Visit the cave but don't do tour
The cave is huge! We decided to take the 1 hour tour and as much as the info provided was interesting the cave itself within the tour was a let down,the real beauty of the cave can be seen from the entrance and walking through the cave without paying a cent. Highly recommend visiting the cave but don't waste your time doing the tour. The little cafe outside the cave does wonderful food.

Only French speaking tour available
The Grotto is amazing and well worth a visit but the tour is only in French, there is no English tour available, so you do not know much about the cave. You need sensible shoes, as there are lots of steps. Friendly staff and good value. Great cafe nearby too.
