Beautiful views and spectacular scenarios you will discover in this cave. The "unknow"river allowed us to have a boat trip into the cave. It was a nice experience for adults and children...

Impressive cave system, very well equipped and amazing guide Luciano. Definitely worth the trip if you are in Cilento. Remember to bring a sweater! Temperature in the cave is ~15C!

Don't asume you will enter the cave anytime, better book your visit because there are only a few tours/day, last entrance is around 15:30, opens at 10.00. Just give them a call. 1 TIKET = 10 EURO, PARKING 3EURO CAR, 5EURO- CAMPER
