Very interesting tour. You get access to the top of the quarry and a view of the quarry process. The drive up the quarry is pretty cool, the guide interacted for about 30 mins, we took some photos then drove back down. Only 15 euros so great price for an additional look at the beauty of Carrara. Oh yeah the guy in the snack venue where you buy the tickets is really ignorant and treats you like you are the dirt off of his boots, but thats part of the Italian charm
Highly recommended tour for those with any interest in Carrara marble and the artwork it's been used for over the ages! We were driving, so while the place was a bit challenging to find and make it to, it was totally worth it! The four-wheel drive up the side of the mountain was enjoyable, and the tour itself was mesmerizing! A knowledgeable guide showed us all the equipment they use at the marble quarry and attempted to explain the size and scale of the operation--which is enormous! Also surprising was the trouble it takes to move the marble once it's cut because it's so unbelievably heavy! At just $15 euros for a 90-minute tour, it was totally enjoyable!
Spectacular! A gigantic man-made cavern cut out of a solid white marble mountain. The mind of man designed cutting cables, saws, and drills to remove enormous blocks of white marble from the inside of the mountain. The quarry -- even though completely underground -- is reached by a long tunnel that completely penetrates the mountain. Did I mention spectacular? And amaizing? Truly.
This tour made my day! I suggest to get up early and get to carrara and ask for tours directly its less complicated and you can ask question depeding the tour you want. We did the one inside the cave wich is amazing!!! they told me how to get the tour in the 4x4(car) I recommand this one too since the views are breath taking ( if you are hungry there is also a small cafeteria)… beautiful experience.
Very nice excursion, with a professional explication and a great ride up into the marble quarry. Well spent 15€.
