Aillwee Cave, Ballyvaughan

It was an awesome cave. Probably because I love caves! Tickets we got were for the cave and the birds of prey show, which was also very cool. Regarding the cave, there was plenty of parking, just follow the signs. At the entrance, as usual there is a gift shop. Then the guide takes you through one of the doors that leads into the cave. Inside the cave was a little cold. There is also a flat concrete path all the way through. The guide stops at different stages to explain certain features or history of the cave.. (he was great too. At the end of the tour, you walk the last few metres out of the cave and there is a tip box for the guide. I didn't have any money on me, but I personally would have left some) Anyone can do this cave, unless you are claustrophobic, then you may want to re-think going in. (Although my wife is a little claustrophobic, but she made it) Overall, a very nice experience! I loved it!

We visited yesterday and really enjoyed the amazing caves. Our tour guide was excellent, interesting and very knowledgeable. They we went to the falconry. The birds are fantastic. They look so happy and well cared for. The staff were so friendly and full of information. The demonstration was great fun with lots of Audience Participation which was fantastic. The birds were amazing in the speed and skills. Wonderful to see them work. Well worth a visit.
