This natural underground attraction is on the to-do lists of many travelers to Chattanooga. But Ruby Falls isn't the only drawcard here. Tennessee Aquarium, Rock City, and Chattanooga Riverfront are some other worthwhile attractions nearby.

Hotel Clemons was an absolute delight. It has the amenities of a traditional hotel but with extra living space. The two bedrooms and two bathrooms was perfect for our dynamic. Incredibly clean and so trendy. Highly recommend.

3/5 - Okay

Went up to inquire about the tour. Found out there are multiple stairs to climb, and my wife and myself can't climb stairs. Would have loved to see it though!
4/5 - Good

Ruby Falls is always a great experience, but please be warned that the Christmas Underground is an experience strictly for kids. For us, it was a disappointment and waste of money
5/5 - Excellent
Verified traveler
Amazing! The Fall itself and all of the formations were like nothing I have ever seen. I was pleasantly surprised it did not feel cramped or tight so far underground and the elevator trip up and down was quick. Very large groups and our tour guide Desiree was a real treat!
5/5 - Excellent

Worth a visit!
4/5 - Good

The cave itself was a bit plain and the tour group was larger than idea, but the Ruby Falls was worth seeing. We also visited The Lost Sea Adventure Cave an hour drive northeast of Chattanooga. We liked it better than the Ruby Falls Cave.
