Good Times!

Great experience! 4 adults in our party had a wonderful time exploring the caves! Mel and John were so knowledgeable and helpful. They let us take our time and really observe many nooks and crannies of the caves. So fun, it’s an experience we will remember forever and talk about for a long time!

    I can't wait to book another trip
    Appalachian Underground never fails to deliver a great trip! I've been caving for more than 20 years and Mel is the best guide I've ever had. She is knowledgeable, passionate about caving and all around fun! She was generous with her time, company and supplies, providing fanny packs full of snacks and bottled water, as well as gloves and knee pads to make the experience easier on our bodies. My group of 4 (3 first timers) had a fabulous time exploring Worley's Cave with her. Beginners can feel confident and at ease with how well she obviously knows the cave. Folks with caving experience looking for a little extra challenge will also get lots of opportunities for "side missions" to shimmy and crawl through small spaces. She's very gracious about providing opportunities without pressure to participate if something feels too challenging. All the stars! I can't wait to book another trip!

    So glad we did it!
    We were visiting the area with family from various places in the US. My sister actually did the caves with her husband and three kids age 15 to 21 first and they thought it was so cool in hearing them talk about I decided I should also do it with my two kids age 9 and 13. My brother joined us with another two more kids around those ages. Mel and Jon had a big group with some kids that at times can be i(n a loving parental description), ENERGETIC and UNFOCUSED, but they handled it well and helped a couple of the kids step out of their comfort zones. They were obviously very familiar with the caves and history which the adults loved, and knew the cool little nooks to climb into which the kids loved. I always felt safe and felt like the kids were safe. WE got exercise, we put screens down, we got muddy and wet and we loved it! Highly recommended!!!
