Had an AMAZING time and learned so much! Had a personal guide who was as adorable as she was knowledgeable Had to tip the young one by ourselves. I hope we gave her enough?! The family loved my corny jokes and sold me bag after bag of TREASURE sand! We loved it. The family running the place was as joyful as they come! They allowed a disabled vet like me to carry my 2 service dogs everywhere I needed to go and they loved our dogs. Turned out, they have chihuahuas too. Great people! Great tour! And a fascinating place to boot!! 5 stars all day long.

There are 71 step to the Cavern therefore it is not accessible for many people that are handicapped. However they do offer a video tour for anyone that can’t physically go down the steps. All you have to do is call to schedule a time to see it.

Jolene is correct. $18 for adults, $16 for seniors, $10 for kids (2 & under is free). We also found a coupon for $1 off each person on their website. Just had to show the lady at the register the coupon on my phone. My husband and I got tickets for $17/each. Not sure if the coupon is always available... But worth checking!

I have kids and the youngest is 2. Will a 2 year old enjoy the trip and make it through? If I had to, are the steps safe enough I can carry her safely?

Jason Winnebeck | Sep 30, 2019
Curtis Kleier | Sep 30, 2019

Yes she may not fully appreciate everything..but it should not prevent others from partaking. You never have to get on hands and knees to go through..you might have to duck a few places. The general tour is...safety rules..walk down steps, talk about Indians(just to Pace the tours), enter first major room(a few steps) gather everyone and remind about rules again,. Enter main room and information time, next room is where they turn off lights so be towards the back if this is not for you, backtrack next room will be down short tunnel be towards the front for full experience (watch your heads) good photo spot. backtrack and walk up steps look right and next good photo spot. Walk down. To last room. Exit....there are other activities as well while you are there if you would like. ..farm animals, panning for gems and at the front off the main road is mini golf

Am I allowed to bring a purse ? It says backpacks or bags not allowed though.

Crystal Bixler | Sep 27, 2022
James Lytle | Sep 27, 2022

Because your traveling through a few tight spaces the emphasis is more about not snagging objects out of site (ie on your back or side) on their natural formations as it will affect them for centuries. I would say small purse probably ok just be careful!

If a child gets scared or has to use the bathroom do we have to remain the whole hour tour? We have a family member who has to use the bathroom frequently.

arsenio perez | Sep 29, 2021
Gail Tunick | Sep 29, 2021

There is absolutely no place to go to the bathroom in the cave. It is not safe for anyone to even try and leave the tour. I would recommend if the person really wants to take the tour then wear depends (or if it's a child) have them wear a diaper for that hour. The tour guide does at one point shuts his flashlight off to show people how dark the cave is with no light. Trying to see your own hand when the flashlight is off is impossible. I would sincerely recommend that person skip this tour.

I was there recently. The guide lets you get a head start. I have a hard time getting around and we asked if we could head over to the entrance ahead of everyone else. There are 71 steps leading up to the cave. There are steps inside the cave as well. There are benches along the way and also a bench inside the cave. You can take your time. They understand. Enjoy it!
