Top Belize City Rafting

Descend into a sacred cave, once considered an entrance to the Mayan underworld, on this tour from Belize City. You'll visit Actun Tunichal Muknal, where you'll see skeletal remains and ancient pottery while you learn about the ancient belief systems of the region. You'll also spend some time hiking in the jungle and dining on an included lunch.

For thousands of years, the Mayan ancestors used the cave system for dwelling, performing sacred ceremonies, and storing food. On this all-day guided tour, explore the underworld with a cave tubing or kayaking adventure at Nohoch Chen Park. Start with a briefing on the layout of the caves, how to use the kayaking equipment, and about the route. Along the way, enjoy a refreshing swim. The tour also includes a visit to the ancient ruins at Altun Ha.

This Belize cave tubing and zipline adventure lets travelers experience the Nohoch Che’en rainforest from below the ground, at river level, and above the forest floor. Begin with the tropical forest approach and a safety briefing before entering the Cave Branch River system. Floating beneath limestone ceilings by headlamp reveals rock formations and underground chambers shaped by water, making the cave journey both scenic and geological. The zipline then changes the perspective completely. Trained guides fit the equipment, explain the procedures, and lead guests between canopy platforms for an aerial view of the same living forest. What makes this combination distinctive is the progression through one landscape: first walking beneath the trees, then drifting through the caves below them, and finally moving above the forest floor. Rather than two disconnected activities, cave tubing and ziplining become a layered exploration of central Belize’s water, limestone, and tropical canopy.
