People also ask
What does actun tunichil muknal mean?
Actun Tunichil Muknal (ATM for short) in Mayan means 'Cave of Stone Sepulcher'. This wonderful cave system is found in the foothills of the Mayan mountains. This famous cave contains four skeletons, ceramics, and stoneware left by the Mayas.
How much does it cost to go to the ATM Cave?
The cost was $135 USD per person for the tour, which we felt was reasonable. The tour itself lasted about 3 hours, including the hike to the cave and back. Overall, great experience with Phillip and Shamin at Yute Expeditions. If you're looking to do the ATM Tour I would highly recommend them.
How scary is an ATM Cave?
The scariest thing you will encounter is skeletal human remains, and that's more cool than terrifying (to some, at least.) Located specifically in the Tapir Mountain Nature Reserve in Western Belize, this tour takes about a total of four hours to complete.
