We are offering a new bespoke experience which begins with an insightful talk delivered by our  Event Guide as they tell the story behind why the Marble Arch Caves is one of the most active river caves in the UK and Ireland. Glimpse behind the scenes at the Marble Arch Caves as you discover where the three rivers that flow through the cave come from, how they are monitored and how they impact the natural cave environment and the daily operations at the show cave.

You will then have an opportunity to get a unique view of the subterranean world of the Marble Arch Caves via our new Virtual Reality Experience. Equipped with just a VR headset and simple head movements, visitors will be instantly whisked away into this subterranean world where they will get to ride on a boat along the subterranean river, hear and see the underground river as it forges its way through chambers adorned with simply sensational formations and explore the show cave.

Finally, visitors will be given the opportunity to explore the Cladagh Glen and visit the  Marble Arch Caves Resurgence (Cave exit) to see one of the largest limestone resurgences in Ireland.
