"The Lost World Tour took me down a vertical entrance shaft where I descended straight into a prehistoric world filled with strange beautiful plants and fossils, followed by a dry caving adventure as I explored the gigantic vaults of the Mangapu Cave system, including seeing amazing glow worms and followed by a 30 meter / 100 foot ladder that I had to climb straight up from the bottom of the cave to get out called ‘The Stairway To Heaven.’ It was a mind-blowing adventure!”
