HIGHLY RECOMMEND! The tour is thorough and personalized. There are so many formations to see and they are so up close. We went with our family of 5 and everyone was amazed! Photos don't do it justice…Full review by Leanne D

Fantastic tour with a great guide! Jack was funny, knowledgeable, and provided us with a great tour. The light show is not to be missed. We’ve always just gone to Mammoth, and I’m so thrilled we stop…Full review by KPWB21

Q:

A:
We showed up with three people and were put on the next tour. They run tours regularly and will schedule you on the next one if it isn't too busy. It should be easy for a party of two.

Hi, I am the sister of the owner, They do not have flush toilet bathrooms, their is a reason. They are on a limited water supply, being up on the knob. I know the Port a johns are cleaned every morning, and a few times a day. As far as Flash Cameras, YES you can use flash. You also get to take as many photos as you can. You will be very happy to see this cave. Enjoy, Hope you make it to Crystal Onyx cave. Hope I answered your questions.
