The entire trip is very exciting and fun. Those prone to motion sickness are advised to take motion sickness medication beforehand, otherwise you may feel unwell. The driver is very skilled and will even drive close to the cliff face for a thrilling experience. The entire trip lasts about 20 minutes, with a fast-paced and efficient schedule, making it a highly recommended activity for adventure lovers and those seeking a sense of speed.
The bus was parked in the area to the right of the meeting point. Although it was marked 120 minutes, it seemed they wouldn't check. You needed to check in at the counter first. After checking in, you had to take a speedboat to the cave (if you get seasick, take seasickness medication beforehand). Once in the cave, you were divided into groups for a guided tour before entering. It was really dark inside the cave, and you could see many blue glowing points. Finally, we had a hot drink and watched a video in a room to conclude the tour. It was really fun and very well-organized! Two last two things to remember: be sure to wear a waterproof jacket and shoes with good traction. Also, if it rains, remember to bring an umbrella so you don't get soaked!
From registration to the safety briefing, everything was handled with meticulous care and friendliness. The staff were highly professionally dressed and repeatedly checked my equipment until just before boarding and until the very last moment of the jump. I felt incredibly reassured entrusting my safety to the instructor. I highly recommend purchasing the photography package; you might only ever jump like this once in your life, so why not capture that unforgettable moment? It's absolutely priceless.
The event was very safe, the staff explained everything very clearly, and they even provided warm clothing, shoes, socks, and a backpack – no need to bring your own! It was truly thoughtful.
The Chinese explanations were easy to understand, and the guide was very eloquent. Although the clouds obscured the view later, the overall experience was excellent.
