We took about 300 plus kids here. The staff was very nice to accommodate our school. The kids loved the maze and the tour of the caverns. The tour guide could have been a little nicer :(

Definitely worth a visit! It is an incredibly beautiful and unique place. Imagine how this miracle of nature was discovered and the work it took to make this cavern accessible to us, Perfect for all ages. The car museum is really nice, too. So many rare and unique vehicles. Don't forget your camera and a light jacket.

This was a breathtaking experience for our whole family. The tour guide seemed very knowledgeable and it was great to hear how they came up with all of the names of everything. You can enjoy a car museum and a maze also. You'll be surprised by what they do with the money from the wishing pond inside the cavern. I... More

I've toured Luray Caverns seven times in my life. Each time was like the first - stunning. It is the perfect place to escape the heat of the summer for a few hours too. Take a light jacket because it's chilly on the 1.25 mile underground walk. Yes, you can take wheelchairs and strollers. I've been with my kids and... More

One of the world's most beautiful sights. The Caverns never fail to impress me no matter how many times I visit.

This was my third time (over 35 years) touring Luray and still loved it. The kids were fascinated. The walking tour is not too tough - but the guides kind of hurry you along a bit faster than you'd like. And the stories are a little corny - but that's what's cute about this kind of attraction. We were all... More

This place is outta of this world...You would swear you were either in a movie, or on a movie set. We went on a Friday, lines very brief, just wet and wild. Its not real ADA friendly as the poor man pushing his mom in a wheelchair can testify too, but they survived with lots of assisting pushing from friends.... More

I've wanted to visit Luray Caverns for a while now, but have been turned off by the highly touristy nature of the attraction. So after hiking in steady rain at Shenandoah National Park for an hour and a half, this seemed like the perfect day to go underground. When we pulled up into the huge parking lot, with its kiddie...
