“Our trip to Belize was a great, beautiful adventure. We did the ATM cave & have not stopped talking about them since, most likely our highest recommended excursion. We don’t want to tell all the caves secrets, but the description is what it says plus so much more! We also explored Xunantunich Mayan ruins with a guide who not only provided a fantastic tour, but had so much knowledge & understanding of the Mayan culture.”

“We had the best time at Thatch Caye! We went for our honeymoon & could not have imagined anything better. The service is top notch. We really enjoyed our Mayan ruin & cave tubing excursion. It was a long day, but we enjoyed seeing more of Belize than just our little island paradise. Our guide was the best! There is no place better to be & we can’t wait to return.”

“We went on several excisions, including a Mayan ruins tour at Xunantunich & two full-day reef fishing tours. It was an honor to tour Mayan ruins with our guide, a Mayan descendent himself. He also knew we hadn’t seen the Belize state bird, the toucan, at that point in our trip & was able to spot a few & pull the car over on our drive so we could see them! We loved every moment of our trip & are already planning to return!”
