The early morning Gentle Walking Tour lets you do all of the above at a slower pace and provides you with early access to the waterfall. It also includes more in-depth historical and geological content for true nature buffs.The after-hours Lantern Tour , meanwhile, enables travelers to see the falls in a different light. In fact, the cavern is illuminated only by the hand-held lanterns that the guests carry and a few other strategically placed lights.
