Nohoch Che'en Cave Tubing Adventure from San Ignacio (Jaguar Paw)

Wonderful tubing experience - Bern is an amazing guide!

Bern was a wonderful guide - patient, knowledgeable, and friendly with a great sense of humor. The tour/tubing never felt rushed, and it was a delightful way to spend the day. Excellent and tasty lunch was included as well. Highly recommend for any age traveler - we went with a family with three children, and Bern was able to tailor the tour to two adults in their 50s as well as the younger family.

ATM Cave Tour from San Ignacio Actun Tunichil Muknal

Great trip. Tip: leave earlier!

We had the best time! Ruwa Tours took excellent care of us and our guide, Eric, was amazing. The lunch was fantastic. I recommend asking for an earlier pick up time, as the cave can get crowded.

ATM Cave (Actun Tunichil Muknal)

Not to be missed.

Thanks to our amazing guide, Gliss, we had a once in a lifetime experience. He had a wide knowledge of the history, the geology, and the archeology of the caves and the Mayan sacrifices done there. It was really something to see these caves up close and personal. Traveling through the cave is not for the faint of heart, but we felt completely safe with Gliss. He was always very patient, and helpful. The authentic local fare lunch was delicious too. We would definitely recommend this tour, especially with Gliss as a guide.
