TOUR DETAILS

This half day adventure begins with a scenic drive through the farmlands of the Mennonite. Arriving at the large entrance of Barton Creek cave, we board canoes and slowly paddle through the serene crystal formed passages the ancient Maya believed to be their underworld. You'll find yourself ending this adventure with a cool invigorating swim at the entrance of the cave.




Detailed Itinerary

We drive Barton Creek, which is a large river passage over 4.5 miles long navigable by open canoe. At the large entrance of the creek cave we board our canoes, switch our headlights on and slowly paddle our way into the cave passage. While floating deeper into the passage we learn of the geology, archeology and Maya history of these caves. Our lamps bring to life crystal formations that are a few million years old. After exploring we turn our canoes around and float back out. We then park our canoes at the entrance of the cave and complete our half-day tour with a refreshing swim.
