Vážené učiteľky a učitelia!
Plánujete školský výlet? Aj keď vstupy zatiaľ vopred nerezervujeme, školské skupiny vybavujeme priebežne. Ak sa kapacita oficiálneho vstupu naplní, podľa prevádzkových možností umožníme pre školy vstupy aj mimo stanoveného času. Naším cieľom je, aby ste u nás nečakali dlhšie, než je nevyhnutné. Tešíme sa na vašu návštevu!
Dear visitors,
We appreciate your interest in our show caves and since we want you to feel comfortable during your visit and to perceive the beauty of underground nature more intensely, we have canceled fees for photography/filming as part of a regular tour from January 1, 2026. However, this does not mean an extension of the tour time and we ask you to follow the instructions of our guides. We wish you a pleasant experience!
