“An exceptional experience overall. Percy was respectful, attentive, and professional, showing great regard for Belize's culture and our time, interests, and abilities. We felt unhurried, yet we stayed on schedule. Knowledgeable, articulate, and pleasant, he suggested an unexpected visit to the Belize Zoo, which added to our adventure. The wildlife, including toucans, crocodiles, and jaguars, was a memorable highlight. Strong work indeed.”— billmK8717CP
55. Xunantunich half-day tour from Placencia with lunch
4.5· 4 reviews· 7 hoursHalf-day trip from Placencia — visit Xunantunich Maya Ruins, including lunch and hotel pickup.
“Flaco is an excellent tour guide, showcasing deep knowledge and current archaeological and anthropological insights which he eagerly shared with us. He was friendly, cheerful, and attentive. Our driver, Dorian, was also commendable. The ruins were breathtaking, featuring an impressive array of pyramids and structures. However, the included lunch on the way back was disappointing; we were taken to a fast food chain with subpar food. We saw many local Belizean eateries along the route that we would have preferred instead.”— Amy_H
