We did the explorer tour and it was really cool. Our guide was super knowledgeable about the caves so it was cool to hear about all the features as we went through. When we went into the cave it was snowing outside so inside the cave was actually warmer than outside. We also got to come out of the cave to a load more snow. It is obviously a pretty physical activity so we came out with a few Lil bruises from crawling around but neither of us got stuck in anything.
