Address: 1437 Cumberland Caverns Rd, McMinnville, TN 37110, USA

The main tour took about 90 minutes, and was great for kids. If you call the caverns, they can walk you through all the options and recommend something that would be right for your group.

The tour typically takes 90 minutes, but may take a bit longer/shorter depending on the group. Concert prices vary, but are generally in the $35-$75 dollar range depending on the group. Thank you all for the questions and everyone who answered. REVISED TO ANSWER A NEW QUESTION ABOUT WHEELCHAIR ACCESSIBILITY: We are not handicap accessible. The trial is comprised of an uneven dirt and gravel surface and also contains stairs. Therefore not suitable (nor safe) for wheelchairs or strollers. Thank you!

About 90 minutes, my 10 year old loved it. I saw younger and older kids there too - all seemed enthralled.

When we took the tour, it all depends on who your guide is. Our guide took almost two hours to complete.

I would not recommend for toddlers...once you go beyond the initial entrance the rock formations, which are 'the steps' can be pretty steep and narrow. Better for kids 7and up...having said that it was very challenging for two adult members in our family with hip and knee issues. Although our guide did not make us feel rushed, it was very challenging for them. There is an area about halfway, where the guide will tell you that you can wait on the benches while the group explored higher in the cave...and that is what a few people did choose to do. I wish it would have said the tour varies in skills from medium to semi-difficult. I mean it's not rock climbing, but it's like a very steep, long stairway with the stairs being far apart...so stretch before you start too
