Ian Andersons is a great place. Cave tubing there involves a truck ride to the cave; hiking to then into the cave, wading to a deep enough part, then riding large inner tubes on a river thru the cave. The amount of hiking and wading depends on the amount of water in the river (what time of year, etc.) Be prepared to get wet. You must where shoes, as again depending on when you go, you may have to hike during the trip inside the cave to get to more water. The guides are great. Tell you about Mayan history of the area and perhaps show you ancient artifacts. It can be a strenuous adventure, but the guides try to gear its complexity to you. But I am not sure that it may be appropriate for a 4 year old. I am sure that you will have fun. Stephi G

Did a great tour out of Jaguar Paw Resort also a wonderful place to stay,the cave is on the property site and James the tour guide was so nice.We found a tooth and some pottery on our tour and yes, we left them there for others to enjoy. As far as the kids they will hve a great time. Just wear shoes with a rubber bottom for the cave floor is very slippery. If you go tell Cy that the tattoo couple from CHicago say Hey!!

Hi, Ian's cave trip is a true Indiana Jones Adventure. I plan family and group trips to Belize and highly recommend Ian's trip, the feedback has been that it is an unbelievable experience, however, he won't allow a 4 year old on the trip.

Laura, I love kids, so don't take this wrong. It would best to find someone to keep your four year old at home. The four yr old will need so much attention, to be safe, with so much water,sun, sand, boats and etc. The eight yr old will need of your attention, but with only one, all of you will have a good time.
