About this trip

For those looking  for an exciting day full of activities, this tour takes you from your  hotel/resort in San Ignacio Town  to the top of  the El Castillo, to floating in one of Xibalba’s gateways at Nohoch Che'en caves aka ''Jaguar paw''. 


You will be Exploring & climbing Xunantunich’s structures, learning about the Maya civilization's imprint in our country,  admiring beautiful landscape of countryside (from the top of El Castillo) before you get pampered with an authentic Belizean lunch. After getting fueled up get ready to enjoy a relaxing time in a very unique cave system in Belize.

Enjoy a unique aqua adventure through caves as you frolic downstream through a stunning turquoise river. Your cave-tubing adventure will start with a 20-minute hike as you ford across Caves Branch River. Along the way, you will witness many of the sites and sounds of the lowland broad-leaf tropical forest. Once in the water, be prepared to see the many exotic cave formations that are part of this unique experience. (your guide do the work for you: pulling your tubes while you relax and enjoy the cave system and once out of the caves you will be happy to sunbathe in the warm tropical sun)

Amazing company! Due to rain our tour with this company was cancelled. They immediately wanted to refund us 100% of our deposit but unfortunately our credit card company wasn’t allowing it. This company spent so much time and effort to ensure the refund was given to us. We had left the western side of Belize and were in San Pedro. This company found someone there to meet us and give us a cash refund. Their customer service is top notch and I have no doubt their tours are too.

We booked directly with St. Leonard’s tours based on great reviews and our experience was phenomenal! Our guide was Jose and we booked the Horse Riding, Xunantunich & Chocolate Making tour. Jose was a fantastic guide, making sure my 10 year-old daughter and I had a truly remarkable and fun experience. His knowledge of everything from wildlife, plants, Mayan history, and more, was unmatched. Bonus- he was also a great photographer😄

We had an amazing time. Elio was a fantastic guide. He helped us navigate all of the Mayans ruins and was phenomenal during the cave tubing, highly recommended Elio and St Leonard’s.

Reuben was an amazing guide. He was super nice and knowledgeable. He spent extra time showing us Jaguar’s Paw cave and telling us about Belize’s history, ecology, and general info. We were picked up in Belize City and Reuben basically drove us over the whole country. It was more expensive ($225 each) but definitely worth it. We want to come back to do a full day cave exploration with Reuben.
