Cave Tubing Adventure

It’s the most awe-inspiring adventure on the mainland of Belize. Today this tour has become a must-do activity when visiting Belize. You probably have done caving before or some river tubing but to do both simultaneously is unimaginable. This is exactly what this activity is about. Cave-tubing as the name suggests provides you the opportunity to experience mother- nature at its best whilst having great fun.

From Belize City, it is an hour’s drive going west to get to the national park of No’och Che’n to begin cave tubing. Large and spacious changing and restroom facilities are available. Water shoes are highly recommended for a comfortable hike through the rainforest. There are vendors in the park that also rent water shoes if you so desire. When you are through with changing, we provide you with headlights, life jackets, and tubes. Before starting the tour, we advise our guests to utilize sunscreen and insect repellent, depending on the weather. Your adventure begins with a thirty minutes hike under the canopy of the rainforest from the park to the entrance of the caves. A trained tour guide will be in your presence to ensure your safety and comfort at all times. Your guide will also be pointing out important plants and trees as you hike along.

After arriving at the cave system, you will be asked to wear your life jacket, and headlight before sitting on the tubes in the river. The entire party will be attached together whilst on your tubes with ropes to make a tube chain. The water, which has a constant refreshing temperature, allows you to move slowly and in a relaxed position. As you travel down the river through beautiful limestone caves you will get a chance to view the amazing rock formations of stalactites and stalagmites within the cave systems. This experience will be for approximately forty minutes. Thereafter, you will be exiting the cave and doing an additional twenty minutes of open-river tubing as we head back to the starting point culminating this overwhelming adventure tour.

This tour is possible in a half day but if you also want the Zip-line rush then it becomes an all-day tour. A National Geographic Experience is uniquely available in Belize for everyone to enjoy.
