FAQS

Is there an age limit? 

The Wookey Uncovered Tour is designed primarily for older children and adults who are interested in history, geology and storytelling. Children under 8 years old are not permitted on the tour due to the length and nature of the experience.

Do I need to book the tour before I arrive?

We recommend booking in advance online, as spaces are limited. Each tour is limited to 20 guests, so availability can sell out quickly.

How accessible is the tour?

The tour takes place inside the caves and involves extended walking, steps, and uneven natural surfaces. Because of this, the tour is not suitable for guests with mobility difficulties or anyone who may have problems walking or standing for extended periods.

The caves include approximately 200 steps, uneven or occasionally wet flooring, and some low sections where visitors may need to duck.
