Overview

The "Triple Threat" | Xunantunich, Cave Tubing & Zipline

Warning: This is an action-packed day! If you want to squeeze every drop of adventure out of your time in Belize, this is the tour for you. We combine the massive temples of the West with the aerial and aquatic adventures of the jungle. Sleep in the van—adventure when you step out.


At A Glance

  • Destinations: Xunantunich, Nohoch Che'en (Cave Tubing & Zipline)
  • Departs From: Belize City
  • Duration: Full Day (Approx. 8–9 Hours)
  • Difficulty: High Activity (Climbing, Hiking, Swimming)

The Experience

Stop 1: Xunantunich (The Stone Woman)

We head straight to the furthest point first. Cross the Mopan River ferry and climb the 130ft El Castillo temple for views of Guatemala.

Stop 2: Jungle Zipline

On the way back, we stop at Jaguar Paw. Strap in and fly through the rainforest canopy on a high-speed zipline course.

Stop 3: Cave Tubing

The perfect cool-down to end the day. Float through the dark caves, admire the formations, and relax in the river before the final drive home.

The "Private" Difference: Why Upgrade?

This is a long day with tight timing. A private vehicle is essential because:

  • Speed: We don't wait for other passengers. We move immediately from one site to the next.
  • Flexibility: If you are tired after the ruins, we can shorten the lunch break to get you to the caves faster.
