A thrilling underground day combining two of Gunungkidul's most spectacular cave experiences: rappelling into the vertical Goa Jomblang to witness the 'light of heaven' beam (morning), followed by cave tubing through the underground river of Goa Pindul (afternoon). A physically active but accessible day for most travelers.
