This place seems like a good alternative on a Hershey trip. We began our journey within 10 minutes of purchasing our tickets and walked to the entrance to the cave which was not a long descent with the other 10 visitors. The cave is damp and always in the 50's so you may want to bring a light jacket. It... more

Very cool. Worth the price if you've never been in a cavern. I don't know how it rates against others, but this was beautiful. Print the $1 off admission coupon from their website!!! Nice gift shop, too. Tour groups form constantly throughout the day, but be prepared to wait a few minutes if you just missed one; gives you time... more

We had a good tour guide, but a guide is only to HELP you experience the cave. Good service at the front counter, our tour left with in 10 minutes. There was a nice park for the kids to play in. The mining wasn't open :(. If you have a candlelight or nightscence setting on your camera you may want... more

I am writing this review to let the other people know how the guided tour can be irritating some times. Although I lived in Hershey for few years I didn’t had an opportunity to visit Indian caverns. We had couple of guest and I took them to Indian caverns few days ago and the guide assigned for us seems like... more

A great diversion if you are in the Hershey area. The caverns are beautiful and our tour guide was witty and knowledgeable. He still seemed to enjoy his job even though I am sure he had gone into the caverns thousands of times. The caverns are fascinating and give you a great appreciation for how the earth's geologic forces work.... more

We took my 3 and 6 year old children to see the Indian Echo Caverns. This was there first time in a cave and I was curious what their reaction would be. You may have read about the 72 steps it takes to get down to and up from the cavern. I didn't find the walk too tiring and a... more

My sister and I took our niece (age 9) and my sister's goddaughter (age 8) to Indian Echo Caverns on August 16, 2007. We planned to go to Hersheypark on the same day but Indian Echo Caverns made a nice first stop since it was raining that morning. The Caverns also open an hour earlier than Hersheypark. Yes, there are... more

Awesome!

I will admit I was skeptical about going to this cavern. We had not planned on going here. I knew nothing about this place other than what the brochure told me. So with a few hours to kill and a really cool brochure we decided why not and drove over to the Indian Echo Caverns. I was not disappointed. After... more

If you're going to Hershey Park you MUST stop here! I've wanted to see stop here ever since seeing pictures of other caverns on my viewmaster as a child. I'm sorry I waited so long! I brought my two kids and my mother with me, and we ALL loved it. Be advised that you will be doing a good amount... more
