Autumn_L, Apr 2026

Incredible Experience!

This was an awesome experience! Our guide, Angel, was fun and informative. He went out of his way to make sure everyone on the tour had the best time (even helping one of the other travellers propose <3 ) The lunch was absolutely delicious and the cave tubing exceeded all expectations. Highly recommend :)

The tour was excellent. The guide was knowledgeable, and worked to keep us ahead of the crowds going into the cave so that we weren't caught up in a bottleneck. I would highly recommend Maya Walk Tours again, and intend to use them on other excursions in the area.

The Blue Hole tour was amazing, and the crew took the experience to another level. It was a bucket list birthday gift to myself, and it lived up to my expectations. The crew was amazing, they made everyone comfortable like you are part of the family.

Tikal SUNSET, Archeological focus and Wildlife Spotting Tour (South and East)

Nehha_D, Apr 2026

One of the best tours I...

One of the best tours I have ever been on. The site was amazing and so was our guide. We saw so much wildlife (lots of monkeys) and got to seethe sunset from a beautiful view point. The pacing was great and we leaned a lot about the history of the site. The food/drinks provided before the tour was great, come hungry!

Jungle Pontoon Waterfall Adventure Tour

Asha_B, Mar 2026

Most amazing day!

This was an amazing day with a mix of laid back vibes on the pontoon boat to cool adventures like climbing up a waterfall. The guides made the day- I’m a 57 year old woman who is not adventurous. The guides never left my side as we we swim, climbed and even got me to swing off a rope into the water. Lunch was delicious and plentiful. I loved this day even more than I thought I would.

Belize Int'l Airport to Belize City Water Taxi or Belize City to BZE Airport

sdjohnson23, Mar 2026

Great Experience

Our driver was very polite, funny, and great conversation. Got us from point A to B without any issues with plenty of time to spare. Sometimes they pick you up in a van and sometimes it’s similar to an Uber/Lyft ride, but it’s safe and easy from the point of your arrival at the airport. They are always there waiting for you with a sign and a ride ready to go within minutes. Communication is also excellent and if your flight is delayed they are on top of it. I have used this service a few times now in Belize and it has always been a delightful experience.

Tikal Day Trip with Local Lunch from San Ignacio

Cara_W, Mar 2026

Great tour!

We really enjoyed this tour. It is about an 11-hour tour but the guide we had was very good and made the Tikal experience amazing. He had a lot of knowledge and enthusiasm for the area. He was very attentive to the variety of people in our group and abilities. As others have noted, make sure you bring snacks, comfortable shoes, and anything needed for heat and humidity. The lunch on the way home was AMAZING. Just be prepared for an 11 hour day, but you will enjoy it!

Private Altun Ha Maya Ruin & Belize City Adventure From Belize City

Kate_S, Jan 2026

A must for those interested in the history of Belize and the Mayan people. We loved it!

Our private tour (two couples) was originally scheduled for Tuesday. Due to circumstances beyond his control, the owner Jose needed to change our tour to Wednesday. It was handled very well, and we were glad to adjust our tour. On Wednesday, Jose picked us up at the ferry dock at 8:30. He started the excursion with a tour of Belize City and some of the history of Belize. We arrived at Altun Ha early enough that we beat the cruise buses and had the historic site pretty much to ourselves. Jose's knowledge of the Mayan site was deep. We had enough time at the site to be very satisfied. As we were leaving, six cruise buses arrived, so the timing was perfect! After leaving Altun Ha, we were taken to a wonderful little restaurant for a lunch of the National Dish of Belize: stewed chicken, coconut rice and beans, and fried plantains. It was fabulous. We were returned to the ferry in plenty time for the 3:00 p.m. ferry. Our entire group agreed that we would definitely do a tour with Jose again.

So happy that I chose this tour. The experience is much more intimate than any other Mayan ruins. Not crowded at all’ at times, we have the place all to ourselves. Out guide Leo was excellent. He is experienced and knowledgeable, made this tour much more worthwhile.

Jungle Horseback & Cave Tube Adventure

greg_b, Nov 2025

highly recommend this tour

It was over and above what you think it would be. It was all because of Marcos (driver/guide) and Green Acres Farm who really made this special. They were so very kind and showed us a great experience from the moment he picked us up at the terminal to dropping us back at the pier. I would highly recommend this tour because of the personal touch they provided and showing us everything about their native country from the types of trees to the giant spider and a local lunch. Each part of the tour was so beautiful from riding the horses through the woods and seeing the waterfall to tubing in the amazing cave. Again it was because of the personal touch that made this so much fun!!!

Matt_W, Aug 2025

We all really enjoyed...

We all really enjoyed cave tubing. Wasn't too sure what to expect, but so glad we did it. It's about an hour's drive from the cruise port. The walk through the rainforest and gentle trip through the caves on our tubes with helpful and knowledgeable guides was amazing and unlike anything else we experienced during our cruise. Highly recommended.

Guided Altun Ha Ruins, Rum factory & Belize sign from Belize City

Kimberly_M, Jul 2025

Take this tour with Percy!

Percy was an amazing guide! He took the time to explain the history of Altun Ha and the country of Belize as well. The ruins themselves are impressive and you can feel the history of the site. The Belize sign was just a great photo opportunity! And the Travelers Rum Factory was a good time, plus interesting to see the bottle production through the viewing window. We did pay extra to add ziplining to our tour, but this was amazing. The guides Manuel and Wilfredo (Fred) were fun patient with us 2 scared ladies. Again, Percy was awesome and it was a fantastic tour!
