Tour Overview
Until 2007, the Rio Secreto – also known as the Secret River – lived up to its name. This incredible underground waterway, discovered only in the last decade, is now one of Mexico's most pristine patches of nature. Experience a STEP walking tour that takes you on a bike and hike through this stunning natural beauty spot.
You'll be picked up from your hotel and taken deep into the jungle, where adventure awaits. You'll set out with an expert guide along ancient Mayan trails that are now part of the Rio Secreto Nature Reserve. Cycle along forest paths, learn about the exotic flora and fauna that thrive here, and discover the legend of the sacred La Ciaba tree.
You'll then meet a traditional Mayan healer who will perform a ritual with sahumerio – a traditional incense made from local herbs. Then, wade through the underground river's pristine waters, admiring the stunning stalactites and stalagmites along the way. Finally, there's a well-deserved buffet lunch with drinks at the end.
