Why You Should Go...
Discover Eastern America’s largest and most popular caverns. Four million centuries in the making, this must-see U.S. Natural Landmark is noted for its profuse variety of formations and unsurpassed natural color.
One-hour tours from well-lighted, paved walkways lead visitors through cathedral-sized rooms with ceilings ten stories high. Enormous chambers are filled with towering stone columns, shimmering draperies, and crystal-clear pools.
The general admission rate includes the attraction entrance fee, Luray Caverns guided tour, a self-guided tour of the Car and Carriage Caravan, and access to the Luray Valley Museum. Typically, the walking tour of the caverns takes a little over one hour and covers 1.25 miles.
Tours are self-guided, and you now enter the caverns with the party you arrived with and are asked to maintain social distancing. Visitors are required to wear face coverings while touring the caverns.
