Cultural experiences abound, as well as friendly locals who welcome travelers with open arms. Explore the heart of this tropical paradise with our carefully crafted shore excursions, offering an array of things to do in Belize during your time in port.

Cave Tubing Adventure: Journey into the Depths

Embark on an extraordinary adventure by joining in on our cave tubing, considered one of the most fun things to do in Belize. Picture yourself floating down the enchanting Caves Branch River, surrounded by breathtaking stalagmite and stalactite formations as you peacefully drift through dark caverns and massive chambers. You might even pass by some of the cave’s waterfalls, if conditions permit!

The caves take on a mystical aura as you witness unique rock formations and the play of light reflecting off the water. Listen as your voices and the sounds of the water softly echo off the walls as you immerse yourself in Belize’s subterranean wonders. Emerging into daylight, continue your float along the open river, enjoying the natural beauty of the surrounding jungle before purchasing lunch at a nearby restaurant.

Unveiling Ancient Mysteries: Mayan Archaeological Sites

Explore the hidden wonders of ancient Mayan archaeological sites, a must-do while in Belize. Transport yourself to an era long past as you walk the paths of this extraordinary civilization, gaining insights into their advanced knowledge and intriguing mysteries with your guide as you examine these revered ruins.

Visit Xunantunich, an ancient Mayan archaeological site known for its impressive El Castillo pyramid, which stands at approximately 130 feet (40 meters) tall. This site was a major ceremonial center and residential complex, with its name translating to “Stone Woman” in the Mayan language, possibly referring to a local ghost story about a mystical maiden.

For a really one-of-a-kind experience, board a boat for a high speed river ride through the Belizean rainforest to the stunning ruins of Lamanai. Renowned for its well-preserved structures, including the towering Mask Temple and Jaguar Temple, Lamanai was continuously occupied for more than 3,000 years. One of the country’s largest Mayan sites, it served as a major ceremonial and trading center, showcasing the enduring influence of the Maya civilization in the region.

Being deep in the jungle, you will get to see a wide variety of animals on  the land and in the water, including crocodiles, tropical birds, and green iguanas. As you draw close to the site you will be greeted by the loud calls of the Howler monkeys; these primates have an amazing vocal range of up to three miles, their deep-throated vocalizations ringing down from the trees.

Unleash your inner Indiana Jones as you and your guide wander through the various monuments and temples, then ascend the High Temple and be rewarded with panoramic views at the top.

For those seeking one of the best things to do in Belize, zip-lining fits the bill perfectly. Feel the excitement on our exhilarating zip-line tour, offering breathtaking views of the canopy and a bird’s-eye outlook on the captivating natural scenery and wildlife of Belize.

Zoom between various platforms, with the highest one soaring at 120 feet. This thrilling circuit guarantees 45-50 minutes of continuous excitement and breathtaking jungle vistas, offering a unique perspective of Belize.

Afterward, celebrate your courageous spirit by taking a rejuvenating swim in the nearby river, or wander the surroundings while enjoying a leisurely lunch (food not provided), immersing yourself in the novel sights and sounds of the jungle.

Another excellent way to experience Belize’s rugged terrain is through an exciting Jeep tour.  Hop into a Jeep and buckle up for the ride of your life as you go off roading, traveling across dirt paths, lush wetlands, and over hills that form the base of the Maya Mountains. Along the way you will stop to visit one of Belize’s many cave systems, where your guide will explain the cave’s geology as well as how they were used by various cultures.  

Dive into the Depths: Hol Chan and Caye Caulker Boat Tour

Witness Belize’s colorful marine life on our snorkeling tour in the Hol Chan Marine Reserve, one of Belize’s oldest marine reserves and a top spot for diving and snorkeling.

Go below the water’s surface to see coral formations, sea grasses, sponges, and more than 100 species of fish including grunts, snappers, parrotfish, angel fish, short nose dolphin. Turtles and manatees make occasional appearances here too, usually between April to September.
