Do not take this excursion. I had taken the same type of excursion a few years ago but it was a much more enjoyable experience. Eight of us were picked by a van and transferred to another open air van on the side of a busy highway with no explanation. At the location we were encouraged to pay over $100 additional to upgrade our experience and I guess we should have taken the deal. The buggys were constantly breaking down and tires were routinely going flat. My wife and I were put in front of a young man who was visibly intoxicated and continued to drink during the entire trip. He ran into a ditch before we even got off their property and they still let him drive. He was put behind my wife and I in line and rammed into the back of us three times before we reached our first destination. The last time he hit us so hard that we rammed into the buggy in front of us. After that the workers kept him away from others as much as possible. For our cave swim we were not taken to the beautiful state park that we had experienced on our prior trip. In fact the workers at the park closed their gates when they saw us coming. Instead we were taken to a run down shack off to the side for a one minute dip. Later at the beach area we witnessed our young friend making a drug deal out in plain site while we waited patiently for him to get back in line so we could leave. I would have given this trip zero stars if it were not for the workers who somehow against all odds were able to keep these decrepit vehicles and hapless operation running. The moral of the story is pay more and only book excursions through your hotel if you want a decent experience.
