Best Day! - Where do I begin? Our tour guide Nelson was the absolute best! On the morning of our tour, it rained heavily and the water rose in the caves so we were unable to do the cave tubing. Nelson jumped right into action and organized another activity for us to do. He was very knowledgable and explained everything so throughly throughout the day. He was also very accommodating, kind, and courteous. We had the best day ever. He took us to all of the best spots for photos and ensured we got back to the water taxi on time to make it back to San Pedro. Luis also coordinated for us to go back and do the cave tubing activity when the water level went down. He updated us every step of the way. We were able to go back two days later to do the cave tubing and Nelson took us all the way through. He also recommended a wonderful restaurant and ordered ahead for us so we could have food as we headed back to San Pedro. Highly recommend.

A Perfect Day !! - This is a "must do" excursion to get the real feel of the green side of Belize and experience Mayan culture and cap it with a refreshing tube ride through caves and lazy river! Eric our guide was fantastic--very knowledgeable and accommodating. He shared a little about the people-the towns and loved getting fresh papaya from the car. He coaxed a tarantula from a hole at the temple, had us sample fry jacks, hear howler monkeys and made a tube journey safe and enjoyable. Highly recommend Eric and this tour!!!

Best tour ever! - Eric made our adventure amazing!!! He was kind, patient, thoughtful and fun. Hands down one of the best tours my friends and I have taken. Jose, who was part of the rafting tour was also great. BOOK THIS TOUR, you’ll be happy you did, and ask for Eric to be your guide! 5 stars all the way.

Great experience great guide - Totally unique and beautiful experience. Our guide Neville was accommodating, personable and very knowledgeable. Mayan ruins were absolutely stunning. Lunch was great the dancers added another dimension to the trip. The cave tubing was very peaceful - like being at one with nature. Highly recommended, only sour point was not the trip but another guest who thought it was acceptable to arrive 45 mins late for the tour, not apologise, be extremely rude and proceed to swear appallingly at my wife.

A unique and enjoyable excursion - Because we had to tender in and it took awhile, our tour guide, Luis, rightly changed the agenda to give us time to enjoy it all. So first we went cave tubing, which was amazing. Victor, our tubing guide, was so knowledgeable about the history and the environment. You have to walk about a mile in to get to the beginning of the cave but it’s an added treat seeing everything in the tropical forest along the way. Tubes are waiting for you. No need to carry them with you as you walk to the cave entrance. After tubing we headed to the ruins which are amazing as well and Luis was very knowledgeable about the discovery and history. Because we reversed the schedule hardly anyone else was there! It was great. Be prepared for a long drive ( about an hour) to get to the caves and then another to get to the ruins. But you see a lot of the country. FYI bring bug spray should mosquitoes be around.

Majestic and Historical Tour - The tubing in the caves was so majestic, and the instructor so protective of us. The pyramids were beautiful and our tour guide Victor was so knowledgeable about the Mayan history and the Belizan history.

Eric and Louis were the best! - My husband Dave :) and I had an action packed adventure with Eric and Louis! Eric and Louis were fantastic guides, very knowledgeable, accommodating and FUNNY! We especially loved the cave tubing. Seeing the jaguar and a 2 foot cave spider we’re definitely highlights of trip. I highly recommend this trip, it’s a must for your Belize itinerary.
