   Read moreMy husband and I visited Luray caverns one weekend after visiting Skyline caverns and let me tell you…. I was so disappointed.
(Skip this part for info on Skyline) While Luray is a self guided tour and beautiful in its own right, I learned nothing about the formations, had no idea what I was looking at, was frustrated that I felt like I was in a Disney line not going anywhere because there was so many people and there was green stuff growing on so much of the ceiling and walls of the cavern.

Since we had a few minutes before our tour would begin we walked around the shop and checked out what they had. There were some interesting items some of which included a bunch of skull decorations.
Once our tour was called we went down into the first part of the cavern with Jordan our tour guide. He seemed knowledgeable and answered any question he was asked.
The tour took about an hour and was very informative and very personable. Who knew that there was an actual reason for using colored lighting...if you're not sure what that reason is well take the tour...
