Marcus was the BEST TOUR GUIDE EVER. He gave a wonderful tour while we walked through the jungle and even stopped and showed us different aspects of nature. My husband and I were in his tour group when we tubed in the cave, and he was so cautious and caring, and even took care of people who were not on our tour who were clearly having a hard time.

First, the good. Our guide, Wayne, was outstanding! He did all that he could to give us a great experience. The tube ride through the cave was interesting and fun. Now the not so good. Meeting location was different from information provided and scheduled departure time was pushed by an hour and our group of max 18 grew to over 30. After our hike through the jungle, we learned our tubes had not been delivered and Wayne had to go back and we all waited an hour standing around on the river bank. This delay forced the guides to rush us through the floating of the cave so we could make it back to our ship by our departure time. Conclusion, even with all things that went wrong we enjoyed the day and learned many interesting things from Wayne.

Group trip ended up being a solo trip. Had a fantastic drive and morning in the caves. Tour guide was extremely knowledgeable, had a ton of great connections at the caves and could setup a bunch of other experiences. Had a blast, got in some swim time in the caves, glad I went!

Are group was only 4 people plus the guide and we had so much fun! We had such a good time that we decided to add on a stop by Altun Ha. Ask for Paul, a great guide.

This was an amazing tour we snorkeled in the caves, zip lined through the canopy and walked in the rainforest. Our tour guide Paul took us to wonderful places to eat both days we were with him. He has wonderful stories and a lot of history to share. I highly recommend them for any of your touring needs.
