Take a trip into history - deep underground. The Dorking Caves are one of Surrey's best kept secrets.

A knowledgeable guide will take you back in time to when the caves were used as wine cellars, showing you dark old passageways all atmospherically lit by candles. You will pass by the old wine bins and several ancient well shafts and see dozens of dates and names carved into the walls some dating back to 1666.

A visit to Dorking Caves is one you will not forget!
