I love caves, and this was a perfect side outing while visiting Austin! Approximately 3/4 mile total walked, about 70ft deep is the depth of the cave exploration. Tour guide was friendly amd informative about the history and maintenance of the cave. Cute little souvenir shop and a little zip line activity. Enjoyed it immensely!~

Fun informative cave tour. Takes just over and hour. Easy walk and great for kids. Some very beautiful rock formations. You can get get tickets online or in person. Make sure you check out the daily schedule, there are many school groups who book certain time periods. Tours are leaving about every 15 minutes. Must be able to walk the 1 mile stretch. No wheelchairs or strollers are allowed

An absolutely amazing and informative tour, including the history of the discovery, of the caverns and their importance to both the geological and paleontological records, as well as a nesting place for the local bat colonies. Our two teens were fully engaged, and are now keen to explore other cave systems in central Texas. Special shout out to Rachel, our tour guide par excellence! She has a great gift for making the tour a memorable experience!

A literal hidden gem right off of I-35. There are three levels of tours. The Adventure is best for families with young children or those who aren’t interested in crawling into tight spaces. The Hidden tour is a medium challenge for anyone over age 7, and is the one we did. The Wild requires participants to be over 13 and involves crawling and getting into and through tight spaces. It looks amazing and we will come back and do it at another point (either when the kids are older or as an adult date). Our tour guide, Tawny, was friendly and very knowledgeable. The caves are really cool and the tour gets you to see a wide variety of formations and features. There is also an area above ground where you can buy bags or buckets of dirt pre-loaded with semi-precious stones, replica arrowheads, or fossils and then “pan” for your treasures in the sluice. My kids loved it. There’s also a small playground which is well maintained. We didn’t go on the zip line ride although it looked fun. Overall, highly recommended. Although the tours aren’t cheap, they are well worth the money and give you a good amount of time underground.

Thanks! Your review is awaiting moderation.

You have to go with a tour guide. It is a little rushed since tours are timed, but fairly small groups.

Walk is long, slippery, slow. Lots of standing as well. Rails are available in slick areas. Many suggestions to utilize them. After the long walk you return to the entry tunnel...a very steep climb with rails. Sneakers and work out clothes are a must. At the end of the cavern air is dank. You may start to perspire. But beautiful sights.
