Brilliant place for a family visit, but not advisable for small children. The price is fair. We took the short 60 minute tour, but for sure we will be back next year ( or before) for the 100 minute tour, which is 4km drive from the 60 minute tour cave. There is a guide who escorts you through the cave, stopping at certain places to explain the history. It was interesting and quite amazing. We took extra warm clothes in a back pack, just incase we got cold half way through. But there was no need, I was in shorts and a t shirt. Other people in light jackets. Once the tour is over, you have a pleasant walk back over the hills to the beginning. Out side the cave in the surrounding areas (walking) there is souvenir shops and 3 restaurants, well places to eat. Not high class restaurants, I would rather say , quick food points, but you order and can sit in pleasant surroundings and enjoy your food. The food price was also good value and not your typical tourist resort extortionate price. There is a small play ground, all in all it's a full day program. After the cave you can walk around the Forrest.

The Aggtelek cave complex is an amazing network of ancient caves in Hungary and Slovakia. The nature park offers different guided tours according to a variety of difficulty levels and durations. There are two entrances (with ticket offices) for the different tours, located a few minutes car ride from each other. The visits show the impressive caves, with beautiful stalagmites and others shapes. It’s cold down there, so dress accordingly. The tours at the time that when we went, were only offered in Hungarian, which is not unusual in Hungary. There are brochures with some minimal information in other languages, including English. However, the guide did not even bother to clearly name the different formations for non-native speakers, so you were regularly made to wait somewhere for a long Hungarian explanation without any idea where you were, without being able to follow in the brochure.

We came to the Baradla cave. On the other side of the road we found a big parking lot, free of charge. Entering the cave is possible only with a guided tour, which occurs three time a day - 11:00, 13:00 and 15:00, as for our time of visit. The guided tours and ONLY in hungarian... They gave a nice paper with some information, but seeing the hungarian enjoy a much more fun tour made feel like we missed an important part of the tour. Except from that, the cave was amazing and beautiful. We paid 2000 Forint each for being students. We are neither hungarian nor European unions citizens, so bring your student ID if you have one, even if your are from outside the EU !!! Bottom line - highly recommend, even if you don't speak hungarian, enjoy! :)

System podziemnych korytarzy rozciągajacych się na terenie Słowackiego Krasu oraz Parku Narodowego Aggtelek, wpisany na listę światowego dziedzictwa UNESCO. Węgierska cześć to jaskinia Baradla. Słowacka część jaskini (około 20%) nosi nazwę Domica. Tam też można odbyć spływ podziemną rzeką Styks. Długość systemu jaskiniowego to ponad 25,5km. Sama jaskinia jest duża, nie trzeba się czołgać, przeciskać, schylać i pełzać. Formy naciekowe są podświetlone i ładnie wyeksponowane. W jednej z t komnat znajduje się „Obserwatorium” czyli najwyższy węgierski stalagmit, liczący sobie 19 metrów wysokości. Punktem kulminacyjnym całej trasy jest „The Hall of Giants”, czyli „Sala Olbrzymów" w której znajdują się różne formy nacieków skalnych. W sali odbywa się pokaz typu „światło i dźwięk” – i w zasadzie ten pokaz uratował całe to zwiedzanie. Jaskinie zwiedza się tylko i wyłącznie z przewodnikiem. Po pierwsze nie mają żadnej kontroli ile osób wchodzi, więc my akurat byliśmy w grupie, która liczyła ponad 50 osób co najmniej. Przewodnik nie ma żadnego mikrofonu, więc osoby idące na końcu nie słyszą go. Zresztą nie mialo to większego znaczenia dla nas, bo mówik tylko po węgiersku, więc tak czy inaczej czuliśmy się jak na tureckim, pardon, węgierskim , kazaniu. Nie ma żadnych ulotek , mapek w języku angielskim, pani w kasie nie zaproponowała niczego, nic też nie leżalo. Ogólnie byliśmy bardzo rozczarowani, formacje naciekowe , po jaskiniach w USA , też nie powaliły nas na. kolana. Parking darmowy. Wychodzi się w innym miejscu, jest autokar, które dowozi do parkingu, ale też zadnego info, skąd odjeżdża.

This is a must do thing in Hungary. I drove 3 hrs from Budapest to here to get into the caves in early morning. You can not get in by yourself you have to go with the tour and guide, the tour is about an hour and 1km long. You enter here and get out at different location. The guide takes you through different parts of the caves and explains every thing. It is very cold inside the caves around 10deg C so better to take warm clothes. It extends more than 25.5 km.

Epic cave that you can’t fully appreciate through photos. The concert hall is something to behold. One problem for myself was that the guide was only in Hungarian. Luckily my misses speaks four languages including Hungarian do interpreted for me. Take a jacket as it is quite chilly down there. Plenty of good grub around including Langos. Cool little shops for buying stuff you’ll never use after today.
