We did the 6 hour adventure tour. It was amazing! We repelled down over 60 feet in a vertical shaft, went though various squeezes (one called the "washing machine", and it felt like it) and viewed large underground pools. While it was somewhat physical, but I managed fairly well considering that I was 76 years old. I was super impressed with the guides, their safety protocols and the quality of their ropes and rigging. We were provided heavy coveralls, harness, helmets and gloves. They gave us very good instructions on how to tie-on and transfer the two safety clips. All and all, it was a great day out. Well worth the cost.

We did the Adventure Cave Tour with John as our guide and had a blast. None of our group had ever done any caving before, and this tour was a fantastic intro to the sport. John did a great job of providing humorous commentary and interesting facts about the land, nature, and the geology and history of the cave. The cave was about 5°, so I had double pants and a warm fleece sweater and a neck warmer inside and was comfortable for the duration. For the hike up, dress for the weather - it was -10° out for us, so I was dressed warm, but there was a tent to leave thick outer jackets and anything else before entering the cave. Good footwear is going to make a difference in the cave as there are slippery and wet areas. Take your time and watch your footing. Above all, go in with an open attitude - you might be out of your comfort zone, but it's so worth it! I would definitely recommend booking with Canmore Cave Tours!

My boyfriend and I had the adventurer tour with Brent and it was a fantastic experience. His demeanour, knowledge, and personality made the whole experience memorable. He gave us the confidence to feel at ease and sparked some curiosity for a new found activity. We want to thank Brent for the tour, and encourage anyone thinking about caving with Canmore Cave Tours to take the leap and do it!

A friend organized this cave tour and I was a little unsure of how it go. Surprising fun and educational adventure. Mainly due to the professional guides and high safety standards. I felt safe in this strange environment and enjoy the adventure. I would recommend to anyone wondering about trying this activity.

What can I say other than “WOW!”? Reflecting back on our experience with friends, we realized just how unique and incredible this adventure truly was. We enjoyed every single moment. Huge shout-out to Brent: thank you for treating us like adults who can make our own choices, without trying to instill fear or hesitation. In many tours, choices are often “suggested” based on perceived ability, but you allowed us to embrace each challenge as it came. The whole experience was educational, fun, and lighthearted—truly unforgettable. I can’t recommend this experience enough. I discovered so much about my own limits, all thanks to the supportive, carefree atmosphere you created for our group. The knowledge you shared was invaluable, and your demeanor was perfect. I felt challenged in a way that pushed me to grow without ever feeling afraid. This speaks volumes about the quality of the tour and the guidance you provided. Thank you for an experience we’ll never forget—one we’ll be talking about for years to come!

The wife and I are adventurous and booked this experience as we had never been caving, other than the usual guided path tours. It was an amazing experience! The hike up the mountain to the cave was an indicator that this was not your typical cave tour. After a brief rest we were ready to gear up and start our caving adventure. Our guide Brent was wonderful and patient with our group. He was thorough in his directions and detailing what to expect next. The trip through Rats Nest cave was filled with many interesting things to see as well as the opportunity to crawl on your back and belly through small openings. The rappel down a sixty feet vertical descent was exciting. Brent again was patient and thorough with his guidance to ensure everyone was confident and able to perform this safely. It was an overall fantastic experience that we heartily recommend to anyone willing to take on the adventure. I will admit it was a strenuous undertaking as I was exhausted after making it back to the cave entrance. Would we do it again? H*** yeah!

Looking for an activity to do with my wife during our visit in the Rockies, we decided to go caving and did the adventure tour. We were a group of 8 people, which is the maximum. We enjoyed the tour and the guide was very professional and calm. However, we spent a lot of time waiting and got pretty cold as we were often not very active. The cave system has a lot of tight passages and the activity requires a lot of crawling. If you don’t feel well in tight spaces, this activity is not for you.

A fun and unique experience not to be missed! Our guide, John, was patient, knowledgeable, and encouraged us to push past our comfort zones in a safe and empowering way. We learned so much about the history of the area and the cave and had a blast while doing so!

My partner and I went on the 6 hour Explore Tour for our anniversary and it was AMAZING! Our tour guide was super friendly, shot jokes the whole time, and shared great facts as we went through the cave. The guide also let us choose some paths, challenged our senses, and allowed us to test or psyche. If you are considering going, I would recommend the 6 hour tour. We got to explore more paths and it was not as tiring as you might think. Yes, coming out in the end it was nice to see the sun and rest, however, we never felt like we couldn't finish the tour in high spirits. Great adventure!

The tour was fantastic. There was a diversity of features and our guide was amazing. It was also fun to get a taste of caving.

This tour was incredibly fun. It was the first time we’d done anything like that, and I felt like we had endless questions that were answered so knowledgeably and easily. Our guide was amazing, she made the whole experience even better.

As real as it gets! It is a tour but is basically wild caving in tour form. Tiffany was a excellent guide, and we had a blast. Highly recommended, much better value for the money than most other paid activities!

This was an amazing experience. Not only was it an adventure, but we learned a lot too. Our guide Jaimie was very knowledge and led us on an adventure into a world I never knew existed. Super exciting and interesting.

I have been wanting to do a tour of the Rat's Nest Cave since I moved to Alberta over two decades ago. I should not have waited so long! This was a fantastic day of adventure from the hike up and down from the cave entrance to the cave adventure itself. Not a dull moment and our guide Annie was fantastic! We were a small group and got to experience rappelling down into the cave, several squeezes as well as total darkness! I highly recommend this adventure to anyone that it appeals too!

We did the four hours adventure tour with our fabulous tour guide Anne. On the half hour hike she talked knowledgeable about the forest and showed us fossils. In the cave she was super supportive and relaxed, showing us how to best get down or up without making us feel inadequate. The tour itself was amazing, difficult at times but doable. We were tired afterwards but happy. Our 13 year old remarked that this tour was better than video gaming
