Great Family Outing - This was the perfect mini-getaway during my family’s stay in Valencia. The cave tour was smooth and well organized, with a boat ride followed by a walkable section and ending with a final boat ride. (It isn’t strenuous at all, and you won’t get wet.) After exiting the caves, we had 30 minutes to walk around and explore the shops and cafes. Our guide was super friendly and professional. All in all, we had a lovely afternoon. Highly recommend!

Absolutely amazing. - Absolutely amazing! We went with our kids and they loved it too! The tour was full of fascinating information and offered spectacular views all throughout the cave. The boat ride itself was smooth and peaceful, and the guides shared so many interesting facts that made the experience even better. If you’re looking for something unique and unforgettable, this cave river tour is definitely worth it! Our bus ride and guide was amazing too. Sent so many recommendations of the city and food!!

The hidden river - It is not allowed to take pictures during the tour inside during the boat ride. Be careful to keep your head down during certain points along the way. Enjoy the visit because it will definitely be a unique experience.

"A journey that resonated with heart and love in the back of the cave" - I visited the San José caves in La Valle de Usho during the day with her, and it was a more moving experience than I had imagined. It's not just a cave, it's a special place where nature, history and a bit of adventure come together. Highlights include the boat ride along Europe's longest underground river. Silently sliding across the water, beneath the fantastically illuminated ceiling of stalactites, is a beauty beyond description. You can then walk along the safe promenade to admire the impressive rock formations from many angles. She was reluctant at first, saying, "I can't believe it's a cave...", but when she exits, she says, "It's not what I thought! It was really beautiful," he said. Surrounded by the tranquility of the basement and the natural beauty of form, we were able to enjoy our time together, forgetting our daily routines. She said she had comfortable shoes and a light jacket because it was cool inside the cave. Open your heart and let the mysteries of nature take you in. It was a memorable moment for a couple. #San José Cave #Lavalledeucho #Couple trip #Daytime cave exploration #Nature in Spain #Castellion #Time for us

It was OK! - The cave felt like a Disney ride; not eventful. The drive was a bit long for reward at the end. Our boat ride guide was great and spoke three languages, and made for long explanations in multiple languages.

Mostly a transportation to and from the caves - Our driver was very courteous and friendly. He agreed to drop us off close to our hotel. He seemed to be knowledgeable about the area but yet didn’t tell us anything about the caves, their history or geology. We also had an additional person from the tour company riding with us. Not sure what her role was but her presence made the van more crowded.
