Tour sizes are limited to minimise any impact on the cave paintings which are up to 40,000 years old. Our guide was knowledgeable and spoke English. There has been little development to the caves apart from creating steps and putting in handrails which made the experience more of an adventure and enjoyable. Not advisable for people unsteady on their feet, there are a lot of steep steps up to the caves and inside. Be prepared for the occasional bat!

The most beautiful cave I have visited so far. The tour starts with a group of 25 people incluiding a guide. At the start you are given a lantern per 2 persons. The tour takes 90 minutes and you are shown very impressive walls, collums, stalagmites and stalagtites. You will see drawings that are over 40.000 years old. DO NOT bring small children. At the beginning of the tour you are urged not to touch the walls and stalagmites etc. As the oil and acid that are naturally on your skin desintegrated the minerals of the cave and cause it to decay. Our group had a family with a small boy (2yo), that was running, falling over things, touching everything in his path. He was crying (which echoes back and fort) for the most part of the tour that made it really hard to hear what the guide was telling us. At the end of the cave you are asked to turn off the lanterns and be quiet so you can hear the echoing troughout the cave system. This was impossible because of the crying (it was pitch black without the lanterns, he was probably scared). Unfortunately it took away from our experience. For older kids its fine, ours 6yo and 8yo, as they understand not to touch and can be silent when asked or the guide is explaining.

Many ancient cave paintings and mesmerising rock formations. Explained in perfect English. You need to be mobile though as there are many steps. Uneven and sometimes slippery. An wonderful experience.

We went in a group of 12 people including teenagers. While i have been to many caves, this was the first time seeing very ancient cave paintings date back to 40,000 years ago (thereabout). The cave system is quite extensive — the area open for visitors only forms a small part of the entire cave. We saw many interesting drawings.. fish, horse, deer, cow etc. There are some pools of water in the cave, a reminder of how human ancestors used to live in this conditions. The guide was knowledgable, and speaks good English. Very patient with us too. We like the fact that the cave is not explouted just for profit (in many cave systems in the world many historical relics easily destroyed due to over tourism ( building of articifial structure in the cave to “beautify” it, thereby destroying the teal stuff in the process). Pileta cave looks genuinely authentic, we should preserve the relics for the next generation.

Wonderful, informative, and fantastical tour to see amazing formations and Neo and Paleolithic drawings from 4,000 to 35,000 years old! Our guide, Tomas, was insightful, patient, and funny, as he explained how the cave was found by his family in 1905; and how it became protected. We also learned how stalactites are hollow, and can be played. Their tones were pure and haunting. It’s worth the visit,

An unforgettable experience. It is indeed a hike up to the cave, and the footing inside is slippery in spots, but the paintings and the cave itself were entirely worth it. Our guide was excellent and repeated a fair amount of his narration in good English. I am grateful this cave has remained in private hands and accessible to those willing and able to make the trek.

Wonderful caves with excellent rock formations. Not particularly developed for tourists. Very unusual as no electric lighting so carried a lantern. Also very rare opportunity to see Neolithic cave paintings from 4000-40000 years ago first hand close up. Some difficult slightly slippery passages so not really suitable for people with mobility issues. Not too much climbing however as caves go. Tour in Spanish and clear English lasted 1 3/4 hrs, given by descendent of original farmer who discovered caves. Prebook your place by telephone as no online booking yet.
