Lovely - The tour guide was really nice, we got loads of informations about the trip and he spoke so many languages. The driver was great too, the condition of the coach bus is great, super clean and very comfortable. The drach caves are definitely something to see, the opera was amazing and the pearl museum was so good too. The only thing we would change would be maybe to give visitors an hour extra to have time to enjoy the experience. Inside the caves you had the possibility to have a short boat ride but because it eas so crowded and so busy, we had to choose between waiting in the long queue or go to the pearl museum, so unfortunately we didn't have time for the boat ride. The tour guide did advise us to take the first seats in the cave but people are going in front of you, push and so on, so if you have any kind o manners you would end up at the end on the line. Lovely experience though 🥰

Loved seeing the cave and... - Loved seeing the cave and pearl factory. The guide was good. The tour was suppose to be 6 hrs and it was only 2hrs and 45min. That is my only complaint.

Maximise profit rather than quality of the year experience - There’s definitely room for improvement.
This is a very tourist-heavy experience, and unfortunately they seem to admit as many visitors per session as possible.
1. Arrive early for your allocated time slot. We got there about 10 minutes beforehand and still found ourselves behind roughly 100–150 people in the queue.
2. To move around comfortably and properly take in the surroundings, the organisers would ideally limit capacity to around half of what they currently allow. As it stands, you’ll often need to wait just to take a decent photo or even to walk through certain areas.
That said, the classical concert at the end is a lovely addition. The acoustics inside the cave are impressive, and the musicians are excellent.
3. At the end, there’s an optional short boat ride. Be aware that this does not take you outside, which isn’t clearly explained. You may also need to queue again for anywhere between 10 and 60 minutes, just to travel around 30 metres. In most cases, it’s quicker and easier to walk back the same way and avoid the wait, especially as there are only a few boats operating with limited capacity.

Poor travel experience - Did not really have a pleasant experience on this tour with the big bus. The bus came 25min late to pick us up from the meeting point. The tour of the caves and the concert were a great experience. The transport side of this tour is very much a let down and disappointment. Recommend finding own transport to get to the caves.

Confusing meet point - Please be aware, they do not tell you WHO to meet they give you a location on a board walk filled with tour buses and hundreds of people with no info on the tour operators name or company etc. 0 parking in the meet point highly recommended to take a taxi we made the mistake of bringing the rental we arrived 15 minutes early looking for parking driving in circles , one of our party members attempted to locate the tour operator asking numerous buses no one seemed to be able
To point us in the right direction. Called Viator customer support they called and emailed the operator with no response , I also messaged and called operator no response. After speaking with customer service and attempting to atleast get a new ticket date as I feel it was an unfair and unclear meet point . Your company refused a new date sadly, so basically they got 300 cad for free what a bad way to run a business I totally understand if we were late but we could not find the operator amongst the chaos. To the operator you should make it very clear who and what you’re meeting bus color and company name , when I called customer service at first I asked numerous times what company am I looking for they couldn’t give me an answer. Not bashing this company just giving my experience as an honest customer. Thanks for the read god bless.

Scam, cold, moist - I think we expected something different… false advertising in other words. The cave was cool and really cold (being jacket please), the boat ride was 15 seconds, 16 if your lucky… also really crowded. Hotdog outside was good, but not the crepes (get at your own risk). Souvenir shop was absolute scam… prices are hiked, magnets were ugly. It was okay.

Totally misleading - A group of 8 of us took this Viator excursion, paying. The tour was advertised with live music, a rowboat ride across Lake Martel, and a visit to a Mallorca pearl factory, but it didn’t live up to expectations. The cave was beautiful, but the live music lasted only 5 minutes, and the rowboat ride was just 50 feet with a long wait over an hour long. We never reached the pearl factory, which we were looking forward to. Pickup was inconvenient, requiring a taxi to a different location than listed. Though the bus driver kindly dropped us off at the port. The excursion involved lots of walking, including uphill terrain, making it unsuitable for those with mobility issues or young children. Overall, the experience was not as advertised and didn’t meet our expectations. It’s not recommended for families or people with physical limitations. Save your money for something better.
