Review & FAQ:

Rio Secreto is a majestic underground river featuring thousands of stalagmites and stalactites. A virtual crystal museum, it welcomes visitors into its depths to explore this mysterious Mayan underworld. Examining this spectacular river is like stepping back in time. The myriad geological formations tell tales of the past while crystal clear fresh waters welcome visitors to learn something new about themselves. Tours through this exceptional underground world require guests to hike and swim through this 1-km long river as they pass by some of the world’s most dramatic mineral formations. Access to the Nature Reserve, specialized guides, wetsuits, life jackets, lamp helmets, towels, nonalcoholic drinks, and a regional buffet are all included in the tour.
