Our top 3 favorite tours to take for adventurous couples:

Sit back and relax as you take a trip to “The Underworld.” See why the Maya held these river systems that flow under the mountains so special.Adventurous Belize Vacation For Couples

Cave tubing is an absolutely unique experience like none other. Your guide will get you outfitted with safety gear and a tube. After a short hike to find the river in the jungle, you’ll plop down in your tube at the edge of a massive cave entrance. Here the river flows under the mountains into pure darkness. The Maya held these locations as sacred places and immersing yourself in this environment you’ll quickly learn why. As you enter into the cave the light quickly begins to fade. All you can hear is the sound of water running and air rushing through the cave. With your head lamp you can see the cave walls getting narrow and the sound of water getting louder. The familiar sound of a waterfall is quickly approaching, but you’re not sure just how close. Luckily your skilled guide will navigate you through the underworld safely. There are many places to exit your tube and explore the expansive caves.
