We really liked not having a guide. It allowed us to go at our own pace. The people at the location we kind and helpful. We really enjoyed our experience.

Cave is OK. However ticket booth didn’t recognize ticket from Víator and I had to spend almost 15min waiting for people at ticket booth to contact their manager to clarify what they needed to do

Great indoors activity for those days or hours when it rains in Ishigaki. Cave is quite large, around 700 m which go in a circular way. Illumination is nice, specially the part of the "light city". Conditions are very reasonable. Couple of things I would consider are, removing the background audio, which takes away part of the experience (although some people would be unhappy without audio, due to the tremendous silence) Souvenir shop is large with plenty of items for you to purchase. Try the gelato stand at the end of the cave, before the gift shop too!

The caves are very nice. They are lite well and the guide was great. The Stalactites hanging from the ceilings of caverns along with the stalagmites were fantastic.

Though I have visited the famous Reed flute cave recently in Guilin, it was wonderful to visit this beautiful cave which is almost bit less than a KM long. The whole cave system is a beautiful experience and is being well maintained, it can be easily walked and kids enjoyed as well. Only issue was being July, it was really humid being in the cave. We enjoyed the blue seal ice cream located right at the exit.

結構中が広く、整備されていて、見ごたえがあります。水琴窟あり、小さくきれいな音を響かせていました。出口にある売店は、割安でお得感があります。特にかりゆしウエアが激安でした。

日本で7番目の大きさの鍾乳洞ということで、なかなかの迫力がありました。 多彩な鍾乳石も観察でき、石化した多くの珊瑚にも海底の様子を想像させる楽しさがあります。 所どころにある解説ボードが風化して見えなくなっているのが本当に惜しいです。もっと知識を吸収できる仕組みになっていれば、知的好奇心が満たされると思います。 イルミネーションは思っいたよりシュールで楽しかったです。

天気が良い日にあえて他のアクティビティに優先して行くところではないと思います。ライトアップして演出されていて、ディズニーのアトラクションを歩いてまわっているような感じはします。

午前中少し時間がありましたので、ANAインターコンチネンタルホテルからタクシーを利用して訪れました。訪れた時には他には誰もいませんでしたのでゆっくりと鍾乳洞を独り占めできました。印象的な場所としては洞窟内に設置されていました、水琴窟です。綺麗な音を響かせており、その音に魅了されました。この鍾乳洞の全長は3,2キロほどありますが、一般に公開されているのは660メートルです。時間にして凡そ30分位あれば見学出来ます。

長い長い時間をかけて形成された3km強の鍾乳洞のうち660mを歩いて見学可能。歩くだけなのでなんでもないけど、しょっちゅう目にするものではないので興味深い。 通路が狭かったり、階段が一段ずつ高さや広さがまちまちで歩きにくいところがあるので、脚が悪い高齢者等にはおススメしにくい。 正直な感想…必ず行くべきという感じではなく、時間が大幅に余る時や雨で屋外アクティビティができない時に行くのがおすすめ。
