    Here's something, from BGIS Media - Top Stories - Harrison’s Cave Reopens

    . . . Minister of the Environment, Water Resources and Drainage, Dr. Denis Lowe, observed that the site had undergone "a complete transformation".

    He pointed to the construction of a new Tram Storage Building and a new Visitor Reception Centre, which includes administration offices, a spacious restaurant with a bar and gift shop, along the Wild Cave Tour Building, as among the improvements.

    "There are also three new elevators to take you from the cliff top to the gully floor of the cave. There you will find a light refreshment bar, along with five sales kiosks for the community which lead you to the technologically improved Cave Interpretive Centre," Dr. Lowe added.

    He maintained that the new facilities were intended to not only make the functions of Harrison's Cave more efficient and effective, but specifically, to add significant educational and entertainment value to the cave experience for touring patrons.

    And here's this from the harrisons cave website - Harrison's Cave Barbados - Home







    Travel deep beneath the earth and explore the wonders of nature. Hear the rushing of the streams and see the calm glassy pools. Be amazed by the different shapes and sizes of the stalactites and stalagmites and delight in the delicate flowstone formations. See the early explorers’ entrance and experience some of their adventure.
    Travelling by tram, you will be directed by knowledgeable tour guides who will point out the various structures as well as the new formations which are continually growing in this living cave. At select points you can disembark from the tram for a closer look. Our focus is to ensure that you have a memorable experience.
