Description
About Location
The Nohock Che'en Caves Branch Archaeological Reserve is home to a network of caves that were once sacred to the ancient Maya. These caves are filled with stunning rock art, including hieroglyphs, figures, and animals.

One of the best ways to explore the caves is to grab an inner tube and take a float trip on the Caves Branch River. This is a great way to see the caves from a different perspective and to learn about the history of the area.

Tours of the caves run daily, and they typically last for about 2 hours. The tours are led by experienced guides who will teach you about the history of the caves and the ancient Maya. 

If you're looking for a unique and unforgettable experience, then a float trip through the Caves Branch River is the perfect thing for you.
