Straight out of an alien/scifi movie and for those geologically inclined adventurers, this reasonably explorable/lit cave is worth the visit. Carrying young children for 300 steps can be challenging and painful. A lot of work has gone through to make this tour be pragmatic and the effort is noticeable. An unexpected tour guide is present on the way and it gets a bit hot in there.

I booked on line for this cave tour and was easy to do with instant confirmation .Arrived 10 minutes early to show ticket and waited for tour to start which started on time. Tour guide was very informative, friendly, considerate of children and made sure everyone was aware of the tour process. The cave was much bigger than I imagined and took approximately 1 hour to see. The tour guide took us so far and then the remaining 3/4 was self guided. If you are elderly it's probably not the right tour for you as there are approximately 350 steps to the bottom and the same coming up. Some of these steps are steep, slippery and you definitely need to duck and bend at times as to not bump your head on the overhanging rocks. The tour from my experience is well worth it and something as I feel as must see. It was the very first cave to be discovered in the area and WA very first ever tourist attraction.

Incredible experience! The cave is amazing. They have just recently done up the Entrance and the shop. It's really lovely and modern. Huge amount of souvenirs. The staff were so lovely too. As expected, there are a lot of stairs.

Excellent Cave, tour guides are with you for ten minutes and then you are free to go at your own pace. There are a lot of stairs so it's best to take your time and rest regularly. There is a guide stationed in the main cave area if needed.
