On October 4th we went to Raccoon Mountain. We have never been "caving" before, and didn't really know what to expect. We reserved our tour ahead of time. It was just two couples and our guide. After some brief explanation on what we were going to do, we headed off to the cave. We had SO much fun. I never... more

This is not as famous as Ruby Falls, but well worth the trip. We were the only two people there when we went, and they still did the tour, just for the two of us. The cave is interesting and easy to navigate, and the staff is friendly. There's a lot to see and the guides know their stuff. It's... more

Found out about Raccoon Mountain by reading reviews from Trip Advisor. Looked interesting so my wife and i decided to try it out. We picked a rainy day which was great because anything we would have done outside would have been washed out. It was a little difficult to get ahold of anyone at the office the couple days before... more

What a great family experience! I wasn't sure I could deal with being inside a cave for 4 hours, but I survived and loved it. Our guide was Jerry. We could tell that he loves what he does. He told us he's been caving for over 30 years and it shows. Jerry extremely informative and ready with answers to any... more

Just finished a "wild tour" with my son. We were both new to caving so the expereince was good and I definitely recommend it, but with a couple of cautions: 1) the tour guide is a crapshoot: you may get someone animated or you may get someone who is not very animated. Expect the worst and maybe you'll luck out.... more

HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!! If your vacationing in the Chattanooga area, Raccoon Mountain Caverns (RMC) should be on your to do list. Now, If your wanting a leisurely walk thru cave tour you may try Ruby Falls and RMC offers a beautiful walk through tour also, but, if your looking for a True Family Friendly “Adventure”. I highly recommend a “Wild” tour... more

MANY years ago, I used to do a bit of spelunking in north Georgia and decided that while vacationing with friends it was time to introduce the 8-year-old twins to the experience. The girl and her mom did the "show cave" tour and the lad and I did the "Eco-tour" wild-cave. I've been behind a desk for too long and... more

My husband and I went last May on the "Fossil Crawl" tour - a wild cave expedition that was about 2 1/2 hours, I think. We were on a trip to celebrate our 15th anniversary, so we didn't have the kids. We thoroughly enjoyed the tour and had no complaints whatsoever! We are now making our plans for our family... more

I just got back from taking a group of 39 on the Overnight Expedition which included the 4 hour Echo Room Expedition of the wild cave. In our group we had 21 children ranging in age from 6 to 14. I stopped by here in the spring of '08 for information and noticed on this trip that they have since... more
