This place is soo cool Carlsbad Caverns!
We went when I was a child as a field trip I think they still do it too. It’s a lot of walking. Make sure you have good shoes not just with good traction but comfortable too! The price isn’t too high either. I will say if you are claustrophobic it may be a challenge for you but very cool experience
