    The site is very impressive but it doesn't cater for international audiences as well as it could do. We were given tablets with English guides on them but the software was badly implemented. When following the tour if you moved to the wrong part of the cave it switched to the next audio before the last part finished with no way to go back. There was als no visual guide during the cave part. The interactive AR parts were also a bit flakey too. It's also worth noting the outside toilets have no paper, or soap, and some didn't have locks.

    A great centre, which houses a perfect replica of the cave, with many other activities. State-of-the-art Audioguides. They are connected to the different parts of the place that when you enter a specific part of the museum, it automatically explains about that part.
