Description
For an exciting combination of Xunantunich and water sports, try our kayaking and Xunantunich tour! This adventure starts at the impressive site of Xunantunich, which means “maiden of the rock” in Maya. This site takes you back to the time of a once great and flourishing civilization. View stellae, ball court, elite residential palaces, a sacred altar for blood-letting rituals, and a ceremonial courtyard. Climb to the top of El Castillo which is 130 ft and enjoy a panoramic view of the picturesque landscape below. After learning about the magnificent Maya history, it's time for the adrenalin rush-gliding down the rapids of the Mopan River on your sit-on-top kayaks. The challenge is to stay on top of the kayak as you ride down while at the same time enjoying nature in this particular area.

One of our Belize Highlights!
We had the best time on this excursion!! The beginning tour of Xunantunich was informative and fun, with our tour guide Cisco as the absolute best. He answered every question with humor, honesty, and kindness. When it started to pour, we did a literal rain check and went inside for a lunch, but by the time we came out it was beautiful again. The river kayaking could not have been more fun. We saw ... more incredible wildlife from iguanas to bats, and Cisco pointed out everything. He helped when a few of our group fell into the water, which was funny much more than it was dangerous with Cisco's help. We also used a rope swing and went through rapids. Overall, the experience could not have been any better and I could not recommend this any more!!

GREAT TIME!
Kayaking was super fun and exciting! I was a bit nervous at first because I don't know how to swim but Edward and his team made me feel safe and confident in my kayak. Belize Caving Expeditions did an excellent job with explaining the do's and dont's when in the river. I had an amazing time...and the best part of it is making it through all the rapids without flipping over!
