Fantastic adventure!!

Karen_M

, Dec 2021

All was great. The cave tubing was especially fantastic and so relaxing. This was one of the coolest family adventures we’ve ever experienced. The drive through the country side to the different activities was also relaxing. Paul w/ Private Adventures was an awesome and hospitable guide and very punctual picking us up at our hotel! If you are planning to have the guide drive you to the airport for a flight to one of the cayes, afterwards, make your flight reservation from the smaller municipal airport, only because it’s easier and less expensive to fly after the activities (suggested by tour operator).

Very enjoyable Belizien Excursion

Our tour guide Dorian, with Private Belize Adventures (501 6523163) provided a fun and fact filled day for my wife and I. We were picked up at our hotel, The Great House Inn, in Belize City and driven to the the Cave Tubing activity. We were introduced to our personal river guide, Cous, who shared the origins of the cave and its importance to the Mayan people. The walk to the river took 20 minutes, and the float down the river into the cave lasted an hour and it was spectacular-crystal clear and cool water. Dorian took us to a local restaurant where we ate authentic Belizien fare. Altun Ha did not disappoint! What an incredible site to see- a fascinating history of the Mayan culture. The steps to the top of the Sun God structure is not for the faint at heart. Thanks again to Dorian for giving us a glimpse of Belize and it's people.

It was a lot of fun. Our guide was great. Knowledgeable and very nice. There was a lot of walking and climbing, but we did the tubing after the ruins, so we cooled down in the water.

Amazing Tour! We lucked out and went on a day where there were no cruise ships, so we were one of maybe 10 people at the ruins. The drive was about an hour/ hour and a half from Belize City to the ruins. When we were at the ruins it was slightly drizzling so be careful as my husband slipped and hurt his need we are young and in good health so be careful if this is a concern. Cave tubing was awesome! The water was cool and refreshing when we went in early December. We had to walk about a half hour with a large tub so make sure you are able to. If you can, bring water shoes as you are required to wear some type of close toed shoe no flip flops. We ended up again being the only people going through the caves when we went we saw others coming out as we went up and down but had the caves to ourselves. It was quiet and eerie at some points but amazing.

We booked the private tour and it was wonderful! Our tour guide, Jerson, was amazing! Very knowledgeable about the sites we visited and general knowledge about Belize. We spent the whole day with him and really enjoyed his friendliness, sense of humor and professionalism. This was our first time to see Mayan ruins and they are quite impressive. The Cave Tubing is a must! Unlike anything we had seen before. We were glad we choose to include both locations on our excursion. FYI - It is required that you wear tennis shoes or pool shoes on the tubing. They rent 3 and sell 10 shoes there. Nice bathroom facilities at the Caves so you can change in and out of your suit there if you don't want to wear it under your clothes. You WILL get wet from your bottom down. We were very happy with this company and this excursion!

We had a nice time on this tour. Our tour guide, Davin, took the time to wait for our friends because we had gotten separated the day before. He was very knowledgeable and told about different plant species, termiteswhich three of us tried-nutty taste, and even showed us the money tree. The caves were phenomenal and the formations were intricate. This tour was the best, most relaxing experience. At lunch we tried gibnut, a local dish which was quite tasty actually. The three if us who had it could understand why Queen Elizabeth had it on her last visit to Belize. The Mayan ruins at Altun ha were impressive and 4 of us climbed all the way to the top of one structure and were rewarded by awesome views. We highly recommend this tour!
