Description
Emerge yourself into a maze of river branches with untouched foliage terrains that form habitats for hundreds of species of wildlife like crocodiles & spider monkeys. Feel the rush en route to the New River shiftlessly flowing into the sudden openness of the New River Lagoon. A few hundred meters beyond the banks of this revealing lagoon concealed by the rainforest is Lamanai Mayan Site. This Mayan city bears a powerful history that it still inspires the feeling of supremacy, that it once held. With about 95% of the city still remaining unexposed, you can experience the sudden presence of the temples as you trail along the jungle paths. Lamanai is found within a reserve of wildlife and plants, where along the marked paths you will come across labeled trees and plants and various other wildlife creatures.

The tour offers a complimentary hour & 30 minutes Water Taxi transfer to Belize City where you will journey along Caye Caulker, Caye Chapel, and mangroves and get a glimpse of St. George’s Caye before arriving at the commercial City of Belize where you will meet your tour guide. From there you board their private vehicle as you begin a 50-60 minutes journey on the Phillip Goldson Highway to Tower Hill. From here you get to know your captain, aboard the boat and off the amazing jungle river safari, and on your way to the Mayan City of Lamanai.

Truly Spectaular
A group of 6 of us had a wonderful time in Nov of this year. We saw everything from iguanas to howler monkeys before we even got to the ruins. Javier and our river guides were filled with knowledge and facts about Belize, it's history, and it's creatures. There wasn't a moment wasted from start to finish, nor was there ever a lack of something stunning to look at or listen to. We would highly recommend ... more this tour to anyone looking to spend time in Belize. and cannot rate this tour high enough.

WOW!
What a great tour! I saw monkeys, crocodiles, iguanas, and all kinds of birds and flowers. The guides were so knowledgeable. Javier is a Marine Biologist! They made everything so fascinating. I climbed the temples and saw amazing views. But the best part was the boat ride. What a rush! So fast! I'll be talking about this tour for years to come. And boy, did I get great photos. Some are going right ... more on my screensaver.
