For those of you that go, there are lots of opportunities for visiting caves, both small and large - many are very easy for any person in halfway decent shape to visit. Also, MAKE SURE you go to the top and see the Barbary Apes that live in a colony at the top of the rock, Definitely one of the highlights of my trip. DO NOT let the apes sit on your shoulder. Some of the local guides will have people put a peanut in a shirt pocket and tempt the monkey onto your shoulder for photo opps. I don't think Barbary Ape doo-doo running down your shirt makes for a great photo, but the poor guys relatives were having a great time of it.
