    Dennis Jr is very knowledgeable about the country's history which makes him a great tour guide. He took us to lunch at one the local restaurant that was very good. I definitely recommend touring with these guys again. Ask for Dennis Jr as your tour guide.

  • 5The Perfect Way to Experience Belize!

    Dennis Jr. was absolutely amazing! We spent the day visiting the Mayan ruins and cave tubing, and he truly made the experience one of the highlights of our trip to Belize. He was incredibly knowledgeable about Belize, the Mayan history, and the areas we traveled through, but what we appreciated most was how accommodating and personable he was. He never made us feel rushed and allowed us to really enjoy and take in each experience. He was the perfect guide for my husband and me…. Sooo, professional, patient, easygoing, informative, and just genuinely pleasant to spend the day with. By the end of the tour, it felt less like we had hired a guide and more like we were exploring Belize with a friend who happened to know everything about it. 😂 The Mayan ruins were incredible, cave tubing was such a fun experience, and Dennis Jr. made the entire day seamless from beginning to end. If you’re visiting Belize and have the opportunity to tour with Dennis Jr., BOOK HIM! We would absolutely recommend him and would tour with him again in a heartbeat. 🇧🇿❤️

  • 5Great first day in Belize 😊

    Dennis was the best guide. He had loads of historical information for us, which made the trip exciting and interesting. We climbed the Mayan Ruins; he was patient with us and gave a driving tour of Belize. I highly recommend him for any tour he does.

  • 5Want to go again!

    Our guide Mr. Brown “Sugar” was excellent and knew the place very well and the other guides. It was only me and my husband in the car all day, great spots, the cave tubing was really beautiful and easy but just a little challenging- walking there mainly. The hide did the majority of the work in the cave. Super fun! Good food, no waits anywhere, nothing was crowded, weather was perfect. Altun ha beautiful and easy to walk- you choose if you want to walk up to the top. Beautiful birds and plants all around.

About Belize City

Belize City is a harbour town on the Caribbean, the country's largest city and the usual starting point for the cayes, the reef and Maya sites.

Belize City sits low on the Caribbean coast at the mouth of Haulover Creek, which divides the town in two, and an old swing bridge over the creek is its best-known landmark. It was the capital until the government moved inland to Belmopan in 1970 after a devastating hurricane, but it remains the biggest city and the main port. Wooden colonial houses stand beside newer buildings, and the Museum of Belize occupies a former prison.

Top-ranked sights in Belize City: Xunantunich, Altun Ha, Lamanai.
