Raiders Of The Lost Mayan Cave

If action and adventure is what you are looking for, be prepared for a thrill of a lifetime as you trek your way up a hillside trail in the Belizean jungle, seeking “Dragon’s Mouth,” the ceremonial entry site into the Mayan underworld; you will get dirty and wet as you travel through different levels of the Mayan underworld, by way of “via-ferrata,” zip lines, swinging suspension bridges, and an exciting rappel down a cliff face!

On this excursion you will:

• Board an air conditioned bus and leave the city. Watch as the scenery changes and the road gets more rugged as your 75-minute journey takes you from the tame to the wild. Arrive at the remote jungle outpost for a quick rest stop and then on to the base camp where you are transformed into the ultimate explorer.
• Receive a safety briefing and your gear (helmet, light, gloves and harness) before your hike into the dense jungle. Follow your highly-trained guides and headlamps as they lead you through a maze of multi-chambered caves filled with magnificent formations, geological wonders and Mayan history.
• Feel a sense of awe as you crawl through small openings that reveal hollowed ceremonial chambers, hiding Mayan artifacts used in their ancient rituals centuries ago.
• Connect your safety lines as you explore the upper layers of your subterranean abyss before rappelling 20 feet down a rock face; upon landing you reenter the cave and continue your quest
• Learn about this amazing hidden world and its formation from your guides as you climb over rock, trek through underground waterholes (waterholes during rainy season) and navigate narrow passages.
• Ride a 300-foot zip line over the jungle floor and from the exit of one cave, into the mouth of another cave filled with protruding stalactites and stalagmites, accessible only by this jungle/cave flight. Test your skill as you navigate your way through a network of pillars on a swinging rope bridge before propelling out of the mouth of the cave on an inclined traverse, down to your jungle trail for a short hike back to your bus.
• Be exhilarated and amazed as you head back to Big Hill Station having worked up an appetite for the jungle barbeque that awaits you.
• Head back to your ship with memories to last a lifetime; photos of your adventure and souvenirs are available for purchase at Big Hill Station.
