Overview
The ATM Cave, or Actun Tunichil Muknal, is an incredible natural wonder located in the heart of Belize. It is an underground cave system that was once used by the ancient Maya as a ceremonial site, and it is filled with stunning geological formations and ancient artifacts.
As you make your way into the cave, you'll be awed by the towering stalagmites and stalactites that line the walls and ceiling. You'll also have the opportunity to see some of the ancient Maya artifacts that have been left behind, including pottery, stone tools, and even the remains of human sacrifices.

Overall, the ATM Cave tour is an exciting and unforgettable adventure that is not to be missed. Whether you're an avid hiker, a history buff, or simply someone who loves to explore the great outdoors, this tour has something for everyone.

Atm Cave (actun Tunichil Muknal)When we arrive at Teakettle Village - Entrance to the Actun Tunichil Muknal Cave, we will start our nature walk. This hike will last between 30-45 minutes until we reach the cave. The entrance to the cave is actually a little natural pool inside the cave that we must jump into when we arrive and swim in for around 30 seconds. Keep in mind that all necessary safety gear will be given, and a knowledgeable guide will be with you at all times. Once you enter the cave you will have to pass through passages, climb large rocks, and walk and swim inside the cave. There are parts of the cave where you will find different Mayan artifacts including pottery, stone tools, and the remains of human sacrifices, this is the highlight of the tour. As you explore the ATM Cave, you'll also see a variety of stunning geological formations, including stalagmites and stalactites, which are created when water dripping from the cave ceiling mixes with minerals in the rock.

After our tour of the cave is through, we'll head back to the starting location so you can relax, use the restroom, change into dry clothing, eat a delicious picnic-style lunch, and take in the majesty of everything you will have witnessed.
