Cave exploration requires practical outfit. We recommend wearing lightweight, dirt-resistant and quick-dry clothes. You may bring sandals for daily wear and change into professional cave boots before entering the cave.

Your private guide and driver will pick you up at your hotel at 8:00 AM. Enjoy a comfortable ride of less than one hour to reach Swallow Cave.

Meet your professional caving instructor on-site and get fully equipped with professional caving gear, including a headlamp helmet, caving suit, gloves and non-slip boots.

Start your thrilling cave adventure with an abseiling descent. Slide down the fixed rope to reach the cave bottom. Under the guidance of your instructor, explore unique karst landscapes and learn about cave formation principles and underground ecosystems. The instructor will adjust professional lighting and guide you to take stunning, one-of-a-kind cave photos. This immersive experience is a wonderful challenge for your courage and senses.

After the exploration, return to the cave entrance, remove your caving equipment and take a short break before enjoying a local lunch at a nearby restaurant.

After lunch, drive to Huixian Wetland to admire the famous Glass Paddy Fields. Relax yourself amid idyllic rural scenery, lush wetlands and mirror-like terraced fields.

If time permits, visit Zhuangyuan Bridge, an ancient stone bridge with a stunning natural backdrop that offers fantastic photo opportunities.

Finally, your private guide and driver will transfer you back to your hotel, completing your wonderful one-day outdoor and rural tour.
