...got any top tips?

To make the most of your cavern tour make sure that you bring something warm to wear for everyone in the cavern. The cavern is always 7c and can drip with water (it makes the crystals grow). The cavern never floods but a river does flow through the cave. Its a great place to visit on a rainy day.
