Had a great time today with USA raft on our caving adventure. Our guides today were Ben and Les they did a great job! This was our second time caving and it didn't t disappoint . If you don't like mud or to get wet this trip isn't for you. If you don't mind you will have a great time belly crawling in the mud!

Took our 3 eight year olds caving at Worley's cave with Earth and River Adventures. This was a 100% natural, untouched, non commercialized cave. It was a bit more strenuous than I expected but totally worth it. Our guide, Josh, was great! We were with a great group of people who were so nice and helped each other out. Our kids had a blast and learned so much! Great experience!!

Don't underestimate the challenges of this cave tour, it is physically demanding and you need to be in good shape. You will be required to pull your body weight with elbows when crawling through very tight spaces and jump onto tall rocks while using your elbows to pull your legs up onto the rock. Definitely wear long pants, long shirt and hiking boots, it's slippery. You will be rolling in mud, walking in knee deep water on slippery rocks. My wife and I, took our 9 &12 year old and had a lot of fun. We all train in a gym and are healthier eaters, so we were conditioned for this challenge. This is not a innocent walking tour through a cave. Have fun!

We were a mostly inexperienced group of 12 and age 14-70. Our guides were very knowledgeable and patient or encouraging when needed. I don't think it was stressed enough the importance of hiking boots. I was very glad I had them and came out with dry feet, but most of our group didn't have them and had a very wet and slippery experience. Gloves would have been nice, but not necessary. Many small spaces to wiggle through and neat places to climb. If you're expecting many stalagmites and stalactites, with wooden walkways and railings, you're not going to see them. This isn't a cave of wonders in that regard. It's an old mining cave and very rugged. Good health is a must; we had an older woman with us who has arthritis and fell over and over, which made the trip tedious at times. I had a great overall experience!

We took our 10 year old grandsons to Worley's Cave with Megan of USA Rafting. She was a great guide. The boys were right in there behind her every step of the way. We were so muddy, I'm still soaking the clothes. But it was so cool to crawl on your stomach from one room to the other. I was amazed at what we could really do when put to the test. Loved it! However, the next time we go we will wear throw away clothes and shoes.

Make sure you check out this wonder. My Girl Scout troop went for a hike through the cave. Our guide, Alex was very knowledgable about the cave. You should be in good health and shape to take this trip. And make sure you wear hiking boots, not sneakers/tennis shoes. Gloves are a must. If you are scared of small places this is not for you. If you don't like getting muddy and dirty you might want to skip it also. You will be rolling in the mud...literally.

My wife and I went caving here with USA raft and it was a blast. The cave is a perfect mix of big rooms and small areas too! This isn't your run of the mill cave with lights installed and a casual walk. This is a get dirty real cave experience. Our guide did a great job of making the experience fun and safe. Would highly recommend this cave experience and USA raft!

Worley aka Morrill Cave Fabulous real spelunking but very safe . Brody our guide was very professional and very cool guy. Lucky us . It was just us two and Brody and his trainee assistant SheldonYou will not be repelling. The walk lasts about 4 hours -1 1/2 -2miles involving walking in lots of mud and over rocks -assistance provided if you need it .If you do it right you will get very muddy . bring a camera for photos when you get out . Inside camera would need to be waterproof.Our favorite option was the birth canal lots of slithering and squirming opening into a big room..Major highlight of our 3 week down south trip Try to hook up with Brody as a guide .

This was a primitive cave, I went with Watauga kayak guides to view the cave. This was an adventure, for me and my husband. What a trip. This is great for teens, and kids that love adventure. Expect to get dirty and have lots of fun.
