This was such an amazing experience!! James was an exceptional tour guide. He was knowledgeable in so many areas (e.g. history, architecture, etc) and provided us with great information. We would recommend this tour 100%. Once in a lifetime experience!
Cassaundra, thank you for saying that! We are in total agreement with you in saying that this is a once in a lifetime experience. And we are also in complete agreement that James is exceptional! With gratitude, The Ruwa Travels Team
This truly was a once in a lifetime experience. The cave is in excellent condition & then to see and learn about how the ancient Myan peoples used the cave was so interesting. This was an athletic adventure with some very tight spaces and is not something people with limited mobility. James our guide was informed and passionate about the sharing this experience with others.
Lisa, we have to agree with you in saying that this truly is a once in a lifetime experience! We are thrilled to hear that you enjoyed learning about the Mayas and how they utilized the cave for ceremonial purposes. James is indeed very informed and passionate about what he does! And thank you for mentioning that this experience is an ‘athletic adventure’ and that it is not suited for people with limited mobility. We try our best to describe the tour as clearly as possible for our guests to know what to expect before attending. We look forward to hosting you on your future Belize adventures! With gratitude, The Ruwa Travels Team
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.
Thank you so much Ellen! We appreciate you taking the time to leave such glowing words for us. We pride ourselves on offering excellent care to our guests and we definitely agreed - Eric is indeed amazing! And thank you for sharing that great tip with fellow travelers, the experience is indeed way better when visited earlier. We look forward to hopefully hosting you when you are in Belize next time for another great adventure! With gratitude, The Ruwa Travels Team
This was definitely an experience of a lifetime amount of history that we were able to get so close to in our guide. Erik was a pleasure. He was extremely knowledgeable and made the experience enjoyable. I would rate this experience a 12 out of 10.
Shawn, thank you for leaving this amazing review! We appreciate you mentioning that this experience was that of a lifetime and that you were able to learn so much history from Eric, our guide. He is indeed extremely knowledgeable. A 12 out of 10 is spectacular and we are honored! With gratitude, The Ruwa Travels Team
Bernadine was AMAZING! As soon as we started the walk to the caves, she is so knowledgeable and it felt like we were listening to a podcast or audio book with how well she explained the history of the region. Then in the cave she did such a remarkable job of making sure we felt safe and described all that was to be seen. The tour never felt rushed and she truly made it a wonderful experience.
Thank you Allison for this heart warming review! We are delighted that you had a great time and enjoyed Bernadine’s vast knowledge and “audio book” quality explanation of the culture and history of the cave. She always goes above and beyond ensuring that she shares and takes good care of you. We look forward to hosting you next time! With gratitude, The Ruwa Travels Team
This is a somewhat physical trip. There is a hike to the cave entrance with 3 water crossings along the way. You are on foot and the water can get about chest high for an average adult. You are equipt with a helmet, headlamp and life jacket and there are ropes to guide you across the water. Then the entrance of the cave is accessed by swimming or wading in water before you begin your roughly 90 min tour of the cave. There is some mild climbing and wading through the water as you move deeper into the cave. Your guide will point out points of interest along the way. There is a lot of information to take in along the way and lots of history about the Mayan artifacts and remains found in the cave. All very interesting and fun to learn about as you twist your way through the cave. I have been in several other caves but this Good experience is unique as you are guided through certain areas of the cave and climbing across other parts to access all of the point of interest. Very unique and differ them all of the other caves I have been in before. You are required to have a guide in order to access the game. They were all well trained and well educated about the cave itself and keep safety and reservation of the cave as a top priority. If you like adventure and something that's a little off the beaten path. This is a great experience. Very unique.
Matthew, thank you so much for this detailed review! We truly appreciate you taking the time to provide useful information for fellow travelers as they consider adding this tour to their Belize bucket list. You are indeed right for saying that it is an extremely physical activity and might not be for everyone. Our guides are well trained and knowledgeable - your safety and preserving the cave’s authenticity is our top priority. We are glad you were able to learn so much about the ATM’s history and culture while enjoying this “very unique” experience. We appreciate your feedback and look forward to hosting you on your next Belize adventure! With gratitude, The Ruwa Travels Team
Great experience! James was excellent. Geology, mythology, philosophy, human history… and (wet, dark, tight, beautiful) caving, oh my! Be sure to book the first available tour of the day as the site gets crowded, slow and more touristy / less magical as the day goes on!
Ryan, it thrills us that you and your family had a great experience with us! James is indeed excellent and we are glad you were able to learn so much from him. Thank you for pointing out that an earlier start is preferable before the site gets crowded. We hope to be able to welcome you and your family again for another great Belize adventure! With gratitude, The Ruwa Travels Team
Great experience. Highly Recommend
Thank you so much Gary! You taking the time to say these words mean so much to us! We look forward to hopefully hosting you when you visit Belize next! With gratitude, The Ruwa Travels Team
Better than we imagined or expected! Giselle was an incredible tour guide. She was very informative and passionate. A great investment. Highly recommend!
Marriann, thank you so much for saying this! We are honored that you chose us for your Belize adventure. Giselle is indeed an incredible tour guide and we are happy that the experience was better than you “imagined or expected”! Let us know if and when you are in Belize next time, we would be overjoyed to provide another great Ruwa experience! With gratitude, The Ruwa Travels Team
Ruwa helped me and my husband plan a 7-day Belize trip and they did an amazing job from start to finish. They customized the entire package for us and took care of everything, including a beachfront hotel and all our transportation/shuttles. The attention to detail really showed. We never had to worry about anything, everything just flowed. We had such a great time in Belize! We loved being immersed in the culture, trying local foods (like delicious pupusas!), and exploring beautiful sights. The highlight of our trip was definitely the ATM cave tour. It was one of the most unique things we have ever done. I loved the mix of hiking through the jungle and swimming into the cave. Seeing the ancient artifacts still in place and learning about the Maya culture made it feel like stepping into another world. Our guide, Akim, was very knowledgable and explained a lot about the history that made the experience all the more interesting and special. Phones weren't allowed at the ATM cave but the team shared some pictures with us after. Throughout the trip, our coordinator Maya stayed in touch with us and was so friendly and quick to respond. She checked in on us, helped with any questions we had, and made sure everything was running smoothly. I would definitely recommend Ruwa Travels and we already plan on using them again for our next visit to Belize.
