    We've been before and it was so good, we wanted to go again and it was just as good. We did the abseiling, ziplining, cycling and the supreme tour of the cave (apparently there are different routes) Our guide was brilliant and we were in a group of 9 which was just the right size. Area being protected properly which was nice to see. Surprised we had to ask TUI about this as it wasn't advertised, only a smaller version of it. Highly recommended.

    All of the employees were very nice and helpful. They really treated us well! The price for the photos was outrageous! Too expensive and now we have no photos of our adventures. Very disappointing.

    Although the experience was very good we were let down by TUI staff. Firstly they 'forgot' to book the transport so we missed our trip, it was then re-booked for later and had to pay the travel costs then apply for a refund, why? Once there we were advised that we could not do the 'plus' part of the experience as it is only done in the morning slot. We are awaiting a refund for this even though we were promised by the TUI Rep that she would copy us in on the email we have not received any notifi
