I went on a cave tour in Arkansas and the tour guide said the cave was formed 10,000 years ago when I asked how old a structure was. So my question is. Was this tour guide an idiot?

Not necessarily. Caves are very ephemeral systems. They are made by groundwater and eventually moving water eroding and digging deeper and deeper into the dissolvable bedrock. A cave can be made in that time.

Do you remember what cave it was?
