Cave Tubing with Lunch

Posted By : Rebecca_K
There was only 3 people on our tour. The guide picked us up and was kind. He shared a lot of history on the brief hike to the cave. It's an easy hike, one person has just had knee replacement so we went slow. The cave was breath taking and swimming after in the fresh water was amazing. The chicken tamale was perfect after finishing. Highly recommend, we messaged before the tour a few times because of water taxi times and the response was rapid. Good experience!

Jimmie was a great tour guide. Picked us up promptly and took good care of us.
River was very low—God’s fault—-so tubing was not great.
Lunch was good but very small.
I felt the tour was over priced!

Five star experience from the beginning. We got off our water shuttle and called the number listed. They answered promptly and kindly guided us to the meet up point just a minute or two away. Kenton was our driver and guide for the day. He was informative, funny, and took excellent care of our group. We had a wonderful time in the caves and on the rivers. The water was crisp and refreshing and there were plenty of places to swim and take in the beauty. The water in the river is crystal clear. You get more bang with your buck with Five Star tours. Definitely worth it!!

This was a wonderful excursion. It was very easy to find our tour leaders with the directions provided. We traveled about an hour outside of the city by van with a few other families and arrived at the cave area parking lot. There were a few vendors there if you wanted a souvenir or snack, and credit cards were accepted. Our group was outfitted with the mandatory life vest and helmet, and we paid the $5 each for someone to carry our raft to the starting point. I have seen varying estimates of how long it takes to walk from the parking lot to the starting point, so I am here to say that it is about a mile, which for some could be 12-15 minutes, but if you aren't wearing proper footwear, it can be a lot longer. I was wearing very thin water shoes and every sharp rock under foot was painful, which meant having to walk very slowly. We had 2 guides and one led the group and the other stayed behind with me to be sure all was well. He was very patient with me! We crossed the river 3 times before getting to the starting point--again, having good water shoes is important for this excursion. The raft ride through the cave was very peaceful and informative. The rafts are connected into a flotilla and the guide either pulls the group or swims while towing the group--and giving information about the formations you can see. We tipped more than we usually did because of the sheer physicality of the guides' work! Once out of the caves, our excursion continued down the river for a bit longer, and we were allowed to swim alongside the group if we wanted to. Lunch was delicious freshly made chicken tamales and bottled water. We would absolutely do this tour again and recommend to all!

Make sure you get out of the port to find your people there - this was an amazing experience, our guides were excellent and going inside those caves felt like seen a National Geographic documentary in person- lunch was great and it was overall a great experience

The tour guide, Jimmy Cortez, is very professional, knowledgeable, and humorous. We had a wonderful time through the river inside the cave, not just a memorable ride but insightful info about the beautiful formation of nature.

An amazing day. Tour guides were easy to find and well organized. Ride to caves was about 45 minutes. The hike into the jungle was easy and beautiful. This from two 60+ individuals with knee issues.
The cave tubing was also easy but amazing. Fresh chicken tamales after the ride were much enjoyed by all.
A cool day in the jungle and in the caves were perfect in hot Belize.

Well let's begin by saying that Kenton our guide goes over and beyond to ensure that your cave tubbing experience is fantastic!! The walk through the forest was so informative. Kenton shared detailed information about each tree and thier healing properties!! The journey was a bit challenging for me. But Kenton did not rush, he assisted me and in some cases physically had to support me during the journey. At one point I didn't think I would make it to the tub launching site. Kenton is an excellent person and guide!! Once in the caves, My mind was completely blown by the beauty I experienced. There is an actual flowing stream of fresh water that is purified coming off the rough. I was so excited when Kenton took the time making sure we each got to drink from the this refreshing stream of water. It was by far the best tour ever!! Thank you 5star.com and Thank you Kenton for this wonderful experience 💚 Kenton served us the best tamales I've ever had in my life for lunch with a nice cold bottle of water, after we finished tubbing.💚
