We had an amazing experience with MayaWalk and Hugh as our guide extraordinaire! The tour challenged us physically, and gave us an even deeper appreciation for the Mayan culture and the brilliance in their skills and knowledge. Trekking through the cave just as the they had, seeing their works and learning their culture through the endless knowledge and enthusiasm from Hugh was both humbling and amazing. We couldn’t say enough about Hugh’s guidance, he was entertaining and was an amazing teacher, I felt like we learned so much in the time spent with him. He showed us so many hidden details that made this tour so special! If you are interested in understanding what you’re seeing, and hearing the fascinating stories behind them, this is your tour. Other tours came and went, while we savored our time spent among this amazing history. Oh, and the picnic lunch afterwards was absolutely delicious!!

Booked this excursion as part of my vacation with Intrepid. It was amazing! You have to wade through the river, swim a little and climb in the caves. Bernardo our guide ensured we were informed, safe and entertained throughout the tour. It’s a rare experience. I also appreciated that this excursion was not heavily overrun by tour groups because of the need for site preservation and a limit on certified guides.

This was an amazing tour. JC knew an incredible amount about the history and culture of the site, as well as the nature we passed along the way. We took our time on the walk and really got to immerse ourselves in the experience. I strongly recommend this tour and JC as a guide.

My family of six adults booked the ATM tour with MayaWalk. The site is incredible and it's a fun adventure! Juan Carlos was an excellent tour guide - he was knowledgeable, engaging, and kept everyone safe. The hot lunch at the end of the tour was delicious!

The views and sights were amazing ! This was definitely an adventure that I would experience again. The hike thru the jungle, climbing and crawling into the caves definitely made me feel like a real life Indiana Jones ! The guide was super informative , friendly and funny. He made the tour very enjoyable and exciting. This was definitely one off my bucket list that I would do again .

Really fun trip. We have 4 kids and we were worried it might be too tough for our youngest who is 7, however she did great with some extra assistance. It’s a fun adventure and culturally very rich as well, I can’t imagine how long they can continue this tour without artifacts getting damaged or stolen however.

EPIC! So well done. Eric, JC & Tate were our trio, and Eric was our little group's guide. We did the challenging but oh-so rewarding more advanced route in the cave. Eric's historical knowledge and guide prowess gave us the highlight of an overwhelmingly extraordinary time in Belize. MayaWalk was good to work with.

Yes it’s quite intense and intimidating at certain spots. But it’s definitely one of the most rewarding experiences I’ve ever experienced. Our guide Hue was great. And Maya walks had probably some of the best equipment in comparison to other groups.

We booked this tour fairly last minute with MayaWalk. It’s hard to please a 16-year old and adults, and this fit the ticket! Junior was a fantastic, knowledgeable and funny guide. The company was professional and accommodating! This trip is filled with adventure, history and a unique experience in Belize. I’m adverse to most organized tours and would book MayaWalk again for other tours based on my experience. Our van driver (Jaheem?) and lunch chef Sadia were both wonderful and helpful as well! We were also impressed with the care and thought the Belizeans have taken in preserving their cultural heritage. The park is well-maintained and beautiful. Tips: message them in WhatsApp for questions/details. They will pick you up and drop you off at your hotel/cabanas. There are great bathrooms and changing rooms at the cave entrance.

There are only 25 people allowed to take groups into this cave. It's protected by the government, and it should be. - Make reservations - Shirts are mandatory - no cameras allowed - no shoes are worn in the skeleton area This is a place to be respectful to the existing Mayan people's heritage. The teens that were in our group were very respectful and well behaved. Everyone felt how special it was to be allowed to be in this place. Our guide was super-knowledgeable. The cave and the experience of being allowed to walk into the Mayan's "church" is indescribable. We had to remove our shoes for the final part of the tour. The part with the artifacts. But just pretend that this cave didn't have ancient skeletons and Mayan artifacts in here. It would still be a superb spelunking trip! My fiancé and I loved this trip, but it is not a simple walk in a cave. You have to climb, squeeze, scamper, etc. Load of fun for us (mid 40's) and for everyone else that the physical part didn't bother them, but in our group was an older man and woman and they had a very challenging time. Lots of bruises for them, I'm sure. I felt sorry for them and their family trying to help. They seemed quite miserable. Only go if you have no physical issues. It's just AMAZING!

Even our teenagers rated this tour as EPIC!! The Actun Tunichil Muknal cave was truly incredible. Our guide, Aaron, was the best of the best. We did not feel rushed at all and he patiently answered all of our questions with his deep knowledge and expertise. You will truly savor your time without your phone or camera to fully immerse in the experience. Highly recommend seeing this site with MayaWalk Tours - they lead the way in knowledge, and priority for safety and conservation.

This was a very fun tour in concept! We greatly enjoyed seeing the artifacts and appreciated the sacredness of the site. However, our guide made it not as informative or fun as it could’ve been. Our bus began with two tour guides, Lenny and Magdelleno, however we split into two groups at the cave as each guide can only lead 8 people. Unfortunately, our guide Lenny, was inattentive and went extremely fast both during the hiking portion and the wading through water/walking through the cave parts. We are athletes and it was even difficult for us to keep up. Further, at the entrance to the cave, we all were instructed to switch on our headlamps. Mine was blinking on and off, but Lenny said it should be fine. During the first section of the cave, my light was sporadically blinking on and off which in the pitch dark is dangerous and I felt very uncomfortable. Lenny finally gave me his headlamp, once I caught up to him and after I said that I could not safely walk with the defective light. Further, we had to swim through the entrance, and I cannot swim, so I was expecting a little more attention during that part, because I am still a bit nervous by deep water. He did come back and towed me into the cave, but only after I called to him to come back. I greatly wish we had been placed in the other guide’s group as he seemed very friendly and informative in the van on the way to the cave. Lenny barely said two words.

The ATM tour with Mayawalk was amazing! The team was organized and professional from the drivers, to the lunch staff, to the guides. Penny was great and made it feel like we were the only ones in the cave even though it was peak tour time. Navigating the cave was awesome on its own, that you then get to learn about Mayan offerings to the gods and see artifacts- really an incredible experience. The tour was great for our kids (youngest is 10) and our guide Lenny answered all their questions.

Absolutely fantastic tour. Hugh was an exceptional guide, his passion was evident and infectious. Our tour was unhurried and educational (but not to the point of being boring). Love how Belize is not further excavating the cave and are letting Mother Nature reveal artifacts as she chooses. Overall 10/10.

We did the ATM with MayaWalk Tours, and Juan Carlos was our guide. The tour was amazing, and so was he! There was a lot more climbing and crawling than I expected, but it was a very manageable experience. And Juan Carlos was over-the-top with his knowledge and entertaining vibe. Such a great guide! He even took the time to surprise one of our group members with a mini-birthday celebration. I would absolutely recommend this excursion and Juan Carlos. Very much worth it!

This is the best excursion in Belize. You get up close with history and the Mayan culture. This is a physically demanding excursion. Make sure you take good water shoes, towel, change of clothes, and eat a big breakfast.

Hugh, our tour guide, was outstanding. His knowledge was complete and thorough. Very engaging. This is not an easy tour given the length of the walk, the amount of water you have to wade and swim thru, and the climbing up and down rocks, sometimes steep and sometimes narrow. My wife and i are both in our 60s, i am very tall she is short, so the climbing was challenging for both at opposite ends of the spectrum. Hugh was patient, helpful and kept us moving, ahead of the crowds. Lunch was fine and the overall trip was great. 5 stars for him and the tour company

I did this tour on my 40th birthday. Juan Carlos was my guide and I can not speak highly enough about him. His knowledge and experience made our tour a once in a lifetime unforgettable success. It is a must do if you are in the area.
