They woke up when I pulled into the Kentucky Down Under, and were really not impressed as the large gravel parking lot across from a large truck stop was empty except for about three other cars. Wife and son had been snoozing while I drove across Kentucky. There are some steep steps inside the cave, as well as some very tight spaces, so plan accordingly, if you plan on taking the tour.

The cave tour was included in our Groupon and we enjoyed that as well. We rented a golf cart just because we thought it would be fun and shorten our time, since we had other stops on our schedule that day. There are lots of other animals to see when you walk the grounds and take the various trails. And after going to the short 30-minute 'show', my granddaughter just had to have a snake around her neck (me - not so much!). Couldn't get one off of my head, but a nice stranger came to the rescue. Granddaughter and I also went in to feed the birds, and they were really the friendly type. The employee that works in the kangaroo area was the 'kangaroo whisperer' and really knowledgeable, and a great 'people person'. Feed a kangaroo? Yes please! There was one Mom there with a baby in her pouch, but he/she only decided to show us his foot. We had our 9 year old granddaughter with us, and she absolutely loved the interactions with the animals. Check for availability if you're planning on a visit. We also had a Groupon - so that made it even more worthwhile. We got there when they opened, and were glad we did, as it was a long line out the door when we left about 3 hours later. We finally hit a 'rain free' day and this was a great place for it.
