Prato: 3-Hour Caving Adventure – Tuscany, Italy

EXPERIENCE:

Learn about the science of “speleology” on a half-day adventure in the heart of Tuscany, and explore the natural grottoes and caves beneath the ground as you take part in a thrilling caving activity.

Cave exploring is probably one of the most ancient of human activities, considering the protection caves offered in prehistoric times. So, travel back millions of years and discover the world beneath your feet with an expert guide.

Meet your guide at the pre-arranged meeting point, and transfer about 4 kilometers to the caving start point. Put on the provided caving attire and check your equipment carefully with your guide as they give you a quick briefing on what to expect and how to stay safe.

Then, pass from light to the dark as you discover an extraordinary environment that has developed over millions of years from water erosion. Be dazzled by the stalactites and stalagmites, the columns and organ pipes, and much more. Learn about their genesis, forms and properties before re-emerging into the light.
