Trends / Adventure

Soaring through a lush, exotic jungle inhabited by large cats such as leopards, jaguars and ocelots on a zip line gives any traveler a fun memory from vacation. Add in a plunge through an ancient ceremonial cave that transitions into a water tubing adventure and any thrill seeker will get the pure adrenaline rush they desire. This one-of-a-kind zip line is found in Frank’s Eddy, Belize.

The tour starts with a short hike through the jungle to a launch pad where the 500-foot-long zip line begins. Once harnessed, riders glide through a series of zip lines that quickly approach the large opening to Jaguar Cave. Participants zoom by sharp stalagmites and stalactites while entering deeper into the mysterious rock formation.

After landing, travelers climb down and take a 25-minute walk to the Xibalba caves for the next leg of the adventure — it gets wet. A guide will float groups down into the sacred underworld chamber of the Maya on a relaxing tubing ride. Visitors can really soak in all of the natural beauty and history of the dark caves around them. Ending this excursion, the tour includes a Belize-style lunch with rum punch for those 18 years of age and older.

Travelers can book the adventure for $89.99 with Shore Excursioneer
