About this activity
The tour starts with a two-hour ride to Sabang, a short boat ride from the wharf to Sabang Beach, the entrance of the Underground River, and the actual boat ride going inside the cave.

Each group is assigned a boatman with paddle boat equipped with a search light. You will be given an audio device with earphones (choose from English, Chinese (Mandarin), Korean, Japanese, Italian, Spanish, Russian, or Filipino) providing a running commentary while viewing the formations inside the pitch-dark recesses. A most impressive area inside would be the 'cathedral', towering some 800 meters in height.
