Float Through Ancient Worlds
Cave tubing is one of Belize’s most unique and unforgettable adventures. Deep in the rainforest, you'll hike to a crystal-clear river that winds through vast underground cave systems once sacred to the ancient Maya. As you float in and out of massive caverns and limestone tunnels, you'll discover a hidden world of natural beauty, mystery, and history all while relaxing on the gentle current of the jungle river.
Explore Belize From the Inside Out
This unique inland tour takes you deep into Belize’s rainforest then deep underground. Hike through the jungle to reach the river, where you’ll float into massive limestone caves carved by centuries of water and time.
With just your tube, life vest, and headlamp, you’ll drift through shadowy chambers and natural cathedral-like caverns once believed to be sacred by the ancient Maya.

The 501 Experience
As your tube drifts into the mouth of the cave, the outside world begins to disappear. Cool, clear water carries you gently as your guide leads the way through a vast underground world shaped by time and mystery. The glow of your headlamp reveals ancient rock formations, glittering stalactites, and towering walls that tell stories of the past.
You will float through massive cathedral-like chambers, winding tunnels, and wide open caverns once used by the Maya for sacred ceremonies. Before the tubing begins, enjoy a short hike through the rainforest filled with tropical plants, possible wildlife sightings, and the soothing sound of the river ahead.
This experience is both peaceful and full of adventure, offering a powerful connection to Belize's natural beauty and cultural history.
