Highlights

  • Laze on the sandy shores of Caye Caulker off the coast of Belize. Swim in the warm waters of the Caribbean and snorkel through shallow reefs and atolls surrounding the cayes.
  • Join a group of local women at a co-operative in San Ignacio, where they’ll show you how to cook up some traditional recipes and talk about the organisation they founded.
  • Discover the remains of a once thriving Mayan city at the Lamanai Archaeological Site, reached by a boat trip that reveals some of Belize’s most colourful birdlife.
  • Take a day trip to the impressive Tikal National Park, just a hop, skip and a jump across the border into Guatemala. These Maya ruins have become one of the most important archaeological sites in Maya history.
  • Uncover the secrets of crystallised skeletons and crumbling palaces near San Ignacio that have been preserved in their natural glory.
  • By travelling on this trip, you’ll directly support our Intrepid Foundation partner, Eden Reforestation Projects. Donations help them provide local employment opportunities and tackle climate change one tree at a time as they restore forests across 10 different countries.

Back in 1989, two guys from Melbourne, Australia by the names of Darrell and Manch set off on an adventure to the other side of the world. They travelled to Africa and without air conditioning on their modified truck, they filled it with supplies, some beer, a bunch of aviator sunglasses, and...

    I had such a wonderful time! Our group was amazing and our guide went above and beyond to make sure we saw even more of the country. He helped arrange extra tours, made sure we went to the best places and it all felt very safe with him. Hotels were intrepide style - ok to sleep but on the run down side.

    Guide, Shaquille was excellent!!! Overall tour was fantastic. Everything went smoothly. Accomodations were good, including transportation, tour guides & experiences were fantastic. Loved Lamanai & Women's co-op demo & lunch was very well done. Experience at Tikal was out of this world - very informative. However, when comparing the rates that Intrepid charged for the transfers that I made ahead of taxis & the rates of the transfers to and from the airport to Belize that Intrepid charged us

    This tour was truly astounding. I cannot say enough good things about it. It was well planned, well organized, and superbly coordinated by our miracle-worker of a guide, Rayes de Leon. The tour took in the sights as advertised and went far beyond that with Rayes teaching us everything from the grand history of the Mayan people to the minutia of local plant life. He was tireless, starting before any of us were up and not stopping until we were all safely tucked into our hotel rooms. In short, the tour was far above my expectations and Rayes de Leon is a superman!

    It was a good tour. The guide was great and helpful! It was a small group which was nice. It was a little more rough terrain than I expected but that was just me. But it did not take away from the trip experience. The women's co op lunch was a great experience and the food was fantastic. Ending the trip with island life on Caye Caulker was perfect.

    A good balance of sights and activities in a week! From the lowland to the highland to the island, Intrepid's Land of Belize delivered the kind of experience I was hoping for. Highlights for me was the ATM caving tour in San Ignacio and swimming with sharks and rays in Caye Caulker. Our guide Marco was there to sort out all the kinks and made sure everyone had a good time. Thankfully our group dynamic was very good so we made new friends after the trip!

    Great, action packed tour with a small group. Marco was a great guide who dealt with everybody's individual needs/plans, Great sightseeing and options, ATM caves are a must if you are physically able. Accomodation choices were good (very high level in Belize city), maybe an improvement would be an option for upgraded accomodation at the beach in Caye Caulker/a resort - but clean and safe, only minutes to walk to the coast/beaches.

    This was my first solo traveling experience and it was amazing! Our tour guide Wilbert, was the best. Not only did I feel safe, he had all the connections to everything any of is wanted to do. He also sprinkled in lots of history and information about his beloved Belize which made the trip even more special!

    Well-planned from beginning to end, a good combination of new things to learn, the nature to enjoy, wonderful weather and fantastic sceneries. We arrived a day early and stayed in Biltmore Best Western. All hotels are good, the excursions that our guide offered were excellent. We did two excursions through Viator and two with the tour operators that our guide has offered, and I would say that the ones we had locally through our guide are better value for money. Caye Caulker is a nice and relaxed place, having the Caribbean flavour, sadly, there are no sandy beaches there, but there are plenty of ways to spend a couple of days with all the range of excursions offered. Overall, I'd definitely recommend this tour.
