Kents Cavern Prehistoric Caves

I attended a little while ago for the first time despite being local to the area, firstly we stopped off for a coffee as it was very much needed first thing and I didn't have anything to fault with it, if anything I remember it being one of the better lattes I've had in the bay which is saying something. The staff were friendly and knowledgeable when booking making the process quick and painless. In terms of the guided tour this was pretty damn good, the tour guide was knowledgeable and engaged with the tour on numerous occasions, always happy to answer any questions put towards them and ensured everyone's safety in the darker areas. If you're looking for something unique and different from the daily grind I'd definitely recommend trying this out, either solo or as a family.

This was an amazing day out! We had Amelia as our tour guide and she was brilliant. So many punny jokes 🤣 she had so much knowledge about the caves and made learning about it fun. We will come again just to ask her more questions! Definitely a brilliant place to go especially when it's raining! The Woodland trail was not buggy friendly, so we weren't able to go around this unfortunately. It looked nice from where we were standing though.

Kent's Cavern - Fantastic geological marvel. Naturally formed over 500 million years. You cannot help but be in awe of this cavernous wonder. You have a fully guided tour who is informative and friendly and willing to answer all questions. I have seen they do special events in the caves as well, which seems a great idea. Such as Halloween/Christmas/Movie nights. Unfortunately... This attraction is not the longest and you could easily be in and out within the hour. Disability access isnt great but they do highlight this before you visit. I do feel soo much more could be done to enhance the experience and make you stay on site longer creating more of a day out of your experience. There is a woodland walk they have built but a lot more investment is needed to make it engaging. Money is tight these days, and i wouldn't even like to begin to imagine the amount insurance costs for something like this! and i hope it is protected forever going forwards... But to make money sometimes you need to spend money! and this is definitely one of those attractions.

Had a fantastic time in the caves today! We visited with our 3 children and arrived 5mins late due to having to walk from our accommodation and the gentleman on the desk was extremely helpful and moved us to the next tour which we truly appreciated. Our guide Alan was fabulous ; engaging, informative and knowledgeable. Really interesting tour which lasted about an hour but flew by as it was so enjoyable. The caves are well lit and it has good flooring - there was a granny in flip flops and socks on our tour and she managed fine! We had a cream tea after which were lovely and generous portions, the cafe staff were all very polite, friendly and helpful, we had a lovely time and would highly recommend thank you! X

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Highly Recommended Experience! An absolute must-do if you’re in the area. The caves themselves are fascinating – steeped in history, atmosphere, and stories that stretch back millions of years. Walking in and around the site feels like stepping into another world. A very special shout-out to Mark, our guide. He was engaging, funny, and crystal clear in his delivery. More than that, he was interactive and knew exactly how to bring the history to life, making the experience immersive from start to finish. If you’re looking for something unique, memorable, and truly eye-opening, this is one of the best things to do. I couldn’t recommend it more highly!

Very interesting tour of the cave system, our guide Emilia explained the recent and prehistoric history of the caves and it's inhabitants. A really good place to visit for small groups, families and schools. The gift shop has plenty to offer and the café served excellent food at reasonable prices.

Fantastic place to visit when in Torquay and well worth visiting if further away. Surprisingly large cave with excellent tour guides. I went in October so there were only 4 visitors so had a great experience with no crowds. Highly recommended!

We visited Kents Cavern with our daughter today and we all really enjoyed it. We bought tickets on arrival and got lucky with the timings as the next tour was just a 5 minute wait. Would probably purchase in advance next time. Our tour guide, Charlie, was really great. Informative and funny, he made the journey around the cave fun and exciting, especially for the little ones. Would definitely recommend a visit.
