Good trip with littles! - My son, dad and sister went on the tour with Rudy and he was an amazing tour guide. Super knowledgeable about a wide range of subjects. He took time to explain everything about the cave system and history of it. It was a pretty amazing place to visit. Highly recommend going to see, even my 4 yr old enjoyed it! We did this the day before the ATM tour which was nice to have a preview of what was to come. Plus Rudy was definitely one of the best guides I’ve ever had so try to get him!

Great! - The cave canoeing was amazing! We got picked up from the hotel and driven to the driver. There, we learned some history and boarded the canoes. As beginner paddlers, it was a little wobbly and stressful at times, but Marvin was a great guide!! Just a warning, the ride there is unpaved, so if you are motion sick, beware. Otherwise, a great time and super unique adventure!

Very special experience with a great guide!! - Our guide Rudy was so kind and knowledgeable, he had the most soothing voice while sharing stories about the cave. Inside the cave was peaceful and beautiful, not to mention really cool temperature wise. A nice retreat from the May heat and humidity. We were the only canoe in the cave this afternoon vs. 20 in the morning we were told. It felt very special. 5 stars for Rudy and this experience!!

Something you must do while in San Ignacio - I would give this trip 6 stars, if I could! Rommel was a fantastic guide in every sense. Very professional, knowledgeable, and funny. The cave canoeing was outstanding. Impossible to put into words the experience and something you need to simply experience yourself! In addition, the traditional Belizean lunch they served was phenomenal! Food was so good and we want to send much love to the cooks who prepared it.
