I wanted to see the real prehistoric caves of Spain, and this tour was the real thing not just a representation. Our driver picked us up right outside our hotel. We had a pleasant conversation with Mercedes, who spoke very good English, and told us all about the caves history even before we got there. We visited two caves. They were very dark, be sure, and wear good shoes because it’s wet, damp and slippery. Our first tour guide only spoke Spanish, but with the help of one of our tour companions, he was able to translate what was being said. Our second guide “translated” with gestures and broken English, she was a professional who took pride in her job. She was phenomenal. It is hard to describe the feeling of seeing Paleolithic art on cave walls over 38,000 years old. We were in awe and thrilled! I am sure they will restrict visitors to these cave wonders in the future, please go see it now while you can!
