I've been to the crystal caves many times over the last 20 years but this time was by far the best. I wish I had more time to spend in them. The staff were so helpful and courteous. I loved every minute. Thank you. 💜💜💜
I was expecting to see stones, rocks and of course crystal as stated in their ads but I got really impressed how they presented the Crystal Cave. Went here with my family, entrance fee was affordable. You'll be greeted by their friendly and accommodating staffs. Lines of crystal were on display and for sale. You can also crack open ( for a fee of course) a piece of stone were it reveals if you got yourself a type of crystal inside. You'll be given a headgear torch and you can also opt for a headphone so you can listen to the narrative of the crystal you are looking at. Nicely presented place and area to roam around and see different types of crytals taken/ found from different places in earth. Great to take photos as lightings creats a nice reflection on the crytals.
The kids and I had an absolutely fantastic time looking at the collection, exploring the crystal cave and cracking our own geode. Really great fun for the whole family we found!
A dream place. Entering in the cave is like entering in a fairy tales, you can visit the cave at your own pace, taking your time to enjoy every room full of enchanting crystals and gems. The shop too is an experience out of the world. You can crack your own geode and buy amazing jewellery, it is really one in a kind. Amazing, if you are passing by in Atherton you definitely have to visit The Crystal Caves
Beautiful exhibit, reasonably priced, cracking the geode was super fun! We didn't get a pretty one straight away so they let us go again until we got a beautiful one! Friendly fun staff, would go again next time I'm in Cairns! Massive gift shop too, with some beautiful jewellery pieces and gemstones Only slight downside is it's a bit tricky if you have mobility issues, the ceiling can get quite low in the cave, but apart from that it's super worth it!
