Crazy experience with friends and family and it was a blast! It was also raining that day which added on to the hike up the hill then down into the cave. “Warning” it was freezing down there so make sure to dress appropriately to the cave temperature if you don’t like the cold don’t go those days. Anyways, the prices were pretty reasonable and the staff was friendly. If you don’t want to go in a cave, you can go into the little information tunnel with info on the history of the caves and things about them, you could do everything too! Also there are many little souvenirs you can get from the gift shop from stones to snow globes! There is a food stand to get quick food like hotdogs, burgers, fries and your basic drinks and sodas. Overall a great experience I recommend going to with...

We had...
Read moreI signed my boys (ages 9 and 11) to go on the TROG TOUR (kids only!) with a few friends. They had the most incredible time crawling through small cave tunnels, and discovering parts of the cave that are rarely seen. Their guides were Autumn, Jonathan, and Jim, were top notch. Very friendly and knowledgeable, great with kids, they imparted cool cave facts to the kids on the tour, as well as some good “Dad jokes.” The kids came out of the cave dirty and hot and talking a mile a minute about their exciting adventure.
I’ve been to Mammoth Cave many times in my life, but this was the first time trying a different tour.
If you have an adventurous son or daughter I highly recommend this tour, as well as Mammoth Cave...
