Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

I had an amazing experience of the Maastricht Caves. My tour guide Paul was highly informative and engaging with the youth. Thank you very much.

Not a lot to do in Maastricht on a cool rainy Monday. Have visited the city many times but never the caves. The caves and history were quite interesting and our guide Janine (?) was well informed and enthusiastic. Worth the walk from the center!

I had a great experience in a large English-speaking group being led through the limestone cave complex under Saint Peter's fort, as guided by Toon. You should not be a claustrophobe if you're going to trek underground, and you should be able to handle gentle grade elevations and some low-ceilings, but the experience of peeling away the layers of history to experience several hundred years of European experience is fascinating; I live in Amsterdam, and the topography of Limburg feels very much like a different nation altogether.

We were the only two participants of the English guided tour today and were very lucky to have Johanna as our tour guide. She was friendly, professional, knowledgable and funny. We were impressed by what we see and fascinated by the stories Johanna told us. It was an absolutely enjoyable journey and we learned a lot from it. I will definitely recommend it to anyone who is visiting Maastricht! *Thank you very much Johanna, we wish you all the very best!

It was a fun experience and a very interesting walk through the underground tunnels with entertaining stories from a great guide named Harrold who knows historical and natural facts about Maastricht. An ideal way to spend a day in the town and the fort is also a cute place for pictures.

Honest recommendation! Our tourguide Edi made it so much better. He isone of the funniest people we met, he makes jokes like stand up comedian and doesn't even react on them. He had a joke for every story so he made boring history the most interesting ever. Thanks Edi :)

We had a tour 'Zonneberg Caves'. Gilles was an excellent guide. Nice voice, tall and a lot of knowledge. He could answer every question. Highly recommended!

An amazing experience. We the did Guided Tour Fort Sint Pieter (English) and Guided Tour North Caves (English). Both tours were an hour each.
Tom was our tour guide. He was very knowledgeable & witty.
The tours are just outside the city centre. I would recommend walking as the bus takes just as long or longer if your bus driver gets confused and drops you off in Belgium!

An ugly scam. Will publicly defame you when a low rating is given. Nothing they say is true. I complained about their actions and received some defamation from them. Which basically proves my entire point. Avoid!!!

THANK YOU SIMONE for a BRILLIANT tour of the Fort and North caves yesterday. You made the history of both so interesting and fun, we could easily have been living in them at the times you were talking about. Highly recommend a visit.

I read about the underground tour and Wim as a very knowledgeable guide: where did you book the tour? What company?

It is at least a 1/2 hour to one hour enjoyable walk.

It is, we combined both tours and and I'm not sure if we started at 12:30 or 13:30 but with a small pause between the tours we ended up at 15:30. Both tours are quite easy to walk. The guides are very entertaining. It was our highlight in Maastrich.

I bought the tickets on the site . Take a photo or make a hard copy of your receipt. Should be ok. There wasn’t a huge crowd
When do tours start in February, probably 19th-21st (we may want a tour quite early or quite late)? Do I have to book in advance?
