Cave Tour & Waterfalls
We had a rainy day for the experience but our guide still made it wonderful. I didn’t realize the first part of the day would included a cave tour, which was very informative. Our guide Allan added wildlife watching in the mix, pointing out monkeys and after learning I’m a birdwatcher, taking extra care to point out rare bird species to me. Though we didn’t swim with the weather, it was still beautiful scenery to explore and a great lunch.
Operator response
Jenny, we are thrilled to hear that this experience was still amazing despite the rain (perhaps that was what made it even more memorable!)
We are happy to hear that Allan shared so much information with you and that he pointed out bird species and other wildlife - it is always more memorable when you connect with people and nature.
We look forward to hopefully hosting you when you are in Belize next!
With gratitude,
The Ruwa Travels Team
