5.00We went with PABLO leaving from Sirenian Bay. 2 parts of the review. 1st -Pablo - amazing. Safe driver. Wikipedia of knowledge. Extremely accommodating for our needs. He took us to a ruins tour and tubing at ATM cave. I'd request him if you can. We had another family with us with smaller kids and he was really great with the 3 of them. He also traced his heritage back to the Mayans so there was a sense of reverance and pride as he explained the culture and historical significance of the sites, etc. Cahal Pech was an incredible opportunity to walk through history. The ATM caves and tubing were a highlight of our trip to Belize.
You must see this amazing cave!

5.00This experience is unforgettable. Don't go if you don't want to get wet, climb, or are afraid of some tight spaces. Our guide, Emile, was very passionate about this cave. Although knowledgeable, he tended to go way ahead of his group (6 people) on the way to and back from cave.
