This expedition is one of our most adventurous tours as we travel into the ancient history of Belize in its most untouched form. Artifacts are often looted from Mayan ceremonial caves following their discovery. Because of this, passage through this cave is known to only a few select guides, who have permission from the Belize Department of Archaeology to take visitors to this special cave. To this day, the cave has not been looted and nearly all of the cultural artifacts have remained in place as they were originally found in 1989. Tour with us as we unveil the mysteries and secrets of the Maya underworld. Witness spectacular visions of the jungle, while trekking across rivers and remote jungle trails. We will take you back over 2,000 years in history as you learn about the Maya and witness first-hand how the Ancients used these amazing caverns. Descend into the burial chambers with calcified remains, ceremonial vessels and other cultural artifacts were left by the Maya in this hidden cave centuries ago. The nature hike to the cave entrance is about 45 minutes. The hike includes three stream crossings and passes through the 6,700 acre Tapir Mountain Nature Reserve.
