Surviving 5-hours in Malaysia’s Gua Tempurung cave

We just took a 200km train trip from Kuala Lumpur to a Malaysian city that’s known as much for its vibrant food and arts scene as for its rich mining history. But we’re here for a different kind of adventure: we’re about to climb, crawl, and swim deep into one of the country’s hottest caves, in an experience that’s sure to be a physical challenge for the entire fam. Let’s get to it.

ABOUT US

We’re the Lockwoods. And we’re traveling the world to experience—up close and in person—all the natural wonders and distinct cultures that our kids would otherwise be consuming only through textbooks and TV. We think it’s a better way to learn and we’re working hard to fund this little experiment in the hope that our kids will grow up wiser, kinder, and more grateful for the beauty of our diverse planet and its people.
