Gorgeous cave with incredible formations and interesting tours. Guides are knowledgeable and entertaining. Displays in Discovery Center are educational, very well  done. Excellent gift shop. On-site cafe has good food. Reservations are a must for the tours, at least a month in advance.

There are a couple of good hikes here too. They have several covered picnic tables by the parking area. The campground has large level RV sites with electricity and water, but must use the dump station nearby. Campground restrooms are clean and have large, dry, free showers.

This is a fabulous place. Highly recommended.

An experience you’ll not want to miss. The Caverns are stunning and positively Mother Nature at her best. The formations are incredible! The story of two young men discovering the caves, keeping them secret until a preservation plan could be established and the absolute devotion of the staff & volunteers. These are living Caverns. There is a spiritual sensation as you witness the ongoing development drop by drop. The gift of protecting these beauties yet opening them for our amazement is a tribute to the State of Arizona. Our great, great grandchildren will be able to see them exactly as we do today. Experience them. You won’t regret it.

Beautiful place. It was worth the trip. The caves are awesome, the tour guides are very friendly and can answer to all of your questions about the caverns. The only minus I would give is the light inside. Could be brighter, I've been to other caves that had better light inside. Oh and take your glasses, you will want to wear them after you exit those dark caves

We did the Rotunda/Throne Tour and it was absolutely wonderful. It was very educational and informative about the discovery of the cave and how the cave was formed. Our tour guide Eric did a great job. Even had a few good jokes. We'll worth the money. Go see it.

We saw the Big Room. Once in the actual Cavern it was interesting, beautiful and muggy. Our tour, Star, was knowledgeable, friendly and humorous - 5 star. The park is very processed. Star said that all the rules and regulations are to protect the Cavern and to keep it living. It is completely handicapped accessible. I cannot share a picture because you cannot take any. Worth going!
