Excellent cave tour. 800m of cave with three main chambers all different and stunning as were the interconnecting tunnels. Over an hour in the cave. Main emphasis on photo opportunities but the ice is so beautiful and varied you do want to take lots of pics. Our guide Bernie was very informative and also an excellent photographer taking pics of everyone on their phones in front of the various ice features as we went along. Recommend booking as early a tour as possible. We were second group of the day so didn’t have to wait around for other groups to get out of the way. It gets very crowded by mid-morning and for the rest of the day.
