Grutas de Lanquín in La Libertad

Enigmáticas cuevas, de un gran valor en la cosmovisión maya.Luz tenue, húmedo, frío y aire extraño, parece el cauce subterráneo vacío de un río.Es una experiencia formidable

Naturaleza al 100%... Guía don Luis recomendadisimo... Hice tubing y Grutas de Lanquin... Un poco resbaladizo el interior pero vale la pena... El tubing está en todo... 5km de aguas muy muy fresca... Recomendadisimo...!!!

Its a beautiful place you can visit if you are in Lankin, you must do tubbing, swimming in the river a great experience

Beautiful places but dangerous one of most unsafe places to visit but thrilling and fun. Must visit ones.local guide is needed pay half and after returning pay full.

What an adventure.This cavetour is crazy. We were very early so we kinda had a private tour just the guide and me and my girlfriend. it was insane for me to see that we entered the cave just with some candles - no helmet, no swimvest, no flashlights nothing. While it is somewhat frightening it is also super exciting. The Guide always tells you what to do and what to look out for.you can bring a waterproof phone or camera if you like.you will have to swimm, climb and probably hurt yourself a little while doing so.I recommend wearing water shoes. If you dont have any you can rent them there or you can buy them from a local for about 5$ a pair.There are also families selling food and little children selling chocolate close to the entrance. Buy it! the food is great and the chocolate is amazing and totally handmade (we saw that first handand the people living there are very poor.all in all an amazing place and a great adventure.

Un buen lugar para conectar con lo natural. Fue una experiencia extraordinaria

Es uno de los lugares más sensacionales que he conocido, vale mucho la pena y no me pareció costoso aunque el guía se paga aparte, entrada: extranjeros Q30, locales Q20, cubre la entrada al río que por cierto es súper lindo. Tiene área de parqueo y también se paga aparte (no sé el valorse pueden hacer muchas otras actividades. SENSACIONALES GRUTAS DE LANQUIN

Excelente tour por las grutas. Es recomendable pagarle a un guía local ya que ellos les pueden ir mostrando las diferentes formas de rostro y animales que se han formado adentro. De entrada cobran Q. 20 pp y pueden alquilar cascos y focos allí.

War wirklich cool!

Un lugar hermoso, con personas maravillosas que te muestran la historia de ese bello lugar

Amazing.

我們在洞穴外面順便買了75Q的tubing,包含guide，但只有30分鐘，不包含入場費。接著我們獨自進入探索，因為當地人推薦入夜後會有蝙蝠出洞，聽說非常壯觀，所以我們在日落後又過來一趟，不過沒有預期中那麼多的蝙蝠🦇，有點失望，不過只拜訪洞穴也是不錯的體驗，路面溼滑，空氣不太流通，裡面燈光照明足夠。

Es una experiencia corta, económica y muy rica. La recomiendo

I have excellent memories from this place. Located near El Retiro guesthouse where I stayed. Its a great attraction for the end of the day. The caves are quite impressive and full of bats. At the end of the tour they will turn of the lights si you can take amazing pictures of thousands of flying bats, just by using your flash. 5 stars well deserved for this site and the friendly staff.

The gruta itself is not very special if you have seen some before, but come at sunset time and watch thausands of bats fly out of the cave. Its great!

Fantástica experiencia, misterios y pensar en lo infinito que puede ser debajo de la tierra otro mundo, hay muchas rocas con formas de animales. Terreno resbaladizo por el lodo pero el hecho que pusieran iluminación y barandas en algunas partes complicadas ayuda mucho. Parqueo y sanitarios. ¿Qué llevar? Las ganas de aventura.Recomendable, volveré.

Bonita experiencia acompañado de Amalia Xol en las cuevas

This place is one of the most famous place to visit in Guatemala

Amazing place to visit. We stopped here on our way back from Semuc. 30q for foreigners and 10 for parking. The caves are amazing, there are lights inside and you can enter without a guide. We were alone exploring the amazing huge cave system. Very worth it!

Excelente lugar, agradable sensación mística, que nos recuerda que la tierra tiene mucha información que desconocemos.. la atención de los guías es muy buena, y la seguridad también.

Très décevant, rien de vraiment époustouflant. De plus le guide nous a été imposé et il était très mauvais. Incapable de nous parler de la grotte elle-même. Il ne faisait que nous montrer des formes très aléatoires en nous disant qu’il fallait y voir telle ou telle chose... Nul...

Great animal rock shapes, bats fly out the cave for food in the afternoon.

Unexplored caves where a river borns, nature reigns here, there is around 400 meters with ilumination and from there is full darkness and it depends on you to explore, there is also a underground cenote. Amazing place.

If you are a climber and want to go off the path to climb the inside of these caves... FIND CHRISTIAN (a local guide. You can go through the cave in a walking path that’s pretty easy and beautiful. But Christian created a whole adventure for us. From knowing all of the best picture spots and exactly how to take it to make it perfect, to taking us down a 150m off path down to the river, to taking us Climbing through holes instead of just walking on a path. Then he told me that he could tell my boyfriend knew how to climb cause that drop was a trial run to see if we had the skills to do more extreme climbing. He took my boyfriend behind the caves, to climb towers and ginormous stalactite with only a phone flashlight and their bare hands. My boyfriend rock climbs as a hobby and it was such a dream to climb a cave with nothing but a local guide as gear. He was absolutely fantastic. Made our whole trip worth it!

A HUGE cave, amazing!!! You walk inside unsupervised and you can easily get lost there. Even though they have lights installed, a torch is a must. Extremely slippery, wear proper shoes. The parking is 10Q and entrance is 30Q per person. You dont need a guide, just go straight to the cave and enjoy exploring.

Llevar calzado cerrado (preferiblemente tennisuna buena lámpara ya que las grutas de Lanquin son muy húmedas. Vale la pena recorrer este lugar.Lo mas recomendable es que lo visiten al final de la tarde y así puedan apreciar la salida de miles de murciélagos. Yo lo visité luego de Semuc Champey y fue un buen aprovechamiento del tiempo.

The resurgence is nice, but you enter fossil passage with quite a lot of damage. The best parts where beyond the electric lighting. A rope is needed to continue.

Bellisimo

beautiful

Nice cave near Lanquin. Totally possible to do it by yourself. No need for a tour.

Great

Super

Vendu comme étant un des must do de Lanquin, je mattendais a un spectacle époustouflant. Jai été un peu déçu. Attention ces grottes sont très bien mais ne vous attendez pas à quelque choses de magique. Laide dun guide rendra la visite un peu plus ludique car il vous proposera des ressemblances entre les concrétions avec des animaux ou des personnages.Les grottes sont très glissantes, les chaussures de rando sont recommandées et pensez à vos frontales ou autres lampes torches pour éviter des vous retrouver plongés dans le noir suite a la défaillance inopinées dune lampe ...

La verdad que la primera impresión es un poco cutre pero a medida que te vas adentrando sorprende. El camino está iluminado de forma regular por unas bombillas y la barandilla no da mucha seguridad, pero con un poco de precaución no hay ningún problema en recorrerla hasta el final.Hay tramos resbaladizos.Lo mejor de todo es la salida de los murciélagos sobre las 18pm. El espectáculo merece mucho la pena. Miles de murciélagos saliendo... Impresiona.La entrada son Q30.

La cueva es un lugar sorprendente pero tenebroso. El viaje en el río es una aventura que no te debes de perder si vas a este lugar.

Expectacular

Excellent bat cave to see mass exodus at dusk.

Need light further in the cave

Excellent place

Bat cave. It is worth watching the bats fly out at sunset.

Not sure about the caves, but I do know you can camp there. Overlanded there a few nights in my van. Can be loud at night, but guard can help.

Exelent rio

A fantastically magical place. Make sure to bring your own flash light and slip resistant shoes. A tour guide might be necessary but we dared the trail alone and had a blast!

Beautiful.

Great place but slippery and dark so take sensible shoes and flash light. Didnt need a guide, stayed until 6pm to watch the bats leaving the caves. Entrance fee 30q and 5q per person for tuktuk in each direction.

Natural bat caves

Hermoso lugar, con un altar ceremonial maya al final de tour, muchos murciélagos, pero en si nada claustrofóbico, muy recomendable incluso con niños.

Nice views. Safety could be better. Caves are moist and appropriate shoes should be worn. The guide wore crocks and he had absolutely no problem. I had hiking shoes and was slipping left and right. Safety bars could hurt you if you are not careful. The views inside and out are breathtaking.

Great place
