A Journey Back in Time

Our adventure began with a warm welcome from our driver, who picked us up right from our hotel in Salou. As a family, we always appreciate the convenience of such services, especially when traveling with kids. The drive to the Coves de l’Espluga was filled with engaging stories about Spain’s rich history and hidden gems. Our driver was not just a chauffeur but a storyteller, weaving tales that captured the imagination of my children and set the stage for the prehistoric wonders we were about to explore.

Upon arrival, the sight of the caves was awe-inspiring. The entrance seemed to whisper secrets of ancient times, inviting us to step into a world that existed 37,000 years ago. The kids were buzzing with excitement, their imaginations running wild as they pondered what life might have been like for the early humans who once called these caves home.

Exploring the Depths

Inside the caves, we were greeted by our guide, whose passion for history was infectious. The tour was intimate, with a small group that allowed for a personalized experience. As we ventured deeper into the 600-meter stretch of the cave, the guide shared fascinating insights into the lives of the prehistoric communities that once thrived here.

The audioguide, available in multiple languages, was a fantastic addition, allowing each of us to explore at our own pace. My children, ever curious, peppered the guide with questions, all of which were answered with patience and enthusiasm. It was a joy to see them so engaged, learning about the Paleolithic era in such a tangible way.
