37 miles up the Western Highway brings you to the Nohoch Chen Archaeological Park, your headquarters for the day. Your first activity is a zip-line tour through the rainforest. The zip-line tour features an intricate harness system of pulleys on horizontal traverse cables which lets you glide 100 – 750 feet between platforms up to 120 feet high in the trees at canopy level. After being fitted into the safety harness, the next 30 – 40 minutes are spent zipping through a series of 7 zip-line runs from 10 jungle platforms – a truly unforgettable experience! Following lunch, your next adventure for the day is cave tubing. You are issued your tubes, headlights and safety gear before hiking through the rainforest to the entrance of the cave system. Once at the entrance of the caves your guides brief you on safety procedures while tubing and then it’s time for your cave tubing adventure through the ancient Maya underworld – Xibalba. Intricate crystalline formations line the cave and stalagmites and stalactites magically appear out of the darkness. On several occasion you will emerge into the sunlight only to enter into another cave system.

This was an amazing excursion. We are so glad that we did it. The tour guide was very knowledgeable and answered everyone's questions. Tubing in the caves was definitely a must experience. The excursion could have been complete with just the cave tubing; ziplining was a great bonus.
make sure to bring bathing suit or clothes to get wet in. Swimming is optional but you will get wet.

Amazing experience! Clarence was great and provided amazing historical context for the caves and ruins. Saw warthogs right on the path to the cave. Clarence offered to take many pictures of me in front of the best views. Ziplining was amazing too! Best adrenaline rush, great views, just wished I had thought to have someone videotape me. All in all an amazing experience and highly recommend!

This was an awesome experience. The water was clear and cold (refreshing in their words). I enjoyed the tubing through the caves and the different scenery. The zipline was fun and it was warm walking and zipping through the jungle.

The staff was very nice and friendly. The only downfall was all the miles we had to hike on gravel walkway and not to mention crossing three rivers to cave tubing and climb steep stairs to zipline. The experience in itself was exhilarating! Ivar was amazing. He pulled all five of us through the river in the cave and informed us of the formation. The island definitely is in poverty and made us wonder how fortunate we are. Rhe experience was good.

My husband and I had a blast. We were on a Viking Cruise and were looking for something local to do that would be exciting and memorable. Our guide Joey was fantastic. He picked us up at the terminal as described. He explained the culture in Belize and pointed out several items of interest along the way. When we arrived we went zip lining first. So much fun! The guides were really wonderful and patient. The caving portion of the trip was just incredible! You have to experience it for yourself. I would highly recommend this adventure to anyone.
