This cave system was discoverd by two schoolboys in 1881. It has been open for tours for about 120 years, and there are 2 different types of tours. The first is The Discovery Tour- Adults:$16.00 Children:$8.00 5 and under:Free. The Lantern Tour- Adults:$20.00 Children:$12.00 5 and under:Not permitted. It's open in the summer from 9-9 and in winter from 10-5.
The tour is very interesting and informative, well worth the money! There is also a laser light show at 9:00PM every evening from Memorial Day through Sunday night of Labor day weekend, and Friday and Saturdays in May at 9:00PM. Haven't done this yet but sounds like it's really neat!
Remember, you must take a tour. These coordinates put you in the parking lot for the cave of the winds.
