``Replica of the cave where the Ekain cave art is found, as the original cave is not acessible to the public. An excellent guided tour, an exceptional explanation of how they used to make fire and hunt, and the staff were 100% friendly and keen to give you a great experience. 100% recommended.``

You can only see a replica, but it is exactly like the real thing, it sets the scene outstandingly, and as we were told in the guided tour, these are the best cave paintings of horses in the world. It will leave you gobsmacked, they are a true marvel. If I return to the area, I will go again.``
