I am not good at walking for a long time, is this cave tubing excursion right for me?
The walk is approximately 25-30 minutes from the start of the river. The hiking part of this cave tube tour is not strenuous and the paths are well-maintained and smooth.

I cannot swim. Can I still do cave tubing?
Yes, cave tubing does not require swimming, unless you want to. Being an inexperienced swimmer is also not a problem.

If you inform your guide that you cannot swim, he can assure you feel safe during the excursion.
