Dear Guests,

Green cave entrance tickets are not included in the price!

Our departure time is really important for the quality of the tour, so we ask you friendly to be 10 minutes before departure at the departure location. Then we have time to do the check-in and boarding. We will leave with the boat exactly on the departure time that is written on your voucher. If we are leaving 5 or 10 minutes later, we have a waiting line at the Blue Cave of a minimum of 2 hours, and that affects our tour a lot. In case of getting too late, there will be no refund.
