Lehman Caves — Attraction in Ely

Paris to rent a car and drive for four hours with three small kids only to be told they were short staffed and didn't have time to take us through. Staff not helpful at all times me I should have read the website, I told them I did read the website and shoes the lady the page I read it all from and she told me the reservation was on a different website, how the heck was I supposed to know that! We finally asked for a manager who said we could go with the group into the first room for 30 minutes and they charged us over $20 and took us to the first room for 8 minutes! Then as the group went on they made my family go out the entrance, my mom asked the guy taking us out to show the kids the heartbeat of the cave and he just said no he didn't want to take the time. I guess they only take 20 people at a time as to not show down the growth of the cave but it doesn't make sense because they take group after group. Also the groups only had 17-18 people and my family offered to split up but were still told no. So the cost of a car rental, 8 hours of driving and 20+ dollars all for seeing one little cave from for 8 minutes. Three of disappointed kids who missed a day of school on top of everything. Also each guide makes sure to spend a lot of time making you feel guilty for being a human visiting a natural park, we got a whole lecture on how our clothes make lint that they have to clean out of the cages 2x a year. Seriously people back off the stupid rules and let people enjoy the amazing things the world...
