From Batumi, head towards Tskaltubo. Leave early. So, a very meaningful journey awaits you. You will see a lot of interesting things along the way!
But, the most important thing is ahead of you. Arriving in Tskaltubo, turn towards the cave. You buy tickets, wait 15 minutes, and the guide invites you...You are starting the most fabulous journey of your life. How fairy tales are told, not to describe with a pen, not to say a word! If you will ever visit the beauty of Georgia, do everything you can to definitely visit this luxurious, amazing and fabulous cave!

I was on an excursion in this cave. I must say right away, the cave itself is 5 stars. Very beautiful lighting and musical accompaniment at the end of the tour.
But the tour and the speed with which you "fly through" the cave is disappointing. The guide speaks 3 languages Georgian, English and finally broken Russian. The information in our language is something like this: "There is a rock in front of you, and a hole in it", at least and primitive. The price is high, so you expect a good tour and a quiet sightseeing, but in reality it's the opposite.
There is something to compare it with. I have been to the New Athos Cave several times.
PS you can make an audio guide to somehow improve the tour

For me, who visited such a large cave for the first time, it was wow! This is the setting, the atmosphere, the volume of the cave and the incredible beauty of stalactites and stalagmites, which eventually take on bizarre shapes. I did not like the guide, who speaks Russian and English poorly and could not be heard at all because of the large number of people. But it didn't spoil the impression, you just have to go and admire 😍

This is really a Cave! It will capture and surprise you with its scale. The first steps are "well, nothing special," and then you get excited. The lighting was very nicely organized and the light show at the end is a pleasant point. Org points - there are 2 types of tickets with a boat tour along the underground river and without a boat, where you walk back 300m outside the cave. Seasoned tourists recommended not to take a ticket with a boat because you will drive half the way in the dark and miss a lot. I don't know if this is true, but I really liked it without a boat. Besides, the ticket is much cheaper. It's cool and very humid inside - keep in mind, take a jacket. There are many ascents and descents of stairs. The pace seemed to me quite high, I would like to look around more stops. You will spend 40 minutes on your feet. Photos do not convey beauty and scale at all.

A very beautiful and interesting cave! The work done is huge, the lighting is everywhere, you feel like in a fairy tale, and the music also matches! There was a group of 30 people, we came with a family of 4 people. The guide speaks Georgian, English and Russian! I recommend it!

Of the advantages: 1 beautiful last room in the cave and bought spices after the tour. All
It is worth starting with the safety of visitors, neither helmets nor vests were given. You just go the whole tour in a very large group and that's it, there are no fences either. The guide made 4-5 stops for me in 1 hour (that's how long we walked through the cave) (2 minutes). It is not clear what the tour consists of, but 25 GEL has been paid. That is, for this amount you are looking at yourself and in fact I have not received any sensible information. "Staloctite in the form of Georgia" - I remember these words of the guide, but I want something more interesting. I was very upset, again, there is something to compare it with. And at the end there is a minibus that should take you to the initial point, but since there are a lot of people (50 people) and there are few seats, and everyone did not fit in, we drove standing up in order not to waste time and not wait for the next one. It's expensive and I can't tell you anything about the cave, because they didn't give me the information. Well, there was and there was. All. Upset

It's great. The tour is conducted in English and Russian. It is possible with small children. Near the cave there are many souvenir shops and tents with natural juices that are made with you. Pomegranate is very tasty. A glass of 10 GEL.

The power and beauty of stalactites, stalagmites, stalagmites is amazing. The cave is convenient to visit, but I didn't like the organization. Groups of 70 people and very boring information from the guide. It's good that there is information in Yandex.

My family and I visited Prometheus Cave and were generally satisfied. The cave is beautiful and impressive in its size and internal structure. The only drawback is that the excursions gather too large groups, and because of this, the walk lasts a long time and can be boring. But the place itself is worth a visit, especially if you have not been to such caves before. Everything is safe and comfortable inside, and both children and adults liked it.

If you haven't been to the caves at all, it might be worth it. If you have been to caves in the Crimea, definitely not, you will be disappointed. The cave itself is much more modest and sooo commercialized. Of the claimed 1,600 meters of cave beauty, 10% of the actual beauty, the rest is a quick walk through completely empty tunnels. The "guide", rather an escort, quickly speaks into the microphone in Georgian, bad English and very bad Russian completely banal things - height, length, opening time. If you consider that there are about a hundred people in the group, it's not realistic to hear anything, even if you want to. The advertised light show is a hack. The lanterns have moved and shine not on the beautiful "icicles", but next to them. The music is played in the first and last hall, very loudly, not in any way cave-private). In short, this whole show is designed for the stream, there is no taker for the soul...

The cave impresses with its size, the extraordinary beauty of the halls, skillfully emphasized by lighting, and a long and conveniently paved pedestrian path. Surprisingly, it is warm inside, always +14 - whereas usually in caves it is slightly above zero. A walk through the cave as part of an organized group with a guide according to the schedule, I had to wait a little for the beginning. The group was small, about 15 people, the guide tells very briefly in English and Russian (possibly in Georgian, depending on the group). At the end of the route, there is a beautiful light and music show in the Prometheus Hall. Unfortunately, it was not possible to take a boat ride on the underground river - something was being repaired on the day of the visit, and the service was not available.

An interesting place, unusual. If you come to Georgia, then you must visit.
It won't impress you to the core, but it's interesting. The boats do not cost 20 lari. But it's worth a ride. Put an end to it, so to speak...

For 25 GEL per person, you will receive a guided tour with a huge group of an indefinite number, you can not take pictures or look at it, because the trail is narrow and they adjust it from behind, the guide leads the tour in Russian and English, but does not really know either language. Also, now it's August 2024, they are missing a decent part of the route, but for some reason the cost does not change 🤷♀️
When you exit, you are waiting in the heat for a bus that will take you to the beginning of the route, but to get on the bus you need to go through the Afghan war and gladiatorial battles, all this in 30 degree heat.
Thank you for your attention, I really don't recommend it. The caves are beautiful, but the organization is disgusting.

It's a pity that the guide leads the group very quickly, because I want to photograph every stalactite and stalagmite! We were especially impressed by the halls where music is playing!!!

If you are going on an excursion, I do not advise you to go with a large group, you can not hear anything. It is better to overpay and go with a group of 10 people. Rafting from the cave along the river is impressive, but do not count on a long walk, five minutes and you swim out of the cave. Rafting is not included in the standard ticket price, you must pay extra separately. The tours are repeated every 40 minutes.

Everything is well-maintained and beautifully decorated, both outside and inside. There is a backlight in the halls of the cave, in several halls it changes along with the music.
This place is worth a visit

A very beautiful place! It is not quite audible what the guide tells, but the group was bilingual (Russian and English), it was possible to hear all the information twice. Restaurants in the area are much more expensive, so they went to eat in Kutaisi (not far away). It's not cold inside the cave, even in shorts and a T-shirt, so don't be afraid of the temperature of 16 degrees))

The cave itself is very beautiful and large, on the day of the visit there was an opportunity to sail by boat after the walking part, this is available when a certain water level is also not a bad attraction. I didn't like that a lot of people were launching at once, everyone was walking in a stretched chain, the guide spoke English and Russian, but there was little information and it was hard to hear, as people added noise, especially when they were not speaking their language. The part where the music is playing and the backlight is changing is also interestingly done. Of course, natural beauty is beyond any competition, but some people tend to go beyond the fences, touch the growths, which probably spoils natural processes, but since the guide is far ahead, no one sees this and does not make comments((

A large, very interesting cave system. The concrete staircase spoils the view a little, but there is probably no way without it. I recommend taking a boat with children at the exit, they like it.

An interesting cave with a well-equipped pedestrian and water part. When buying a ticket, keep in mind that if you take a ticket without a boat ride, you will not get into the water part of the cave during this visit. If you pay for the boat fare, you may not see the entire pedestrian area. The cave has convenient parking. Do not hesitate, the price was 1 GEL. It's not much. I recommend

The caves are beautiful. The tour is disgusting, the group is huge, about 60 people, 4 Indians and the remaining Russian speakers. The guide spoke in three languages (Russian is bad at the end and minimal). Everyone was following each other, in the end nothing was heard.

Paid parking, which you don't know about in advance. Long waits and forced excursions.
The grandfather in the parking lot directly demanded to pay him 3 laras.
I didn't go on the tour because of the long wait in line for the tour: at first, she said the wait was 30 minutes, then it increased to 45 minutes.
There's a lot to do in that area besides waiting in line to look at the caves.

An absolutely terrible place with nasty staff. Zero understanding and friendliness. Everything is very rude, questions are not answered. As rough as possible. The child drowned the tickets in the toilet, they were asked to replace them, as they had a code on them, which stopped being read. They said there was no other option but to buy new tickets. Free 100 GEL for the staff. Caves are normal.

Entrance is 25 lari, drive "2 minutes" by boat inside the cave of 25 lari (I do not recommend the latter). The prices are absolutely not comparable to the feed. It's fun to look at the cave from the inside, but no more. Monetization on nothing is very striking. Tourists are launched in groups once every half hour. One guide, who monotonously broadcasts, though in 3 languages (Georgian, English, Russian), a group of about 80 people, did not count, but a lot. Everyone is walking in single file after each other. The concrete on the tracks was wet and slippery, and it was very easy to get injured. It's good that there are handrails. You can't go outside the track, you can only watch. There is lighting in different colors inside, music is not appropriate. Well, somewhere in the distance, the guide is mumbling, not paying attention to the fact that he can be heard by the first 10 people. There is no time to sleep when you have passed the cave in one direction - get out

It's a good cave, it's the best in the heat of 30 °. The excurium is conducted in three languages, first in Georgian, then in English, and finally in Russian. They don't know Russian well, they can't make it out. It is easier to understand English. Nicely. Walk for an hour and a half. They're taking the bus back.

Expensive. It's crowded. But all the same, the scale of the cave is worth going and evaluating, it really is a super cave. Of the advantages: it is suitable even for pensioners and children, there are no hellish ascents, only descents and a couple of small stairs up the route. The path is in one direction, a shuttle bus picks up at the exit - convenient. If you have extra money, I recommend taking a boat trip through the cave. It's short, just a few minutes, but very atmospheric.

One of the best caves I've ever been to. It is very beautiful, which surprised me with the length of 1.5 km, I have never been in such long ones before, basically everyone just went deep. There is also boating, but since they were on New Year's holidays (more precisely, winter time affects), the service was not provided, only in the warmer months. In general, I recommend you to visit.

Very beautiful. But the service is terrible and there is no excursion.
Responsible people for conducting the tour did it never occur to you that your guide could not be heard with the equipment that you give him. If the music buttons are turned on in each hall and coursework. Why not click in each hall in the same way as conducting an excursion so that everyone can hear. To run after the guides and try to hear what he will say, but it is very inconvenient.

The cave itself is cool, but the organization is very lame. Firstly, the guide is not audible at all, and even if you stand next to her, she still does not speak intelligibly. It's better to just initially hand out headphones to everyone and turn on the audio guide. And the main disadvantage is that we bought a boat ride. As a result, we waited in the cave for 40 minutes until a boat came to pick us up. Insanely inconvenient
