Our tour guide Cadence was really awesome!

Our tour guide Cadence was really awesome! She was sweet and kind and her jokes really just added to the whole experience. We came at a non-busy time so we got a more private experience which was so nice! Cave had very impressive formations and the guide was very knowledgeable on the history of the cave. Would recommend, however there are 140+ stairs you have to walk up and down so be aware ...

Very cool place

Very cool place. And always been told to avoid privately run caves in the Black Hills but that was poor advice when it comes to this one. Instead of driving an hour and a half down to Jewel Cave, we decided to check out wonderland cave, which was close to our rental in Nemo. Our guide Shawn took a minute to warm up but once he got going, he was a riot. Amazing rock formations in this living ...

Fair price for the 45 minute tour (ours was around an hour) of natural wonders

Fair price for the 45 minute tour (ours was around an hour) of natural wonders. Great information from our tour guide and interesting. It's around 130 stairs to get in and out of the cave; most of the areas are large and well lit, only a couple narrow and short ceiling areas. DO NOT TRUST GOOGLE MAPS to get you there! Be sure you end up using Vanocker Canyon road... DO NOT USE BETHLEHEM ...

What a great cave experience

What a great cave experience. Wonderland Cave is an absolute gem. My mom was visiting town and always wanted to see a cave, Wonderland was fortunately still open for the season so we chose them; it did not disappoint. We had a very short wait and then joined just a small group of people with a phenomenal tour guide, Sean. The cave was very impressive with lots of amazing formations to look ...
