I came to Jewel Cave to revive some of my favourite past times. I thoroughly enjoyed myself learning about this cave again and seeing the sights again also.
I arrived at the Jewel Cave where the same tour guide, Rikki, who led us through the Lake Cave yesterday, was conducting the tour. It takes about an hour in all and is quite spectacular, very different to the other caves. The final climb up all those steps is pretty taxing but a good work out. I had arrived early for the next tour (or missed the prior tour which I wanted), so they send you off on a 20 minute bush walk which is nice and relaxing. Rikki does a great job of highlighting all the different aspects of the tour.
The location is isolated. No buses to take tourists around these areas.Cave is great. The lighting effect is nicely engineered.Staffs are friendly. The cave guide and historian was excellent.Entrance fee is way too expensive for just 40 minutes roam of the cave. As for tourist attractions:To pay over a hundred dollar hotel, car rent, food, and over $20 cave entrance isnt worth it.
We had an amazing time being guided through this incredible cave. Stunning stalactites and stalagmites. Truly breathtaking. Not to be missed. Our guide Alan did a terrific job educating us about cave formations. He was informative, passionate about caves, and funny and personable. Highly recommended to anyone able to negotiate steps!Thanks Alan!
We took a day trip from Perth down to visit the caves - it is probably worth leaving really early in the morning if you want to visit all of the caves down here as due to time constraint, we only got to see two. The caves are fairly isolated and only accessible by private vehicle. If you're unfit, I wouldn't even attempt it - there is quite a number of steps to down down then back up! Our tour guide Liam was really engaging and quite knowledgeable. The tour itself seemed fairly rushed, not a lot of time to soak up the atmosphere before being moved along. If you want to have a bite to eat at the cafe, allow some extra time.
You just have to visit the caves in the area and like the others this one doesn't disappoint. Shows how beautiful nature is
Amazing cave to visit, so well worth the steps to the bottom. The stalactites and stalagmites were stunning. Guide did a great job.
this was the biggest cave of the 3 that we visited (lake, mammoth, jewel) and was our favourite of the 3 it was a guided tour given by Crusty who was very knowledgeable and was able to keep the tour intresting at all times. definatly the cave in the region i would pick to vivsit if i could only go see the one.
Great tour with knowledgeable guide (Rikki). We had fun, learnt loads about limestone formations and saw some truly special things. Café is a great venue to hang out to observe birds as well.
This is a must see adventure if you only see just one of the caves this is it! My son of 13 thanked me over and over for the chance to see this beautiful creation of nature. We both were in AWE of the all the "jewels" on the ceilings, wall and floor of this time kept marvel! You will be blown away if you have never seen this so make the time to do it on your next family holiday. I know I will cause my husband is yet to see it!
