Overview

Not only visiting famous caves but also getting an action-packed experience. You will have chance to do harnessed zip-lining over a turquoise river, swim into the mouth of the cave (life jackets included), walk through the dark with only the head torch on your mining helmet to illuminate the way, have mud fight in the buoyant mud baths deep in the cave and join in outdoor activities. You also have chance to reach to the longest dry cave in Asia - Paradise Cave. With naturally primitive features, Paradise Cave looks like a landscape painting; making it a natural wonder many have enjoyed since its opening in 2010.
