Step into a world of wonder beneath the earth with our Highlights Guided Tour – a special experience, new for summer 2025!
Let one of our passionate custodian guides bring Poole’s Cavern to life as they lead you through its most awe-inspiring chambers. Hear fascinating stories, uncover hidden secrets, and see the very best the cavern has to offer, all during a captivating 35-minute guided journey.
But the adventure doesn’t end there! After your tour, take your time wandering back through the beautifully lit cavern at your own pace — with 20 minutes to soak in the atmosphere, snap some unforgettable photos, and relive the magic.
PLUS the cavern will be illuminated with atmospheric coloured lighting, transforming this ancient space into something truly spectacular.
