Very good cave to... - Very good cave to appreciate Mother Nature doing her work. Our guide for the tour was excellent and informative. The stairs are hard work , especially climbing back up but well worth it.

A well worth visit with... - A well worth visit with unique features deep into the cave. Be mindful that there are many steps down into and out of the cave - over 500 in total. Fabulous experience especially how deep the cave is. Our guide was both very knowledgeable, engaging with the tour members and great sense of humor. 26thOct 12:00pm tour

Spectacular cave with a great guide - We toured Lake Cave immediately after going round Jewel Cave. It was a great experience, led by our hilarious guide Digby. His enthusiasm was extremely infectious. His love of the caves transmitted to everyone on the tour. And this is an amazing cave. We were apparently lucky to see the lake, because it is it is highest level for 70 years. I definitely recommend this. One points to be aware of is that there are a lot of steps down… And hence a lot back up again. It is not at all for anyone who is very unfit, although there are several stopping points with benches on the way up. I think they said there were around 300 steps. My Apple Watch said I’ve done 76 flights of stairs at the end of this day, which included both this and Jewel cave ,

Stunning Lake Cave - I visited with my wife & 2 children(10 & 12 years old) in the school holidays @ 11.20. Our tour guide was a gentleman named Digby. Digby was awesome, his enthusiasm & wealth of knowledge made this tour fantastic for all ages. His interaction with all guests (including a military assistance dog) was great. This was by far the best & most informative tour I’ve been on in a long time. The cave itself was full of stalactites & stalagmites with special features unique to this particular cave. Lake cave has the largest suspended table formation in the world. The lighting was also very impressive. I would advise booking online before the day as these tours are often booked out.

Well worth it..a stunning cave - I suspect guide Digby has a back story that could be made into a movie. His passion and enthusiasm make an already great experience even better. This is a beautiful cave and with such a quirky and fun guide, its made even better. You know he says the same jokes several times a day yet you feel he has made them up just for you which is a sign of a true professional, it was a terrific experience. Don't however take the recommendations about stairs lightly...the walk back is quite strenuous.

Stunning and Amazing! - Lake Cave has to be my favourite - a fabulous living example of the beauty of our planet. Kate is a terrific guide, who kept us informed and entertained throughout the tour. It’s difficult not to smile in such an awe-inspiring place. Very, very highly recommended!

Australian history and landscape at it's best - What an unbelievable experience. The scenery, history and landscape is unforgettable. The guided tour was brilliant. Our guide, Digby, was fantastic. It was so refreshing to see someone who is so genuinely passionate about what they do. He made the experience even bette. I could not rate this experience high enough and would not hesitate to recommend it to anyone. There is a bit of walking and a lot of stairs, so for anyone who might struggle, something to keep in mind.Other than that, make sure you do this. You will not regret the experience.

Beautiful! - Wonderful cave. The guides were great. Be aware, there is a long staircase to the inner caves, I think I was told 385 steps. My partner and I are healthy in our early 70’s and we negotiated them fine, but my I could barely walk the next day from sore muscles. I had to modify some hiking plans the next 3 days.
