Embark on an adventurous hike through ATM Cave Belize- Actun Tunichil Muknal, a cave brimming with Mayan history. Be aware that traversing the cave requires a decent level of fitness, as you'll find yourself climbing, squeezing through tight spaces, and in rare cases swimming to explore the sites. The cave system spreads through about 4.8 km (3 mi) with a river flowing through it for approximately 3.2 km (2 mi). Be on the lookout for large spiders, freshwater crabs, and lots of bats. The highlight for most visitors is the undisturbed skeletal remains and pottery of Mayan origin, such as the "crystal maiden," whose calcified bones give off a crystalized, sparkly appearance.

Amazing experience. Our guide Jam Jam was top notch. Very knowledgeable, and got us back out alive 😀 If the history and cultural portion was not enough, the cave has epic flow stones, columns, and many other active formations. A must see.

Loved it! So interesting. The water took your breath away it was so cold. Our guide Manuel was fantastic. Tennis shoes are a must for the hike in and out. Shoes are worn most of the way until the very end. Water is shoulder deep in some areas. A must do if in Belize!
