I recently visited Mammoth Cave National Park, which is only about a 1.5-hour drive from Nashville,…read moreand it was such an amazing experience! Seeing the longest cave system in the world in person was honestly incredible. We arrived around noon, and the parking lot in front of the visitor center was pretty full, but there's additional parking available in the back, which made things easy. We did the Historic Tour (the most popular tour), and it lasted about 2 hours. Our tour guide was awesome, super funny, informative, and made the whole experience really entertaining. One thing to know before going: there are a few sections where you have to crawl or squeeze through tight spaces, so keep that in mind if you're claustrophobic. But overall, it was such a cool adventure and unlike anything I've done before. The caves are absolutely fascinating, and I'd definitely come back to try some of the other tours they offer!

I thought it was closer to freeway but you soon realize it's a bit of a trek. Plenty of parking. You can purchase the tour tickets on site or online. Facilities are nice but a good majority(if not all of them?) of the interactive museum features were 'not functioning' so just wander and read all the details and stories posted along the walls. It's crazy that the place was a tourist attraction way back in the day. You'd have to plan for being on the roads for probably days to get here. Tour was cool. Very pretty. Out ranger was super personable and seemed to love his job so that's nice. Glad we decided to drop by and check it out on our way back from Chattanooga.

I have a 3 and 5 year old and they both LOVED it. It's short, sweet, and just enough "wow" without being overwhelming. The cave itself is really cool, with some tighter crevices that made it feel a little adventurous (my kids thought that was the best part), but nothing too difficult or strenuous. If you're worried about that--don't be. It's super manageable and moves at a good pace. Price-wise, it felt totally worth it for a family stop. They've also got a little gift shop at the end which my kids obviously needed to check out lol. If you're passing through, just stop. It's a fun, easy memory to make and doesn't take up your whole day. Would 100% do it again.

Also, unlike the national park, Diamond Caverns is first-come first-served with no reservations. I just visited the area for the second time, this time we had a lot of family members including small children. We did the early morning Mammoth Cave beginner-level tour and then went straight over to Diamond Caverns for their tour. Everything else in the national park was sold out for the day, but we went straight onto a Diamond Cavern tour with no wait and a group of 14 of us. The tour guide was very patient with the bunch of small children in our group. Overall, I highly recommend Diamond Caverns if you are in the area and interested in taking an hour-long tour that includes a lot of steps to get up and down to/from the caverns. There is some neat local history included as well. There's a full gift shop with beverages and restrooms available on site. No food, drinks, or bags of any kind are allowed in the caverns.

Abraham Lincoln's Birthplace is one of the smaller sights managed by the National Park Service but…read moreI highly recommend it. The administration building has a lot of historical facts about President Lincoln that are very interesting! The memorial building contains a log cabin similar to what President Lincoln was born in. There are many steps up to the memorial, but this memorial is handicap accessible if you take the ramp feature to the right of the administrative building! It's a short trip from Bowling Green, where I stayed and I highly recommend it. To the left adjacent to memorial is a building named Nancy Lincoln Inn but it is on private property and you cannot visit it. There is a marker for it though! I would highly recommend. It's a great memorial to arguably one of our best presidents!

This was the symbolic cabin representing Lincoln's birthplace nicely preserved inside a memorial building. Abraham Lincoln was born in a single-room log cabin at the Sinking Spring Farm in LaRue County KY. One hour was good seeing what's there including the Sinking Spring, water source for the Lincoln family and some short trails. In our case we just wanted to view the cabin in which Abraham Lincoln was born so we only spent maybe 30 mins at the park. The grounds are nice and well-kept. Abraham Lincoln was the sixteenth president of the United States. Review #3922
