The overall tour was great but the ā€˜emerald cave’ which you have to queue for over an hour to get in to, was so disappointing. To call it a cave is a joke, it’s an alcove at best and the have to queue for such an underwhelming experience was ridiculous, we could have had an hours more kayaking down the river - which our guide told us was way nicer to look at beyond the point we visited.
