Kents Cavern Ltd Reviews

Tour is educating and fun. Tour guide Simon was lovely and welcoming. Cave is warm all year round. There is also a cafe for a bite to eat/drink.

It was different, my 8 year old enjoyed it even though we felt it was a bit young for him. We also had our 11 year old who still believes but it really was way too young for him. To be fair most places are, we are just trying to keep the magic alive for both of them. The Father Christmas was good, he chatted well to my two boys about football. It's a shame there isn't any record of children's names taken so they could be called up by name, maybe in age order, so it would keep the illusion FC knows all Children and be a little more tailored to them, overall though we did enjoy it.

Great place to visit, especially on a rainy day in torbay. It has good aminaties (parking, cafe, gift shop, bathrooms) and is close enough to the town centre. This is good for all ages and abilities as the attraction seems to be fitted with ramps and accessibility equipment. Only down side is the price, to be honest it is quite pricey in season but for the historical and geological educational benefits it is worth while.

lovely Caves, Tour Guide David was Great would recommend.

Great visit tour guide was very good explained clearly about the caves and there history good experience..

great place to visit, the guide, Joe, was excellent and very informative recommend this place to anyone visiting the area.

Very good experience while learning about its history. Our tour guide Amber was very friendly and knowledgeable and really made the trip worthwhile

An interesting place to visit if you like a history lesson, also food and beverage available

Interesting and very educational not only for kids but for adults too. Definitely worth the visit, if you are ever in Torquay this must be on your to-do-list.

Good to see the cave with a very informative guide. Interesting and suitable for both adults and children

Good historic knowledge displayed by guide. The cafe has good pasties and kids boxes too

Fascinating tour! I've been here at least 4 times now, and each time there has been new things to learn. Themed tours are especially enjoyable. Always great tour guides too.

Our guide was brilliant! A nice chap called alan. Would definitely visit again!

Great place to learn about the geology of the area, quite dark but really good fun!

Nice tour but unfortunately have to wear masks even if you suffer from a chronic respiratory illness, as stated by our tour guide, so not ideal for those with breathing issues and unable to wear masks.

Good informative tour for the kids but actual facts about the cave very limited. Having visited caves all over britain and europe I can say this is nothing special and overpriced too. Unnecessary strobe light show and no access to deep in the cave and Greedy to charge for the car park too.

Very friendly the tour gay was very funny and did make the time and experience very good highly recommend

The caverns themselves are pretty small and to be honest I expected more for my money as its not a cheap venue to enter. The guides are very knowledgable but just felt a bit ripped off.
The cafe on the other habd is great really good food and generous portions for a very reasonible cost.

Our first ever experience .Tour gadget Cara was absolutely brilliant !Not too long or short,exactly what needed !We all glad we did it !

Our guide David gave us a very informative and light hearted tour around the cave. It only lasted an hour but was worthwhile.

Really interesting and friendly tour guide Alan was great

Tours are around an hour long & the cave complex is magnificent. The restaurant has a good offering, the food is tasty & very reasonably priced. Definitely worth a visit!

Enjoyable, but for the price you seem rushed through and don't give time for photos

Would have been a great experience but unfortunately I could not hear the tour guide because of screaming kids, why do parents take babies to these events?

Modern tourist centre building sitting above prehistoric caverns. How far we've come.
Staff really informative and helpful.

Lovely place information provided was excellent from dave

Really fascinating, delivered by an enthusiastic tour guide (Elliott) a "must see" you are in the area. Good family event. Well done!

Father Christmas experience, fantastic, well thought out and acted. Lovely staff including the restaurant and shop.

Took my 6 year old and we both really enjoyed this tour around the caves. Fascinating. Learned a lot. She really loved the gift shop too

Good tour guides, great history with a good shop and cafe -good value

Great place to visit to kill a couple of hours, kids thought it was fantastic and loved the shop at the end.

Visited today (Wednesday 29th October and attended the 14.30 tour which was conducted by a new member of staff (ursula) I would like to say that we all found her a very pleasant and knowledgable individual who made our experience an enjoyable one. Thank you.

Great place to visit no matter the weather. Coffee shop is lovely and the guided tour is well delivered, we had Holly who was very happy to answer questions and demonstrated enthusiasm at every opportunity. Very recommended will definitely go again

Really informative tour guides, a wealth of history to be found in the caves. Worth a visit.

Nice place to visit but don't plan on a full day there

Great place, awesome history, David was a brilliant tour guide

A few more well placed props and I would of given 5 stars. Maybe a bear in bear lair.

Fantastic tour. Guide was very knowledgeable and amusing. Loved it.

It is certainly not a must, but it is nicely done. The tour is in simple language so that you can follow it quite well. The garden is amazingly southern.

Pleasant venue with good guides who add a little poetic license to the tour. Enjoyable hour plus visit well worth the effort.

Because it is a great place of historical interest. Everyone should put this on their to do list

Great place to visit to learn about how stalagmites are formed and how our prehistoric ancestors from the end of the ice age survived, our host tour guide Dave was very informative and humorous, caves are not too cold either, I would recommend this as the place to go if you re in the area.

The caverns are a great place to visit. Our tour guide, Tom, was brilliant mixing facts with jokes and getting us to ooh and ahh over each new stop. My favorite was the shells at the end I won't spoil it by saying why. The Caves have 9 steps and one part with a ledge but my son's buggy which is larger than average fitted with a little lifting and the tour was worth it. There is also a woodland trail which is not pushchair friendly and activities which are fun and either free or for a few pounds each.

Fantastic morning spent at the Caves. The guide was funny and informative. My kids really enjoyed the experience. Its run very well. For a busy wet day the tours were running every 20mins or so. We enjoyed the Woodland Trail and Exhibition and Activities too. Worth every penny.

Excellent guide, nice and quiet when we went. Who doesn't love a cave!

Staff was really nice and cave is just beautiful. Love it!

Lots of science/history and lots to see. Very beautiful

Went to visit Santa really enjoyed the whole experience and Santa and his elves were brilliant with the kids.

Fantastic place to visit, so worth it was so fascinating, very friendly staff and food was absolutely amazing there

This has to be your sort of thing, luckily enough it was my sort of thing. Our host in the caves was great, explaining each cavern and was throwing in a bit of humour aswell which got my wife interested in what was going on which made it better for me not having to explain everything for her. The guided tour took around an hour and was well worth it. The gift shop here is GREAT!! NOTHING is over priced, we spent quite a bit just because of how reasonable the prices were. I would recommend this to everyone!!

Great place to visit. The tour guide we had was great (he's called David). Would really recommend to anyone.

Really enjoyable guided tour of this heritage site. Staff were incredibly knowledgeable and friendly. Highly recommend a visit if you are in the area.

Great afternoon, very interesting and worth a visit!

Who knew caves could be cool and interesting?! Genuinely impressed.

really informative tour by Poppy, great info on the history and geology! plenty of entertainment for the children and fascinating stories about the beasts which once roamed the caves. recently updated restaurant with tasty food, snacks and drinks.

2nd time we have been, our tour guide Ursula was extremely passionate and entertaining with her tour, and as we were a small group she stopped to show us things we hadn't been shown before. Great day out, our 8 year old daughter loved it. Food in the restaurant was also lovely and staff that served us were very friendly

Massively over-commercialised and a tour that probably went on longer than it could have. Food in the cafe was brilliant, though!

Really excellent tour of the caves by Tom our guide, who made it a fun and educational event. Actually it's the guides who lift this from yet another set of stalegtites into something fascinating and relevant to local history/geology. Good social distancing measures in place for Covid, which meant that we didn't have to wear masks in the cave. The cafe was also efficient and good quality, and the organisation of the tours businesslike and effective. Online booking is best. Parking on site is plenty for the reduced footfall with Covid.

Did the Santa in the caves. This has become an annual excursion, have been going with the family for 3 years now. They always put on a great show in a fabulous location. Lots of interaction for the children and decent Santa presents too.

took 3 of my grandchildren to see Santa....would recommend this for both children and adults, lots of interaction, started with the children knocking on the door to enter the caves, meeting the elves and fairies, lots of singing and the highlight of seening Father Christmas, the children got great presents too.

We really enjoyed this place the tour was well worth the money, the kids got to learn a great bit of history aswell

Very impressed hard to believe the caves are in the middle of a town surrounded by houses .
Tour guide Hannah very enthusiastic and knowledgeable Highly recommend a visit

Great experience! Our tour guide Sarah was fun loving, information and I had no idea that there was so much history to the Kent's Cavern - would 100% recommend.

Interesting trip through the cavern, very pleasant staff and good food in restaurant

Dave was a brilliant tour guide and had wonderful stories to tell both funny and informative.

Brilliant time for the whole family. Kids loved it and learnt about the local history. Will be returning when visiting the area next
