Must do cave experience! - Impressive cave experience, you can have the guided tour for 3,000 drams and it takes aprox 30 minutes. It was a very interesting and different experience, the guide was very knowledgeable, great English communication, explaining the formations of the cave, showing interesting findings and is open for questions, all while having a positive vibe and great attitude.
Inside the cave is really cold, so is recommended to take a jacket, but if you forget they will provide a blanket :)
