The caverns were also used in the winter by Native Americans looking for shelter. Not sure if the still in the photos is an original however. There are remnants of many whiskey barrel rings and parts of a still. I didn't see much in the way of cave life but others said they saw a few frogs and other small creatures.ĭue to the availability of a river running through the cave and the remote location, the caverns were used to hide a moonshine still during prohibition. According to the guide this cave has one of the largest Onyx drip stone formations in the United States. There were lots of different types of formations and most of them are still growing. Turned out it was much better than I expected. There were also only a few steps going up as the entrance and exit have a ramp. Floor was pretty level in most places so mobility shouldn't be much of a concern. There were a few places where there was a low overhang but nothing too strenuous to deal with. I didn't expect much as the information suggested it was a small cave and the tour was only 0.5 miles round trip and a little less than an hour long. This museum is definitely for everyone who is interested in the Titanic and wants to learn more about it. The only thing I was missing were more things they actually found from the Titanic, like silverware or other personal things from the passengers. You are not allowed to take pictures downstairs but after the grand staircase you can take pictures just remember to not use flash.Īll in all it was a great museum, very informative. The 8 year old enjoyed it more than the 6 year old but every child is different.
They also have a youth audio tour which is designed for children. It's a self guided audio tour so you look for numbers in the museum and put them into your audio tour device. I thought it was pretty cool they give you a ticket and you get to be a person from the actual ship. It wasn't very busy and we didn't have to wait in line to get in. You have to get your tickets in advance and choose your time slot.
