Montana Geology Tours

The Classic Tour 2 hours is the best experience. The Guide was 4th generation with great stories and professional presentation. The path was well worn and drier now my last time here in the 80s. My knowledge of Geology was helpful in the identification of some of the outside parts of the limestone layer related to the last period of Glaciation and how it rose 3 million years ago over the newer Sedimentary Rock. Will take my Tours again as the Campground was lovely.

We took the “Classic Tour” at 11 a.m. Our guide Huckleberry was a nice mix between informative, funny & smooth. He led the entire 2 hours tour with knowledge & dedication. We always felt in good hands & safe during the entire tour. The tour itself was quite impressive. Exploring those caves and learning about how they started to exist and developed was interesting and informative. I can recommend experiencing this part of Montana’s cave history.

Wow! And wow! I know a lot of people did not discover this place yet but if you ever came across to Montana. You’ve got to visit this beautiful cave it is amazing and beyond amazing. The picture cannot even justify. I would say highly, highly recommended this tour you will love it.

I had a really great experience with our guild Dean on the moderate tour. He was very knowledgeable and had a great sense of humor but very stern when we weren't to touch something. Now the view of the surrounding area from up top at the cave entrance was just amazing. Definitely recommend a must go see.

We loved the main cavern tour. We hiked about 3/4 of a mile up the paved trail to the cavern opening. There were a lot of stairs but as active seniors, we could do it without difficulty. There are some tight places and a lot of crouching so as not to hit your head. The rooms were full of stalagmites and stalactites, rock shaped like ribbons of bacon, popcorn, and columns. It was incredible to see and photograph. We loved our experience. There is another tour that is more accessible for younger kids and mobility challenged people.

We did the two hour classic tour for the umpteenth time it did not disappoint. The tour guide was incredibly knowledgeable and introduced a lot of humor to the tour. The food at the café was great. There is ample parking. There are outdoor kennels to keep your dogs shaded and watered. The caverns themselves are absolutely stunning. If you do the classic tour, there is a brief uphill hike and the tour itself is about two hours. You do not get to see the paradise room with this tour you do however get to see everything else. Having done both if I were to choose one, the classic tour is much better than the paradise tour. If you are a native Montana and have not been to the caverns, shame on you!

My friend and I had the best experience while touring the Lewis and Clark caverns. Huckleberry was our tour guide, and we loved him! Our group had such a fun time. He was both informative and funny. We learned so much through our tour. 10/10 would stop here again if I’m driving through.

Very informative Paradise tour 1 1/2 hours describing the history of the area and discovery of the caves and the geology of the cave formation. Easy walks for anyone. Guide was funny and interesting.

There are 2 tours. 1 is 2 hours and 1 is 1 hour. I took the short tour for old people and small kids. Really cool, great guides and a good breakfast bar

Beautiful scenic drive up to the caverns. Paradise Tour is decent but only takes you a short distance into the cavern. The outside walk to the cavern is longer than the walk inside the cavern. Beautiful views inside the cavern but the majority of the tour is standing and listening to the very knowledgeable guide about the interesting cavern history. Would recommend the longer tour and would recommend purchasing tickets prior to arrival as tours do sell out. Nice cafe with very tasty food. Highly recommend the Bison Burger, fresh side salad and Huckleberry Soda💜
