Guided Fossil Tours

Every Sunday in July & November

Take a walk 70ft down into an ancient ocean bed and discover prehistoric creatures older than the dinosaurs. Limestone is great for preserving ancient life, but fossilization is rare. According to the BBC, scientists estimate that less than one-tenth of 1% of all creatures on earth become fossils. Cave of the Mounds has discovered more than 100 fossils to date, including ancient squid, snails, corals, and more! Tour Guides will show you fossils and you can help find new ones. A bag of fossils are included to take home at the end of the tour.

Tickets are non-refundable. Specialty Tours unavailable Easter Weekend, Memorial Day Weekend, 4th of July Weekend, and Labor Day Weekend
