a fee for drivers under 21 to rent a car, plus their weekend rates were very reasonable!\u00a0 We took a scenic drive over to Luray Caverns from the Ballston area.\u00a0 Luray Caverns has an interesting history, but it&#8217;s sad to see how the commercialization of such a precious natural resource has damaged the cave so badly.<\/p>\n<p>After touring the caverns, there&#8217;s a garden maze on site.\u00a0 While certainly overpriced at $5\/person, I&#8217;ve never even seen one in real life, let alone gone through one, so we had to! \ud83d\ude42<br \/>\n<div id='gallery-1'
