    We begin our return to Cancun, but first, we make a stop in Belize at Nohoch Che’en National Park, a beautiful natural rainforest reserve, to hike up some short trails to reach Caves Branch creek and begin our cave tubing adventure. Today our guide takes us to visit the Nohoch Che’en cavern system and to explore inside some unbelievable caves that the Mayas once used for placing offerings to the Xibalba gods. We begin at the top of the Caves Branch River where will jump in our inner tubes and enjoy a gentle ride down into the caves. Our guides provide us with helmets and headlamps to illuminate our path. As we journey into the caves, enjoy the fascinating commentary of your guides about how the cavern system was formed and also what they were used for by the ancient inhabitants of Belize. If you are not an expert maneuvering an inner tube, your guides will connect your tube to theirs and help steer you to success!
    Hop on and off your tube in all the special spots and get ready to squeeze through rock formations to enter large chambers full ancient pottery and Mayan offerings! Next, get ready to jump off a 15 ft rock inside the caves and continue exploring.
    The river will continue to take us back to the entrance of the park, where a delicious barbecue meal awaits.
