Overview

Join us for this historical and action packed overnight trip to the beautiful Cayo district. On the way to San Ignacio town, we will stop off at the epic Xunantunich mayan ruin, a magnificent archaeological site which was home to 200,000 Maya people over 1000 years ago. We will then get the opportunity to explore San Ignacio town's market and nightlife. You have the option of staying in either a shared dorm or a private room at Bella's backpackers, or you also have the option to find your own accommodation. In the morning, we will head to the famous ATM caves for an action packed day exploring the cave chambers and learning about the fascinating Mayan burial grounds. We will head back to the resort in the afternoon.
