Rafting and Hiking in the real jungle - I had a blast on a tour. It was my first time rafting over cascades, which proved to be easy and exciting experience with the guidance of experienced professionals. My guide was Arieli and rafting guide was Manuel. After refreshing river trip you get to experience a short hike through the forest. It's a trail, so no need for machetes here :-) I travelled in April, that time of the year there few insects in the forest. After the hike you are brought for a visit to Bonampak, the place with best preserved mayan frescoes. Whole tour allows you to disconnect from the "city mode" and enjoy the beauty and freshness of the nature in the heart of the reserve.

Absolutely not recommended - My girlfriend and I booked this all-inclusive tour. We would also have the option to take our bags with us. Very handy if you go into the jungle after rafting. We arrived to a very poor hostel. Our rafting guide was absent here, but when he was there we suddenly had to hurry. The rafting is on a stagnant river with a current or waterfall here and there. For an action-packed experience you need a current of type 5/6, this was 1/2. Too bad, but in itself it was relaxing and we could view the jungle. Don't expect much wildlife. Immediately after rafting we went into the jungle. We had no water with us (because everything was included) and we were missing our other belongings because they were not allowed on the boat. Fortunately, there were some other travelers who joined and we were allowed to use the necessary mosquito spray. This was certainly necessary. With our rafting gear with us, we headed into the jungle... the guide was apparently in a hurry, because he walked through the jungle at high speed, so we didn't even have time to look at anything (you have to watch the ground for any snakes) . We received little information about the flora and fauna and were exhausted upon return. Still without food or drink. Once back we had lunch. This was without drinks, and since we had no money with us we could not pay for this (our own mistake for not taking money with us). We were not given WiFi to pay by card, because we were not guests of the hostel. Fortunately, we were helped again by one of the people from the earlier group. The food itself consisted of very limited options from the menu and was very below what you would reasonably expect. We strongly suspect that we are currently experiencing the burden of this. Finally, we had to wait another 3 hours for the mini-van to pick us up for another 4 hour drive back. Fun times. Especially for this amount.
