Our family of 5 enjoyed the historic tour - kids age 4,9,10. There are some tight spaces to get through but nothing too difficult. Lots of stairs on the way out. Our guide was very informative.Full review by WBJM2009

I only did the historic tour, but there were a lot of stairs on it, and that was what was holding some people back or at least slowing them down. If stairs aren't much of an issue for you and you can walk fine, for me personally, I would do it. The guide stops at certain points to give a pretty lengthy talk about what you are looking at, so if it's taking you longer to get through the section, you might miss part of what they are saying if you are moving slowly, but it's not like you'll be left behind in the cave. If you find that you are having a hard time walking from the parking lot to the cave, then I would say skip it!
Q:
Pets allowed?
A:
No. Our son and daughter in law have 2 dogs and they checked ahead of time. No dogs on the cave tours.
