Notes
There are so many
wonderful caves in the area that we recommend touring at
least one cave a day. Cave tour lengths vary from 30
minutes to 6 hours so you can schedule to your needs. It
is also very easy to see more than one cave in a day.
These itineraries are
just suggestions. We wanted to give you an idea of the
variety to do in the Caveland area. Feel free to mix and
match any activities. For more information on the area
call the Cave City Convention and Tourist Commission at
