And there is relaxing music playing throughout the Zoo as well.Ī great experience for kids, adults, and the whole family! It is a bit of a trek, but Louisville Zoo has restrooms, benches, and concessions throughout the campus to allow for any needed breaks. A very go with the glow kind of walk.Įvery turn you take is a new light up display you weren't expecting! There are so many animals, plants, and fun facts about each section! It's also got several interactive installments that make the experience even more fun. We went for the Wild Lights night walk and it was amazing! It lasted about 2 hours, and we were able to get in a little ahead of our scheduled time and there was no feeling of being rushed or pushed along.

It was definitely something different and fun to do. I won’t give away all the history and stories so there will not be any real spoilers from the tour but I will say this was a great experience and so glad a booked the tram tour. Shout out my tour guide Skeeter! He was the best! Great guide, extremely funny, and delivering an up beat, educational tour with a side of humor. It was awesome to see the inside and understanding the history and purpose of the cavern and it’s evolution.

My tour was the first of the day of a Thursday so that was probably why there was no crowd to follow but it added to the adventure for me! The price was $21.94 and the tour lasted a little over an hour. There was a gift shop, snack area, very nice restrooms, and an open indoor ropes course to the side. I made my way over and when walking into the underground welcome center was warmly greeting by seven or so staff. There are lots of signs and info but needed to be a little more clear and simple.Īfter entering through the side and walking down a creepy hall, I walk into this massive room and there was the tram, and across the giant room was a town façade and waiting area. I think those main tour doors needed to be construction orange or green with a big clear enter sign enter sign. There was not anyone else really around and even though there were signs I didn’t know what to do. I pulled up and drove around and found the location. I registered, purchased tickets, and signed wavers all online and via digital delivery. This adventure was the best idea, something different, and it did not disappoint. It was nice to see them patient with the kids. The staff was really nice and I’m glad they took the safety seriously. Not sure if they’re always this busy but so far, pretty busy on both trips. There was still a lot of people since there was a school trip that day and all the lanes were filled. We went back to try snow tubing and it was a much smoother experience. We will definitely be back to try snow tubing. We even got our 7 year old his first ski lesson here and the instructor was so kind. Our first experience was on a Saturday, not the best choice since lines were long (especially the board rental lines) but nothing we didn’t foresee. It’s definitely great for beginners and maybe intermediate skiers but I don’t know if it would be as good for experience skiers since the slopes are so limited. With that being said, Perfect North Slopes had a small “mountain” with limited trails. Obviously, when we lived in NY, there were plenty more mountains and resorts to choose from. Since we live in Lexington, KY now, this was one of the few places for skiing within an easily accessible range from us. We had a good first time experience and we even brought a season pass.
