We start at 8:30am with an hour drive through farmland where you can see the Mennonites in their traditional style of living. We reach Barton Creek, which is a large river passage over 4.5 miles long, navigable by open canoe. At the entrance of the cave we board our canoes, switch our headlights on and slowly paddle our way into the cave passage. While floating deeper into the passage we learn of the geology, archaeology and Maya history of these caves. Our lamps bring to life crystal formations that are a few million years old. After exploring the cave, we turn our canoes around and float back out. We then park our canoes at the entrance to the cave and complete our half-day tour with a refreshing swim.
