You still walk in most weather. The tour only cancels for weather that threatens public safety (such as floods, hurricanes, or cloud-to-ground lightning). In a heavy downpour, your guide will seek shelter and continue storytelling until the weather clears.
Plan to walk about 1 to 1.5 miles. Use the restroom before the tour—there are no restrooms available, and the guide cannot pause the walk for restroom breaks.
