The black abyss tour was absolutely incredible! For something that I'd been looking forward to for so long it's surprising that it actually exceeded expectations. The staff were all fabulous and accommodating even when we were late to the location. It doesn't hurt that our guides George and Mitch were also 🔥.

The whole experience was awesome. My son from Australia also loved it. The hliwworm show was way better than I remembered from the last time I did it.

The guides were not only knowledgeable but they were also so much fun! We had a very small group and they adapted the tour to fit what we would most enjoy and took a lot of amazing pictures! The Blackwater rafting itself was so much fun, even in the winter! Exploring caves, jumping into the water, and floating through the darkness, our guides made us feel safe the whole time. Thank you, Burge and Lydia!
