Ticket redemption was easy and quick. We booked the last tour of the day, and since there was no rush for the next group, the guide extended the experience a bit longer. The tour lasted until around 6 PM, wrapping up just as the souvenir shop was closing. It was informative, though the focus was more on the caves themselves rather than the glowworms.
