I have taken Cave Tours in California and in Missouri, and would love to go on the Crystal Palace Cave tour in Chattanooga. Looking forward to visiting Chattanooga soon, and will be sure to attend this tour. The other tours I have been on ranged from 30 mins to 2 hrs. I think 45min walking tour would be the perfect amount of time to learn about all the natural beings found in caves.
Would definetly would like to visit the Crystal Palace and Sequoyah Caverns, just becaue never being to Tennessee and would be a great experience to look at caves, and do some sightseeing at the same time. Plus I am big country music Fan! Be able to go see some country shows, dinner shows, or the River boat cruise..
I have been on a couple cave tours but the Crystal Palace cave tour sounds amazing, I would love to tour that cave. The one I went was in Missouri it was a 3hr cave tour and had light shows throughout the whole cave, when you got to the bottom you saw what they called angels descending, from the stalactites and the staglagmites it had formed a huge sculpture of what looked like an angel with huge wings, it was pretty cool.
I think the Crystal Palace Cave Tour would be awesome to see. I love to studying fossils and rimstone pools. Touring caves is fun because you can see things not normally seen above ground I have toured caves in CO many times. I caint wait to visit TN so i can see this cave
I love visiting caves, no two are the same, I plan on taking a trip to the chattonooga area before too long and i will be sure to stop in at the crystal Place Cave tour.
This sounds like someplace I definatly want to visit. I like the caves of Missouri and have found them to be quite interesting. The Crystal Palace Cave sounds like something I really want to see.
I enjoy touring caves. This looks like another good one to visit. I’ll have to remember this next time I’m in the Chattanooga area.
I have heard Tennesse is a beautiful state to go to and I love exploring big caves, defintely a place to visit
