While I was expecting more "jewels", our Scenic Tour was made thoroughly enjoyable by our delightful tour guide. She was enthusiastic and knowledgeable. She spent time telling some of her personal stories spelunking the cave. Everyone in our group had a great time!

“Loved It!”

Seattle, WA


We took the Scenic Tour (1 1/2 hours touring the cave) and had a great time. We had our little kids with us and were worried that it might be too much walking for them, but it was easy and fun. The tour stays on either a paved walkway or a raised metal walking path, including some 700+ stair steps, but there was so much to see and it was all so interesting and exciting that we didn't really notice the walking. Our tour guide was terrific - full of funny stories and interesting information about the cave. This was a highlight of our trip and we all highly recommend it! Do bring a sweater along as they suggest - we were glad we had ours

“Good if u r a splelunker .. can be skipped if not”

Jewel Cave National Monument is truly impressive for the facts surrounding it, for its geology, intricacy, exploration stories and densiity of the cave passages. But this is all what u can read up and still go WOW.
For what u see (in the Nature Scenic Tour), it is a dry cave, with not many formations and so most of the time u r walking in passages(paved for u with staircases et al) or stopping in huge cave rooms all of which r not too decorated with formations. But there is one room called formation room true to its name and pretty nice.
If u have time and even a wee bit of curiosity after this review, and 9 bucks pp to spare, go for it. If u r worried that u will be missing something but don't have the time or resources to do it, stop worrying and instead plan to go to Luray caverns in Virginia. That was our first cave tour and the 3 other caves after that haven't come even a close second.
