What you will see
Inside the grotto, everything is made of ice: sculptures, the bar, the furniture and the armchairs. More than 50,000 kilos of ice were used to build it. The grotto is at ten degrees below zero, so the warm coat and gloves are necessary. It is a space made for photos, and you will want to take many. It is worth taking your time to look at every corner before the visit ends.
The visit includes 30 minutes of open bar with and without alcohol, served in ice glasses. You can toast while dancing to the music. Drinks, the warm coat and gloves are included. When you finish, the minibus takes you back to your hotel after 1 hour 30 minutes in total. It is a different option from the province's nature tours.
