My 18 months old girls loved it ... my 4 and 5 yr old boys thought the formations were amazing but did not like the total darkness part... All in all though when we finished it they wanted to go again...would have to agree with the others depends on the kid.

I would say if you have an exploritory child who loves to learn it would be great. How much they retain will be as you talk to them while the grow. I always loved revisiting places my parents took me as a child.

It depends on the kids. If theyvare interested in that sort of thing and can sit on the tram. They di turm iut the lights for a moment to shiw the titak darkness (unleas you have an adult in the group that cant follow directions and has their phone out despite the instructions of putting phones away/covering them)... All thatbti say, simw kids are better behaved than adults ;) We saw some kids. There is a trail down to the water that could be fun for playing. If you have multiple adults you could alternate who goes in the cave and who hangs with the kids. Its not a far drive in and out if town but good idea to have drinks/snacks. Especially if you hang out and walk to the spring. They do sell popcorn and soda in the gift shop. Happy travels

The six year old would be fine if the three year old can set still it would be ok but don't think they would really enjoy it

Depends on the child my 11 year old daughter loved it

It depends. If your kids are quiet and set still. If not it wont be enjoyable for anyone. The guide talks a lot. So your children need to be able to listen or at least be silent.

You could bring them they might have fun riding through the cave. If you can't keep them still and quiet during presentations you might get some dirty looks.

Definitely

Don't think young children 5 and below would enjoy it. They may find it a little scary.
