Huge cave system and bamboo raft ride. - Beautiful scenery arriving at the caves. Stream full of fish. Need to hire a guide with a lantern to guide you through the cave. Then have a bamboo raft ride to the end of the cave. Very dark, only the lantern for light, so ,hard to take good photos. At the end of the cave, there is lots of light, so photos there are very good. Depart raft and climb some stairs, and walk around part of the cave. Very enjoyable.
