★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Great drive up to entrance, winding roads and dark natural tunnels, one way system, massive cave, which is square inside due to removal of, cut 25 ton blo ks of marble, 2 massive columns of marble left on either side of mountain marble cave, to hold mountain in place to avoid collapse, pianist from Bon Jovi played in cave due to fantastic acoustic, and echoes, well worth 10 euros lift into cave and guided talk, Leonardo Da Vinci got his pure white marble from here for many of his statues.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ We took the 2.5 hours tour which was great! Driving around the trails and quarries with a 4x4 was an unexpected and exciting experience. Highly recommend

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ We took a 1.5 hour private tour of the marble mines. It was an outstanding experience, the guide was excellent and very entertaining ! The tour was well worth the cost. Strongly recommended.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Highly recommend you choose this Jeep tour over others. Our tour guide was very friendly & personable. The time length of our tour was quite long compared to others and we got to experience quite a bit including going inside the marble quarry and taking some insanely steep inclines.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Actually a really amazing tour with phenomenal views! Also the lady on the phone with who we arranged the tour was really helpful and friendly!
HOWEVER, the actual guy who did our tour was the worst guide we’ve ever had! Arrogant, disrespectful, patronising and super unsympathetic! Even other guests complained about him behind his back! So better choose one of the other companies to avoid that guy!!

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ If you are in the area you MUST visit this place with this tour operator. Advice 1: book directly with them and you'll pay only 40 euros per person. Advice 2: not recommended for people with fear of heights or open space. Advice 3: do not wear your best shoes or clothes, nothing black or dark - the place is full of white marble dust and your shoes will be covered by it in no time.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ We found this tour online while staying in Cinque Terre, called same day and booked the 2 pm tour. The process was simple, they picked us up and dropped us off at the Carrara train station for no extra cost, and we had a great conversation and private informal tour of Carrara on the ride. We changed cars at the bottom of the quarry and started the 1.5 hour tour of the quarrys with a full car of other guests. The ride is a pretty intense roller coaster up rocky cliffside quarry roads, but that just added to the fun. We got a great mix of technological and political history, along with great views of the entire region and multiple big quarries. I learned a lot, got some great pictures, and a little thrill too. Highly recommend for anyone staying in the area!

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ We went on the English speaking tour with a group of American, Italian, French and Spanish. We very much enjoyed the beautiful mountain and the carving from the marble extraction that is indeed impressive. There is a bit of adventure going up and down the mountain with the 4x4 so you may feel a bit car sick. However we were all quite annoyed with the sarcastic story telling of our guide. It was quite difficulty to get a straight answer out of him. At times the guide was making inappropriate comments to foreigners' cultures. Note that you will be asked to pay cash (40€ per person for the 2h tour)... And of course you are not given any receipt so they don't have to pay tax on their sales.
