Get in touch with your primeval nature as you discover some of the oldest relics of prehistory. Your exclusive private tour begins with a thorough demonstration of techniques used by Palaeolithic humans to make fire, to illuminate the dark caves in which they lived, and to paint.

After getting a taste of prehistoric life, you’ll head in to the chilly, dark caves to gaze upon cave paintings that date back over 30,000 years for an exceptional private tour outside of public opening hours.
Marvel at the evidence of a bygone culture that existed before civilisation began.
Wander through the caves, gazing at the veritable forests of stalactites, stalagmites, and columns.
