After the 2-hour road trip, we will arrive at "Bombil Pek" Caves! Before starting our tour we want to take a few minutes to let you know about today´s itinerary and the security protocols we´ll follow. You can feel free to ask any questions at any time and we´ll be glad to help.

Can you picture yourself entering the infraworld through a cavern system with lots of interesting formations of minerals? The ancient Mayas used to believe that caves were the entrance to the infraworld where some of their deities lived. Caves are still a sacred place for our living Mayan culture in Guatemala.

It is believed that the word “Bombil” means in q’eqchí “Sacred Stone”. The caves were seen as a pilgrimage place and different ceremonies used to take place here to ask for good harvests, health, power, among other requests.

Ceramic pieces and skulls were found here as well as rock painting. The rock painting dates approximately 28 centuries back and this was the first place in Guatemala where rock paintings were discovered!

This will be a day full of adventure and surrounded by a lot of nature. Have fun by practicing rappel to get down where the entrance to the caves is located. Discover the mineral formations inside and connect with the beliefs of an ancient culture.

If the weather is good we might end the day with tubing. Tubing is an activity where you let yourself be carried by the river while you´re on top of an inflatable.

After all these activities, we´ll return to the bus. This will take us one hour walking through nature.

Afterward all the adrenaline and adventure we´ll go to a nice local restaurant located just 2 minutes away from where the Bombil Pek Caves are located. Enjoy an artisanal pizza or a variety of other dishes they prepare.

Lunch is included and you can choose between the artisanal pizza or any other dish on the menu.

The last point in our itinerary is to take you back to your hotel in Coban so you can rest.
