Boarding the inner tubes, guests will be guided by the tranquil currents into the cave on the caves branch river. Once inside, the light from the head lamps will reveal a lost world of sparkling stalactites and stalagmites as well as other cave formations as you float through ‘Xibalba’ mayan word for underworld or ‘Hell’.

At first we were hesitant to book a non cruise ship excursion. Wow, we were so glad we did. Everything went very smooth, well organized and properly timed. Fabulous crew, you wont be disappointed. Our favorite excursion on this cruise.
