description This paper aims to identify and analyse the meanings inherent in the tourist experiences in caving. The studies related to the defi nition and classifi cation of the speleotourism lead to a wide range of situations and motivations that stimulate the ones who practice it from a simple form of leisure and entertainment to the ones who are in search of unique sensations and a bigger involvement with underground environment. Dealing with this last category, the caves visitors whose practice is different from the mass tourism, this study presents aspects such as spatial temporal confi guration and its infl uence on the perception and habits of this underground environment, showing how these experiences tend to interfere into the Speleotourists sensibility as well as determine new relations with the Other and the nature.
