Great Tour - Everything we visited was outstanding. The Maya ruins were very impressive, tubing down the cave was breathtaking and our tour guide Luis Portillo was the nicest and knowledgeable person.

Roll with it - Our guide was very knowledgeable about the Mayans, so we had a great time at Altun Ha. Unfortunately due to a lot of rain the caves were closed and our guide offered us a lot of alternatives. We chose the baboon sanctuary, but on the way there, we were notified that a culvert had collapsed on one side, so we skipped that, did some shopping and headed back to the ship. I would book with this company again and I have done the cave tubing before and it is fun (when water levels are safe).

Worth It! - We had a great time with Luis (and Victor at the cave tubing). Altun Ha was beautiful and a great experience. The cave tubing was a blast and so unique.

Cave Tubing and Altun Ha Mayan Temples great experience - My daughter and I went to Belize for my birthday. We booked a tour through this company, and the services were wonderful. Our tour guide was professional and knowledgeable. He made it his mission to ensure that we had a great time. We had a blast! He did an awesome job! I cannot say enough about how wonderful Abel was...The tour was educational, and the lunch was exceptional. I would recommend Cave Tubing Paradise and Belize Adventures for everything Belize and some.

It was truly an amazing life changing experience. - Where do I begin I decided to go to Belize specifically to do this. I’ve always wanted to visit the Mayan Temples and cave tubing so I chose Belize. Glad I booked with Luis, he was very commutative. The day before he reached out via text sending a reminder of the tour. Stayed in constant contact as we were taking the ferry from San Pedro to the main land Belize city. When we docked he was waiting there with a sign with my name printed. We first visited the Mayan Temple he took pictures and informed us about the temples and what they were used for. And then we went to have stew chicken for lunch. Which was good I took a shot of tequila since it was my Bearthday celebration. Then we went cave tubing with his brother, we had to hike through the river and jungle land. But boy was it worth it in the end. We floated along while his brother informed us about the caves and what the Mayans used them for. I won’t put that on here go on the tour and find out. All in all 10 out of 10 recommend. Loved every part.

Fabulous adventure - Being able to seamlessly connect to experience 2 different but equally unique adventures was fabulous. Altun Ha is beautiful and full of history, as are the Xibalba caves at Nohoch Che’en.
We can fully recommend our tour guide Luis. He is knowledgeable and very hospitable, a safe driver, a good conversationalist, and a pleasure to be around.
Our guide for the cave tubing was Victor, of whom all the same things can be said. All in all a superb day!

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.
