Top Belize Day Trips - page 4

If you're on the fence about booking a snorkeling trip in Belize, let this be your sign. We did the all-day adventure with Black Hawk and it genuinely exceeded every expectation. Our guides EJ and Al were the real stars of the day. They were knowledgeable, attentive, fun, and clearly passionate about what they do. At Hol Chan, they guided us through and pointed out marine life we absolutely would have missed on our own. Thanks to their patience, we even spotted a manatee! One of those moments you just can't plan for but never forget. They didn't just take us to beautiful spots, they taught us about what we were actually seeing. We left feeling like we learned something, not just floated around and got a tan (though we got that too). Kelvin helped us get geared up at the start and made sure everything fit properly, which made a huge difference in how comfortable we were in the water all day. The food was delicious and the portions were generous , exactly what you need after a full day in the water. The whole operation felt well-run from start to finish. If you want a snorkeling experience that's equal parts adventure and education, with guides who actually care about your experience, book Black Hawk. EJ, Al, and Kelvin, you made our trip. Thank you!

This experience was really nice and I totally recommend. I felt we didn’t really know the planning for the day so here is a big overview: - you will take a bus to Xunantunich (15min drive) and visit the site for about 2h - you will then go on another drive for 1h30 to the caves - once there, you will have lunch (homemade lunch, really nice), be able to change into swimsuits and leave for the caves (be sure to take water shoes and a t shirt that can go into water) - you will walk for about 25min with a tube both in forest and water and then go in the tube once in the cave - the cave tubbing is really nice and relaxing - then you go back to the changing rooms before jumping in the bus for the way back I didnt really know that before doing the tour but don’t forget walking shoes for Xunantunich visit (with sun cream) and water shoes and another t shirt for the cave tubing (shoes that you are confortable walking with and that can go into water). Enjoy !!

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.
