Minors (under 18) that meet the weight requirements and have a waiver signed by a parent or legal guardian may participate, however, they must be accompanied by a responsible adult (18 or over). The responsible adult does not have to participate with the minors but is required to remain on the premises while the minors are on the tour, which takes approximately 3.5 hours to complete.
Comfortable, closed toed shoes are required. If you are not wearing closed toed shoes, we cannot allow you to participate. We do rent shoes at additional costs, but will depend on availability. Please dress appropriately for the weather. We suggest you dress as if going for a hike.

ARRIVAL
Our tours begin at the scheduled tour time. We recommend guests arrive at least 15 minutes prior to the scheduled tour time in order to allow for parking, checking in, etc. If you are running late, we will do our best to accommodate you on another trip that same day, if we have availability. No refunds will be issued to late arrivals – if you fail to show up for your trip on time, we still incur the same costs and may have turned others away.
