If You're Into Adventure... The ATM Cave is it!

Travel back in time and follow pathways used by the Maya and discover lost worlds that have been hidden deep within the jungle for centuries. Take a tour with us as we unveil the mysteries and secrets of the Maya underworld.

Witness spectacular visions of the jungle,
while trekking across rivers and remote jungle trails.
We will take you back over 2,000 years in history as you learn about the Maya and witness first hand how the Ancients used these amazing caverns. 

See Burial Chambers with calcified remains,
ceremonial vessels and other cultural artifacts left
by the Maya centuries ago. 


Artifacts are often looted from caves
 
following their discovery. Because of this, passage through this cave is known to only a few select guides, who have permission from the Belize Department of Archeology to take visitors to this special cave. To this day, the cave has not been looted and nearly all of the cultural artifacts have remained in place as they were originally found in 1989. 

Actun Tunichil Muknal (ATM - Full Day)

The ATM cave is a 45 minute drive from San Ignacio, followed by a 45 minute nature hike. The hike includes three stream crossings and passes through the 6,700 acre Tapir Mountain Nature Reserve.
