A bit of a challenge getting down to the look out area some areas are steep and some areas have a low roof but it's worth it it's a interesting walk down to the look out area and when you get down there is a great view.
If your not good with heights I wouldn't step out on to the platform bit as it's a long way down below you.
It's really worth the visit I enjoyed it I have been a few times before and every time I returned I have always enjoyed it.

Very steep in places and occasional low ceiling, but at the bottom you a different view of the Avon gorge

Went to the Giant’s cave yesterday as a side attraction to our ‘Save the Bridge’ spy trail around Clifton with the grandchildren. The cave itself was great and the views spectacular but the refreshments available at the cafe were disappointing, the toilet facilities inadequate and not very clean and, to top it off, I was overcharged for entry (which I didn’t realise till later).

I went to the Caves yesterday with my family and my Assistance Dog. The lady on the til was amazingly welcoming and accommodating. I can't thank her enough for making our visit so wonderful and stress-free.
The climb down the narrow cave stairs (and back again) is 100% worth it!
I highly recommended a visit

Surprisingly steep set of stairs coming out onto an interesting view over the Avon gorge and Clifton suspension bridge. Some parts of the tunnel are very very tricky, don't go if you get at all claustrophobic! Pricing is very reasonable (£3), considering the steps take 5ish minutes each way, and you'll likely only spend 10 minutes at the bottom.

Surprisingly challenging climb down and up, it's narrow and long. Doable for most people, as long as you're up for it. View is okay, perhaps better on a sunnier day.

Isambard Kingdom Brunel is also surprisingly short in stature.

Amazing tunnel down through the rock to the viewpoint over the Avon Gorge and Clifton Suspension Bridge. Tunnel is low and very steep in parts so be aware its not for everyone.

Mind your head and prepare to explore. Well worth the £3 to climb down the cave and emerge onto to the best viewing platform for the Clifton suspension bridge.
