This was a very beautiful experience. Our guide was very knowledgeable and open to questions. It was very helpful that he emphasized being open to the experience and personalizing it, while also keeping us very aware of the beliefs and history behind what we were doing.

It can be very hot. Do it as early as possible. The trek down to the cave is not easy. A walking stick can be helpful. I wish the guide had cold bottled water ready. We didn’t bring any bec it was provided on our previous tours.

My guide (Alex) was welcoming, interesting and knowledgeable. The experience of the cleansing was purifying. This is not a tourist experience. It should not be done without purpose and intention. I am forever grateful to the people and my Shaman for allowing me access to such a sacred space.

This was an incredible experience. My guide was Alex and his understanding and willingness to share his Mayan tradition was a true gift.

This was a fantastic experience that really showed a side of Maya history and culture that is rarely seen by visitors! Make sure to dress for heat and to get dirty, this is an authentic experience. The walk to the ceremony isn't bad at all but wear good hiking shoes since it is rocky. The guide shared a lot of unique information and allowed questions to be asked before the ceremony began. Make sure to add this to your list of activities, I plan to return next year and do it again!
