    Mega Walking Tour FAQ

    What kind of surfaces will I be walking on?

    The surface trails consist of pavement, dirt, small rock and some areas of light mud.

    Please do take pictures and video with your own device and at your own risk.

    Do I need to take anything with me?

    We will equip you with a safety vest and a flashlight. You will be required to wear shoes and dress comfortably for 58-60 degree temps underground. Your shoes may get dirty.

    I am claustrophobic. Is this a good tour for me?

    There are no tight spaces and we won’t be asking you to crawl. The Mega Cavern is full of large open spaces.

    Is it dark?

    It is dark in certain areas of the Cavern. Most areas have some lighting and we will equip you with a flashlight for a little extra comfort.
