About this activity

An 11-hour immersive journey into Guatemala's most dramatic natural wonder, combining Semuc Champey's turquoise limestone pools with underground Kanba Caves featuring natural water slides. This remote eco-destination in Las Verapaces offers genuine disconnection and insight into Maya culture within pristine rainforest.

Have you heard the phrase “disconnect to reconnect”? The natural park of Semuc Champey is the best option if you want to reconnect with yourself in the middle of nature. Visit the region of “Las Verapaces”, where you'll feel completely disconnected from your daily routine. Pass through the rainy forest to a tropical paradise of fauna and flora. Learn about the different Mayan communities. Discover the remote Natural Paradise of Semuc Champey with its unique turquoise waters and natural pools. Immerse at the gates of the “infra world” like the Mayans used to believe, in a complex of caves where you’ll have fun at its natural slides. Are you ready for adventure?

Highlights

  • Swim in Semuc Champey's stacked turquoise natural pools fed by underground rivers
  • Explore Kanba Caves with natural waterslides and subterranean passages
  • Trek through primary rainforest spotting tropical fauna and flora
  • Learn about indigenous Maya communities and local traditions
  • Experience the 'underworld' landscape that holds spiritual significance for Maya peoples

Insider tips

  • Start early to beat crowds at the natural pools and enjoy better lighting for photos
  • Bring water shoes or sandals with grip—cave floors and slides are slippery when wet
  • The cave section involves wading through underground streams; waterproof bags protect cameras and valuables
  • Ask your guide about seasonal water levels—higher rainfall (May–October) creates more dramatic waterfalls but colder water temperatures

Good to know

  • Includes hotel pickup/drop-off from Cobán (confirm location when booking)
  • Physical activity is moderate-to-high: hiking, swimming, and cave navigation required
  • Bring swimwear, quick-dry clothes, towel, sturdy footwear, sunscreen, and insect repellent
  • The caves are cooler and dimly lit; a headlamp or flashlight is useful
  • Not wheelchair accessible due to terrain and cave passages

Who it's for
