Options de l'excursion
Itinéraire
Nous commençons notre voyage à travers les terres agricoles où vous pouvez voir la communauté mennonite d'Upper Barton Creek et découvrir leur mode de vie traditionnel. Nous atteignons la grotte de Barton Creek, dont une grande partie reste à explorer et s'étend sur des kilomètres, dont 4,5 miles sont navigables en canoë ouvert. A l'entrée de la grotte, nous montons à bord de nos canoës, allumons nos phares et commençons à pagayer lentement dans le passage de la grotte. En flottant plus profondément dans le passage, nous apprenons la géologie, l'archéologie et l'histoire maya de ces grottes. Nos lumières donneront vie à des formations cristallines vieilles de millions d'années. Après avoir exploré les grottes, nous faisons le tour de nos canoës et retournons à l'endroit où nous les garons et terminons notre excursion d'une demi-journée par une baignade rafraîchissante.
Barton Creek Cave avec Jungle Zipline: Chacun de nos quatre circuits vous propose un retour à la plate-forme principale sur une course de 500 pieds via notre plate-forme élévatrice dans la jungle. Cette visite de 2 heures est destinée aux amateurs de tyrolienne et combine les niveaux Explorer et Intermedio dans plus de 2700 pieds de tyrolienne, composée de 9 pistes et de 15 plates-formes qui vous emmènent à travers la jungle. Grotte de Barton Creek avec ferme aux papillons et jardin botanique: Ici, vous pourrez voir des volées de papillons exotiques de diverses espèces, du bleu irisé à l'orange magnifique, du jaune éclatant au gris intrigant. Il existe également une collection botanique de plus de 120 espèces de plantes, dont des orchidées. Barton Creek Cave avec Big Rock Falls: Une cascade de 150 pieds qui coule sur les rochers de granit de Privassion Creek. Nous descendons l'escarpement caché au fond de la Mountain Pine Ridge où nous arrivons à la magnifique cascade et à la piscine de cristal dans laquelle l'eau en cascade se jette dans une brume rafraîchissante.

Had a great day on this tour. We explored the cave by canoe and the butterfly farm. The guide was very knowledgeable, friendly and professional. Highly recommend.
I did the Barton Creek canoeing half day. I had already done another trip with Maya Walk so they gave me $10 off. Only five in our group as maybe not the most popular tour. Yesterday I had done ATM cave where no photos are allowed so this was good as we could paddle inside another cave taking photos. This proved to be difficult as I was a solo paddler in my own canoe. I had wanted my own canoe anyway. I have my own kayak so paddling was not a problem but maybe beginners may struggle. Dropped me back off in the town centre.
We had a terrific time with Alex. He was easy going, very friendly and went out of his way to provide us with pertinent and fascinating information on geology and history to better understand the importance of the cave for the Maya. The canoe trip was a real delight, very relaxing and allowing us to enjoy the beauty of the cave at its best. Great swim at the end of the trip. Memorable experience! Nic & Anne
Alex guided and paddled us expertly on a great fun and hugely informative c.1km canoe trip deep into the cathedral scale majesty of Barton Creek yesterday . Delicious lunch beforehand in the serene grounds with a refreshing swim in the freshwater river to top it off
A second trip with this great company today. We had relaxing canoe trip through the spectacular Barton Creek Caves. Only a minute from the car & you are in the water in a very pretty landscape. A few moments from that you’ll be in the cave for around an hour with headlights & helmet. We had the excellent Ed as our guide and paddler. We were very grateful for Ed’s help as it enabled us to focus on photos and the experience. Ed explained the geology & Maya history very well followed by a very nice lunch. Thank you and totally recommend.
Edeoni is one of THE BEST tour guides I have ever had! You should absolutely book your Xunantunich morning tour + Barton Creek canoeing afternoon tour with MayaWalk Tours and request if you can have Edeoni as your guide. As far as MayaWalk, as a company as opposed to others, I reviewed tour options online as well as walked and spoke with all the tour operators along Burns Avenue. I chose to book with MayaWalk and am happy I did. I am traveling with my mother so we chose the canoe option as it was the easiest and you don’t get wet. There is an option to swim after you finish canoeing. MayaWalk accepts credit card or cash and provides delicious coffee at their office. Edeoni is from San Ignacio and very knowledgeable about the area. He was very informative during the tour. My mom is afraid of heights and he was amazing helping her, encouraging her and keeping her calm while climbing up and down El Castillo. An unexpected surprise and my highlight was that Edeoni showed us a tarantula hole and I got to hold a tarantula. He is also knowledgeable about the different birds in the region and can point them out to you with binoculars. Lunch was great as well with rice and beans, chicken, coleslaw, a little chocolate cake and juice. After canoeing, there was another company with an inexperienced tour guide. They did not navigate the cave well and flipped their canoe when trying disembark. Edeoni was the one to help the other group. Therefore, book with MayaWalk and request Edeoni. I highly recommend booking with MayaWalk and would recommend the tour we did. Thank you MayaWalk and thank you Edeoni.
Awesome guide and driver. Marvin and Andy !! So informative and displayed such professionalism. You can tell they really love what they do ! Thank you for a wonderful adventure!!
We did the Barton Creek tour with Everell as our guide. He was very attentive to the group and helped with photos. It was a fabulous outing!
We had a great day at Barton Creek Cave with our guide Jaser who was very knowledgeable and good company! Would definitely recommend this tour for a relaxing half-day experience near San Ignacio :)
We had such a great day on this tour! We have younger kids, so they were so great in suggesting this for us. The cave was amazing and the creek was so refreshing and beautiful! The girls loved the butterfly farm. We love the picnic lunch they prepared. It was such a great day and our guides were so wonderful! Highly recommend!
