Best time to visit
Early morning or late afternoon, especially on weekdays, when guided tours are less crowded and cooler. Spring and fall offer milder temps for above-ground activities like the zipline.
Budget tips
General admission is paid per person, with discounts for children and seniors; purchase online in advance to lock a lower rate. Save by buying combo tickets for the cavern plus zipline or ropes course, or using city attraction passes when offered.

About
Бързи факти: Kaleidoscopes of calcite shimmer under tour lights, turning ordinary rock into columns and curtains that glow at close range. Guides love pointing out formations with quirky nicknames and surprising numbers, like a single column that towers about 60 feet above the cavern floor.
Акценти: Tours plunge roughly 180 feet below the surface where the air cools and the steady drip of mineral-rich water creates a soft, hollow rhythm you feel as much as hear. Seasoned guides sometimes invite small groups to measure drip rates, counting roughly 1,000 tiny drops over an hour to show how stalagmites gain only a few millimeters each year.
Insider tips
- Wear closed-toe shoes with good traction; cave floors are uneven and can be slick.
- Bring a light jacket, cave temperature stays around 70°F and can feel cool compared with outside heat.
- Arrive 20–30 minutes before your scheduled tour to check in and avoid having to switch tours.
- If photographing underground, use a fast lens and steady hands; flash is limited on guided tours so plan for low-light shots or book a lantern photography tour.
