ATM is an archaeological cave experience that asks you to participate fully in the landscape. The day combines a forest approach, water crossings and movement through the cave before reaching areas associated with ancient Maya ritual activity and artifacts. Ka’ana has its own ATM guide, giving you a direct way to plan and experience this highly sought-after day through the hotel.

Cave tubing offers a different relationship with Belize’s cave systems. You float along the river and through limestone passages rather than moving through a more demanding archaeological route. Choose it when you want water, scenery and a sense of adventure at a more relaxed pace.

At Barton Creek, you approach the cave from the water. Your canoe moves through a broad limestone chamber as your guide introduces the geology and Maya history of the site. Choose this quieter, more contemplative experience when you prefer paddling and observation to a more physical cave day.
