  The cave was amazing, the tour was worth every cent. This tour is suitable for everyone who can walk, and it offers access for those with mobility issues. There is... read more a short time when they turn off the lights so that you can experience the full darkness of the cave, but this is in the cathedral where everyone can sit down. We also really enjoyed the lights and music. The tour ends with the option of an “easy” or a “hard” way out of the cave. The hard way involves a bit of stooping and manoeuvring around some tight bends, but nothing too claustrophobic. We saw some extremely rare ferns growing in the cave, a a few of the micro bats as well. A great day out.

I arrived with minutes to spare, joining the 2pm tour. The lady conducting our tour was absolutely passionate, dedicated to the caves. She was funny and very interesting, adding to the experience.

Discovered in 1881 by a Norwegian immigrant, the caves were owned by the Olsen family until 1988, when they were purchased by a couple. Capricorn Caves are the largest privately owned cave system in Queensland. They are also a unique cave system.

Being claustrophobic, I elected to do a simple cave tour. However, for the more adventurous, it’s possible to do a 90 min caving experience. Highlight of our tour was the cathedral, when the guide turned off all lighting and played a superb piece of music, show-casing the acoustic’s of the cave.
