This place is so cool to see at least one time. Adult tickets were $22 and kids were $11. Our tour guides name was Katie I believe and she was amazing. We lucked out and got the tour to ourselves so she explained everything so well and we got lots of photo ops. My 8 year old thought these caves were so cool and the whole tour took about an hour and 15 minutes. The have a little gift shop too.

This place is a gem. So beautiful inside, our guide had a lot of knowledge of the cavern & made our experience so fun! The tour was about 1 1/2 hours. Only thing they could use drinks in the gift shop. It's a little far out the way but so worth seeing!

The cave was super cool, tour guide was knowledgeable about the property and was a really fun experience

One of the raddest experiences we have done. My husband and I went to go check out the caverns while visiting Branson. Jake was a great guide and always taking care of us. Well spoken and explained how caverns are forms and how rad they are! Do not skip this!!! 100% go!! You will not regret it!!!

This is a fantastic tour. The guide was great and a beautiful cave. The travel throughout this cave is a little more on a moderate level. Lots of stairs (steep/uneven), narrow tight paths, and low clearance. Now, don't be discouraged bc they have no problem waiting for you. They also offer a wild tour that requires ALOT more skill, but you end up going about 800 more feet back into the cave. This cave is still actively being discovered, which to me makes it more exciting. I would so recommend and wish our kiddos would have come they would have loved it.

The best possible activity choice when it's 95 degrees out is to go to a cave where it's 64 degrees year round! The drive from Eureka Springs was pretty quick but it is out in the boonies a bit. Our tour guide Landen was super knowledgeable and personable! We had a really large group but he did a great job of keeping everyone together and making sure we could all hear and see. It was really cool to see all the unique formations and hear the history of the cave. The sunken raft was wild to look at! I was super curious about the further sections of the cave, and there is a "wild tour" that's more adventurous that goes further out. Def one of the cooler caves I've been to! Recommend if you're in the area and looking for something fun to do.

Cool cave, and the underground 'lakes' are beautiful. The formations are cool, and the history is interesting. Our tour guide talked non-stop - maybe a bit too much. But the cave is way cool.

Celebrating its 175th Anniversary [Sept 4, 2020] There were many cavern tours to choose from in Missouri but we crossed over to Arkansas to check out this cavern. Cosmic Cavern is located in Berryville between Eureka Springs and Branson. We took a tour that lasted approximately 1.15 hour. There was a small group of ten of us including our tour guide, Lisa. We descended steep stairs, ducked through low hanging cave ceilings, walked through narrow passageways, and get through a few tight spots. The fascinating sceneries of remarkable stalactites, pure white soda straws that covered the ceilings of North Lake Passage were a sight to see. There was even a visible fault line above one of the sections we stopped. The best part was the room they called the "Oh My God!" Room... that was also the end of our cave tour and the start of the Wild Tour for the more daring folks. After describing what it entails I couldn't do it... it takes guts and probably some experience to do it. We saw two of several underground lakes inside the cavern that was pretty cool. The cave is well lit and it was 64° underground... that's year round so whether it's hot or cold outside you get to enjoy a comfortable steady 64° weather inside the cavern. We took the steps slowly, taking our time, holding onto the rails and sides of the cave. Our tour guide was ever so patient with us but while we were amazed at the limestone that surrounded us our tour guide was more amazed with my Mom. She was wearing wedge sandals in this tour! After our short adventure we were invited to have some cake on their upstairs floor. We each had a slice... yummy! We were able to knock $2 off each of the admission price in celebration of their 175 years of existence. Enjoy the souvenir shop on your way out. Review #1928

It was cool, not quite as big or in depth as Blanchard springs but it was pretty neat.

Just had a fantastic tour with Adam. It is a great cave and there is a ton to see and to learn about the cave systems in Arkansas. A big heads up, there are a lot of steep steps that are slick, so take your time. Also remember to duck.

The tourist trail follows a long, water-filled canyon along a fault-line in the limestone. Some steep, tight, twisting stairways would not be appropriate for some visitors. Having visited many commercial caves around the world, what I found unusual in this cave are the 9-ft long soda straws (!) and the abundance of helictites and its finer variant called "cave hair." As related by our guide, previous owners did some bad things like burning rubber tires to expel bats, and introducing trout to the cave lake, which ate the existing cave fish. After our tour, we ate our picnic lunch on the grounds. Lisa the cave cat came to our table and helped us with our meal.

Kady T.

Such an enjoyable tour and a great experience! A lot of remarkable history and the tour guide, Celina, was so kind and knowledgeable!! We will certainly be back. Bring cash if you'd like to tip your tour guide; that's one thing we wish we had prepared for ahead of time!

We didn't know what to expect on this cavern tour especially after reading reviews for several caverns around Eureka Springs but we are sure glad to have picked Cosmic Cavern. The cavern tour is a little pricier than some of the other caverns but it is over an hour tour and it is really beautiful. Make sure to wear good athletic shoes for the tour, there are very steep stairs and also some bending over to reach the deeper rooms of the cavern. Our guide Steve was very knowledgeable and was great at educating us about the cavern and its history. He is very passionate about the cavern and it shows on his guided tours. The cavern is still active and there are two lakes in there. The lights are well placed to emphasize the beautiful features of the cavern. Cosmic Cavern was definitely a nice surprise on our trip to Eureka Springs!

The staff was awesome from the start! We had a short wait for the tour so like any adult with no…read morekids along, I bought a bag of stuff to sluice for a diamond....or something. I came away with no diamonds but some decent sized stones, one of which was amethyst. The first cavern was the big one. It had some beautiful formations. We received great information from our guide and a little history lesson. Be sure to wear shoes with good grip as the stone steps may be damp as you go lower. At the bottom of the second cavern, you are 110 feet below ground level. Again, wear the right shoes as it is damp. The formations were beautifully lit for your viewing pleasure. If you are visiting Branson, this is just a little more than 30 minutes on down the road!

A must see if you are traveling in Arkansas…read more We were staying in Hot Springs which was a 3 hr drive but it was totally worth it! They have two caves but we only did the mystic cavern one due to time. They closed at 5. They also have a pretty extensive gift shop filled with crystals and knick knacks. The tour lasted about 45 minutes. Make sure your shoes can get wet because the cave floors were damp and had puddles. It can also be chilly in the caverns. Amazing experience! P.S I have to say driving up the mountain to get here was a journey in itself! There were not many pit stops to use the restroom and the only real food place was subway which was about 30 minutes from the caverns. They have a small community in the mountains but it is small and not everything is always open. Beautiful drive up though. Not for the faint of heart if you are scared of heights because there are many drop offs where you see the valleys 1000 ft below.

Feeling a bit hesitant at first to do it on bike but it was the best feeling. It was a perfect 68, clear skies and lilac blooms along the way. The perfection was almost overwhelming. A tram is also available for a round trip adventure but the bike was just too fun to pass up. Along the way we saw all kinds of little critters, snakes, fish and birds. Stopped at the tree house, chapel and most of the waterfalls. On bike with all the stops about 2 hours, walking could easily be 3+. Bikes are $15 each and I highly recommend getting there early so you have your pick cause the good ones go fast. Some have baskets and you should get one of those and then fill it with a picnic lunch. Little under $20 per person for entry, with discounts for veterans, seniors and children. Large parking but the place is popular, so again if possible arrive early.
