a few photos of my family with the parrot" so that there are no arguments after. - They will give you water bottles halfway through! - Bring your own "gaiter" style mask with ear loops. It's much comfier than the $5 bandanas they will try to sell you at the beginning. Sunglasses and masks are a must because of the dust and mud flying around. - The transportation to/from your resort is an open-air bus. It's a fun, loud ride but not the safest! - The buggies are HARD to steer. You will need good arm strength. - You will get free samples of hot chocolate milk, coffee and the local liquor, "mamajuana." Sweet! Also some kind of bread. I REALLY recommend this excursion. For us, we wanted only something half-day because food is all-inclusive at our resort, so I didn't want something that included paying for another meal. I wanted to get a taste (literally) of the local culture, and do some amazing adventures. This trip delivers! -

You have to be up by 6:30am for your driver to pick you up from hotel but it is well worth it. Pedro was an awesome driver. Be sure to bring gratuity,it’s the only thing that’s not included as the host (workers) will be taking beautiful pics, selling fresh coconuts n pineapples as well as massages. (They work for small tips) Lunch was good enough for me but I would advise one to eat before leaving. You could ask for as much food as you like when getting the lunch that’s included. Good vibes and great time!!! We will definitely be going back again soon.
