There, the second part of the trip goes on, you have to seat in a motorboat to get to your final destination.

The appearance of the stalactites and stalagmites please the observer.

The waterway inside the cavern is accessible for the ride for about 500 meters. Even though the river is a lot longer, for your own protection is not navigable along its total path. The entire grotto has not being entirely explored since there are some parts that are completely sank under water.

The trip itself is incredible but you get yet more thrilled towards the end of the ride. You get to a small tropical forest where there is a little waterfall and it seems like the ferry is going to fall over. This, of course is just a joke that these naughty guides like to play on you. Your safety is a priority and they would not joke about it if they thought they were putting you in any danger.
