    Amazing Cave and Great Tour Guide Adam
    It was a very entertaining yet educational experience. The cave was beautiful, magical and mesmerizing. I would love to come back again. Adam our tour guid walked us at our own pace, answered all our questions and told all about the cave formation, exploration history and modern day discoveries of different cave entrances. He was very knowledgeable, easy to talk to and very helpful. We loved his tour!

    One of the best cave tours I’ve ever done
    The Marble Arch cave tour was spectacular. The views were otherworldly, and our guide Adam really made the experience even more vivid and compelling, telling us facts about how the caves were formed and first explored. He moved at the perfect pace, allowing us to take pics and fully explore each area. I highly recommend a visit to Fermanagh. When you do go make sure to add Marble Arch caves to your agenda — the staff are all so friendly and knowledgable.

    First Ever Cave Experience!
    This was FIRST ever cave visit. WOW! What an amazing experience. The boat ride in particular was really neat at the beginning of the tour and the remainder was equally interesting. Our group of eight adults really enjoyed the adventure. Would highly recommend!

    Must visit centre , world class
    Amazing trip to the caves, very cold day I. December but less cold underground! The guide Kieran was fantastic in keeping the right level of safety conscious information and humour, as well as his knowledge, fantastic trip and even though the boats were off today (low water levels) we didn’t feel short changed. Also walked around the kids Elf trail and this was so thoughtfully laid out well done to there organisers. This is a MUST visit destination if you anyway close by. Thanks all.

    Brilliant tour, Super Interesting and Highly Recommended
    Absolutely brilliant and interesting tour of the caves with the lovely Victor. We arrived, at a rare quiet time in terms of visitors. My fiancee and I received a 'private' tour. Victor is incredibly knowledgeable on the geological history and formation of the caves. He also shared how the caves were gradually discovered by explorers over a couple of hundred years. He was the perfect tour guide. Passionate about the site. Took time to answer questions and shared interesting anecdotes about the naming of rooms and formations in the cave. Highly recommend a visit here. If you're lucky you'll get Victor but given how friendly staff were throughout the site, I'd bet the other guides are great too 😁 Thanks Victor Tom and Lorraine

    Fantastic - first time visiting and will be back!
    Fantastic place to visit. Staff are very friendly and knowledgeable. I have never been before but was amazed at what I was seeing. Our guide was so knowledgeable and funny, explaining everything we were seeing as we were walking around. She also gave us plenty of time to take photos. We were unable to do the boat trip due to high water, but got a partial refund and will definitely be back to see. Great cafe, gift shop and facilities also!

    Great day trip for the family
    A lovely day visit to the Marble Arch Caves. A memorable and relaxed tour guided by Jordan who did a wonderful job. He grasped our children's attention and was great fun. Lovely lunch then had in their tearooms. Very tasty and a great range. Toilet facilities spotless. Lovely gift shop with a wide variety of gifts.

    Well worth the visit!!!
    We had a fantastic tour of the caves. Our guide Jordan was very informative and had a great sense of humour. The formations of the caves were amazing and the visitors centre had a lot about the history of the caves. The shop is well stocked with memorabilia and there is a cafe and toilets. No boat trip which was a bit disappointing!!

    Fascinating experience
    We visited the Marble Arch Caves on 10/02/24. We were informed prior to our arrival that there would be a reduced tour due to the water levels in the cave. However, our tour guide Victor made sure that we made the most of the experience. Victor was very welcoming and provided us with an informative and interactive tour. He was able to answer all of our questions and shared his enthusiasm for the caves. As it was my birthday, Victor made this a trip to remember by helping to take plenty of photos with his happy birthday banner. Following our tour, he signposted us to several other activities nearby and kindly left an envelope for me at reception with leaflets and brochures of things to do. He was a pleasure to speak with and we look forward to visiting the caves again soon in the better weather.

We had a great tour with Majella, who was extremely knowledgable and had brilliant jokes. She is a natural in front of a crowd and really made the shortened tour enjoyable and informative. It was a shame that the cave was flooded so we had to do a shorter route, however it was still good. We will definitely be back when the weather is better to see more of the caves! Well done and thank you Majella!

Stopped off here on the way home from Donegal and was lucky to get the last two places on a cave tour. Extremely helpful and friendly Receptionist - Claire and amazing tour guide-Keely I think?
Free car parking and you can take a picnic as there are tables dotted about. There is s also an on site cafe. You can walk into Cladagh Wood and see the cascades along it’s river walk or view the wild flower meadow. The gift shop on site promotes local artists/goods which are really well priced.
COVID restrictions apply which was good to see but unfortunately this meant to boat trip element of the tour could not operate but this did not detract from these caves and the sheer size and scale of them. The tour groups were small, about 12, which meant you were able to hear and see everything. Tour was entertains and I loved hearing about the streaky bacon, cauliflower and the engaged couple / all will be revealed on the tour which lasted for an hour and the time flew. Great value as £10 per adult and £25 for a family ticket. Will go back again when the boats are able to sail again

Have always wanted to go back to the Marble Arch caves since visiting as a child with a school trip. So I did. The caves themselves were fantastic. Loved it. However I feel there should be an Adult’s only tour option. I love kids and all but the group I was with was was quite annoying due to talk of unicorns and constant crying. An adult group would have been good as we could have some decent adult conversation and and the opportunity to ask sensible questions to the tour guide without being being drowned out by screaming kids.

Fabulous activity, great tour leader Joshua, very knowledgable. The centre set out very well, hand sanitisers throughout, social distancing markers. Masks also mandatory, I loved fact the guide had a face shield which allowed us to hear all (we were at back of the group). The tour was not rushed, lots information, everything explained well & photos allowed. We also used cafe- great prices, lovely staff and seats were socially distanced. Was also informed of local free attractions & walks lovely touch. Grounds, picnic benches, car park, toilets all spotless. I’ll be back again when COVID goes to redo same with the boat ride

We had a fantastic tour lead by Joshua. So knowledgeable and delivered the tour at a nice pace so I could take pictures and take in be surreal surrounds . We listened to the cool stories of discovering the caves and how the caves formed. So much to take in but was explained to us using fun metaphors then made it so interesting!
Would definitely recommend a trip her! Where good footwear! Masks must be worn during tour and hand sanitizer was available.
Overall a very enjoyable tour. Thank you Joshua!

Excellent and enlightening day out with the kids! Have been meaning to go for a lifetime but it took for the ‘next generation’ to get us there. Joshua, our guide, was a lovely young gentleman, both entertaining as well as very informative and made the entire experience fun. We felt safe and excited in equal measure and it was very apparent that he wanted us to enjoy our visit - hats off to him!!

When monosyllabic teenage boys and their wee sister are telling you it was one of the highlights of their summer and really glad they were woken at silly o’ clock on a Sunday morning for the drive to Enniskillen/ Blacklion it says it all!

The caves and surroundings are magic and my text simply cannot do them justice- a real privilege to visit!! I’m embarrassed to admit its taken me so long to actually visit what surely is a must for anyone’s stay on our beautiful island!

We booked to have a tour around Marble Arch caves and we absolutely loved it! Our tour guide Ben was very friendly and knowledgeable and welcomed any questions that we had. The caves were far better than we could have imagined incorporating some of natures finest creations. Our only disappointment was the boat was out of operation but this didn’t distract too much from the rest of the tour.
I would recommend this venue to anyone although accessing it via some very steep steps might be difficult for some people. Well worth a visit!

If you have never visited an underground cave network then this is a fine example. Visited on a wet Saturday so got an authentic experience of water running down the walls of the caves. The tour takes about 1 hour and with reduced numbers on the tours, advanced booking is recommended. Be warned that you climb down steps to enter the cave network but worth it when there. Tour guide Majella did a great job.

Brilliant tour, maeve was very knowledgeable and friendly. Great value for money. For those worried about feeling claustrophobic, please don't. You can walk upright the entire time, ceilings are high and it feels very safe.

The underground cave system was amazing, very well laid out. Quite cold underground so wear something warm. Our tour guide Daniel was very informative and friendly, after the tour he also took time to recommend other walks to go on in the Geopark and other places of interest in Fermanagh.
