Kents Cavern Ltd Reviews

Amazing cave system, jolly and very well informed tour guide (Alan)! Would definitely recommend, nice and cool break from a hot summers day!

It's the most wonderful sightseeing! Such a special geopark. We had a knowledgeable guide called Simon. It's truly worth a visit.

Great experience and learning tour, the guide Derry was knowledgeable and entertaining

David (or Amy as he is on the weekend) is a brilliant guide. The tour is fantastic full of facinating facts.

Amazing tour of the historic caves of Devon. Very knowledgeable guides - like taking a step back in time.

This was a amazing find by the wife. We were looking for something to do whilst staying in Brixham up the road. Although a bit on the pricey side definitely worth a visit, it was great fun and very interesting. The tour guide was great, showed a real passion for his job which was nice to see considering how many times he must had already done it that day.

We have an annual pass & our daughter just loves it. It's a great half-term activity.

We visited her on a Friday. It was quite for them as we were the only ones on the tour of the caves!! Recommend booking tickets online!!

Brilliant. Entertaining and knowledgeable guide. Fascinating caves and history, and interesting small exhibition of relics. Our 7 year old granddaughter doing Stone Age at school and it complemented what she was learning very well. 4 year old grandson enjoyed it too, especially the slightly scary bits. Well worth a detour to see it.

The information given is very complete !! Wonderful place

Found this place while visiting Torquay.
Guide was very helpful and informative. They currently have social distancing measures in place.

The guide was very funny, and entertaining, kids loved it.

Very enjoyable visit. Guided tour was very informative and guide was knowledgeable. Cream team tea recommended.

Great place to visit. Caves were longer than expected .

Just been round Kents Cavern , we have driven by this place many times meaning to call in but never did, this time we called in and I am glad we did, the cafe and gift ship are worth a look but the cave guided tour brilliant David the tour guide made the experiance worth while his knowledge and deliver were brilliant thankyou.10/10

Took the 2 grandchildren to visit the caves the host we had was excellent and knowledgeable we loved the whole experience would recommend

Interesting Caves that are no doubt hugely important. However we were shepherded around too quickly in a group that was too large with presentations that were very dated.... Could be a great deal better!

The tour was informative and entertaining, the cafe served coffee with a wooly mammoth choc shape. What's not to like?! There were a couple of activities for my 1 & 4 years old which informed, educated and entertained them. Worth a mornings visit.

Brilliant, very informative tour, the guide (Sarah) was fantastic and it didn't feel like an hour at all! Bear in mind if you want to visit that the temperature is 14 degrees all year round so you might want to take a hoodie just in case.

Lived in torquay for 15 years and first time I'd ever been. My grandsons loved it. Well worth a visit

Brilliant. Entertaining and infirmative. Highly recommended.

Fascinating place, the tour guide was first class and made it even more enjoyable.

This place is great, good organised activities for kids as well as the tour,
The tour into the caverns is worth the trip.

Not very big but nice for an afternoon visit and the tour guides were good.

Very good. Simon our tour guide was very knowledgeable.

Fascinating insight into the past through these historic caves. A guided tour through the underground caverns of about an hour, with insight into how they were formed, rediscovered as well as tales of who once lived there. A few slopes and low roofs, but pretty easy to walk for young and old. A steady temperature of 14c so you might need a jumper. A good way of passing the morning or afternoon for anyone on holiday in the Torbay area. Also a woodland adventure walk outside, which is more challenging for those with mobility issues or if you have a pushchair as quite steep and some steps. A nice little cafe inside serving a range of food and drink, plus the customary shop with all the paraphernalia you'd expect from a museum type shop. Definitely worth a visit.

We enjoyed it the kids got a little bored as they are 9 and 6 definitely for older children.
The woodland walk was good tho and gardens were nice for a picnic

The tour was very good, just the right length and pitched well for all ages. The woodland trail is short but sweet. We spent about 2.5 hours here on a soaking wet day and loved it.

Well woth a visit. I use a walking stick and managed it with little trouble.

Great place, good cafe, interesting tour with a great and knowledgable tour guide (awful forced humour notwithstanding). Recommended.

Really enjoyed the tour. Much bigger and better than originally expected. The tour guide was very professional and knew his stuff. He was also rather funny.

Very interesting tour, the guide was excellent. The kids loved it.

Nice caves, not too bad entry price, just a shame you can't explore on your own, you have to have a guide with you

Visited here while on holiday in Dorset. We visited with our boys aged 12 and 14. Very interesting tour of the caves made even better by the tour guide Matthew. He was very informative and funny. We all really enjoyed it. Just mind your head on the way out of the cave as it's quite low. It was kind of my fault as I was faffing in my bag and walked into it. Sore head and lump

Been today, was fantastic, our guide was called Elliott, he was funny and made every one feel apart of the age of the kavern, although I did ask him at the end a weird question about has any one found any dinosaur bones under any of the kavern obviously before any humans arrived or bares for that matter, he explained to me the quick answer to my question, anyway was a fantastic few hours

Visited Kents Cavern on Sunday for the first time in a long time - forgot how great it was and enjoyed the added Christmas festivities. The free mince pie and mulled wine was . 10/10 for tour guide David, am still impressed by the caveman candle demonstration - I have already sourced some scallop shells (and a fire blanket) to create my own!

It was very exciting to walk around in this huge cave system. And the guide did not just do her thing and tell, she talked to us, she came to us and was very friendly.

Fantastic guide David made the whole experience very entertaining and incredibly informative.

Brilliant place. So interesting. Our tour guide Alan had a brilliant sense of humour and very informative. Must see.

First rate guide very informative definitely worth a visit

What a great experience to learn the history of the caves. Our guide gave us excellent tour, giving loads of information in an enthusiastic and entertaining manner, with interesting facts to appeal to all ages. We were never rushed, and Our tour guide was available to answer questions at the end.
Social distancing measures were in place and adhered to, and details logged for track & trace, so we felt very safe. We were able to book in advance online before we went & I would recommend doing so as it gets quite busy. They also have a cafe for you to use before & after your tour where you can even grab some local ales ! I recommend this for anyone visiting the area !

The cave system has a rich history and the tour was really interesting.

Cavern was excellent, fascinating to see such a well preserved prehistoric location. Some vegan options for food but alas no vegan soup the day we visited.

It was my first visit to kents cavern and found that it was'nt well sign posted, but when we got in and went round the guided tour, we were amazed by what we saw and the commentary by the tour guide was very informative and kept everyone interested well worth another visit.

This is a great guided tour. Ellie was my tour guide and she was friendly and helpful, and clearly knew her Cavern history. (I'm the guy that guessed the 'straws' Ellie).
Highly recommended!

Cool place (literally whatever the weather is 14 degrees Celsius in the caves!) really good guide, and interesting stuff to see.

Fascinating tour, guide did a great job (Amy?) teaching geology and archeology. Good value.

Great day out with the kids
Hasn't changed much in 30 years so could do with modernising

I loved it, a great guided tour with an amusing rep

Interesting visit into prehistory, "The Face in the Rock"

Very informative, easy to get around, loads to do for kids...

Really nice tour :) would go back as I found it really interesting.

Amazing experience if you feel like an explorer! Great adventure for young and older. Walk to the caves and feel what our ancestors felt like 50,000 years ago... No windows, electricity, TV, running water, just overwhelming darkness and silence and stalagmites and stalactites. Caves used to be a shelter for prehistoric people but also for some widest animals.....!

Amazing place to go. Great guide. Wish it was longer as its so intriguing.

A great historic place caverns are awesome.Aguide takes you around explains all the history of things found over millions of years up to the present day...

Loved the caves which were well lit. The guide was fun and knowledgeable and very entertaining. Small groups to keep things moving we walked at a steady pace with plenty of photo opportunities. Cafe was busy unsurprisingly as it was height of summer season but the food was fine. There was also a well stocked gift shop which was reasonably priced. Parking at the caves was busy and an extra charge, but there was some free on street parking or there was overflow parking a walk away which we were given a map to by the friendly parking attendent.

What an amazing place and I've gone back so many times when I go home. Fantastic tours by lovely people. It's a bit pricey but very much worth every penny. Highly recommended

Totally recommend it to visit The tour is at set times by a guide. The guide we had was informative and very entertaining. He clearly loves his job and people. We found all the staff to be friendly and helpful. The floor of the cave is concrete although it is a little steep at the start.Felt like stepping into the past once you are inside. Truly nice Caverns.

The cave tours are extremely well organised and they have put a lot of effort in to making you feel safe. Tara our tour guide was lovely - very knowledgeable and entertaining! Well worth a visit. Thank you!

The burger from wild boar was a bit dry for my taste, but maybe just because i like it more juicy. Anyway the place is nice and I am sure I will return there soon for lunch.

Very good experience, plenty of information from the friendly tour guide.

Good tour with Matt who was funny and friendly. Great wet weather location and the constant 14c temp keeps you cool if it's hot. Nice little shop and tea room too.

Very interesting. Great guide David led us through the caverns. A lot of information to take in. Well worth the experience.
