With various languages spoken and cultural influences, Belize has developed into an extremely diverse country - this place is just waiting to be discovered and explored by the adventurous traveler on our Belize tours and excursions.

Belize Travel Tips

When planning a day trip in Belize, you should know the climate and currency used. Also, be aware of your different needs depending on your tour package. For example, you may need a swimsuit for water-based tours. Or, a good pair of walking shoes if most of your tour experience is on foot.

The climate of Belize is warm, with temperatures hovering around 80 degrees, so be sure to apply lots of sunscreen during your stay. If you forget to pack your own bottle, you can buy one at nearly any gift shop or supermarket.

From approximately late November to mid-April, the dry season yields less rain and more tourist activity than the rest of the year. However, it's always a great time to go on a tour or excursion in Belize! This country loves to celebrate, so check out the many holidays of the year Belize celebrates while planning your vacation.

The Belize dollar is the standard currency, but almost all places accept US dollars. Ask your tour guide specific questions about currency.

Belize City Shore Excursions Offer Best-in-Class Adventures

When your Caribbean cruise itinerary includes a port of call at the Central American country that’s neatly wedged between Mexico and Guatemala, and that sports a coastline on the Caribbean Sea, you’ll find a wealth of Belize City shore excursions that offer incredible land and sea adventures, including guided tours to the spectacular Mayan ruins of Belize.

Combine water-sport fun with active adventuring on Belize City cruise excursions that offer a chance to soar above the verdant Belize rainforest canopy on a zip-line course. See tropical birds and Howler monkeys at eye level as you fly from platform to platform. Then, explore the mysterious and magnificent Crystal Caves, admiring the stalagmites and stalactites as you drift through the caves in your personal inner tube.

For great beach-day escapes, book Belize City shore excursions that will take you to a secluded barrier island to swim with sharks and stingrays. Set within the Belize Barrier Reef, which is the world’s second largest, you’ll visit the delightful fishing village of Caye Caulker. With professional marine guides, gear up to snorkel and swim among the sharks and gentle stingrays while on your cruise to Belize . Learn about the ecological importance of the reefs as you admire the intricate coral formations. Afterward, sink your toes in the soft white sand as you enjoy basking in the sun. For carefree day of pure sun, fun, and Caribbean calypso music, choose a private island getaway where you can swim in clear blue Caribbean waters and soak up the sun and the laid-back beach vibe.

Day trips to the country’s exciting archeological sites and spectacular Mayan ruins are among the most popular Belize City shore excursions. Take a ferry ride to the ruins of Xunantunich, the most important archeological site in Belize, and climb to the temple of El Castillo while your guide shares tales of the ancient Mayan culture. Take a riverboat safari to the Mayan ruins of Lamanai, which may have been occupied as early as 1500 B.C., and climb to the top of one of the tallest ceremonial temples in Mesoamerica. Or you can cruise down the River Wallace to the Mayan site Altun Ha, the most visited Mayan ruin in Belize. In a lush rainforest setting, you’ll see the jade head carving of the sun god Kinich Ahau, believed to be carved from a single piece of jade and thought to be the largest jade artifact ever to be discovered.

Things To Do In Belize For Adventure Seekers

B elize is the “Jewel in the heart of the Caribbean basin” located south of Mexico and is the perfect location for an adventurous vacation. Belize has a rich history and many cultural influences that are represented in the country’s excursions. While Belize is a relatively new and smaller country, what it may lack in so-called traditional tourist attractions, it makes up for with incredible biodiversity, culture and adventure. Belize is the spot for cultural exploration, beautiful beach towns, natural wonders and unique adventures.

Whether you want to just chill at the beach, take a culturally rich excursion or get your shop on, Belize has plenty of options. Plan your trip to Belize, a quaint yet cozy country that is known for its lack of crowds and beautiful wildlife.

Explore The Altun Ha Ruins 

Located around 30 minutes north of Belize City, the Altun Ha Ruins site in Belize is a beautiful place to visit for those who packed their tennis shoes and want to experience a scenic cultural excursion. With steep inclines and plenty of stairs, the ruins in Belize are a great outdoor activity for those looking to keep in shape during vacation. The Altun Ha Ruins deliver a gorgeous reward for those that take on the site, which sits just at three square miles. 

There are even Altun Ha tours that delve into how the Mayans invented making chocolate from Cacao nuts sourced from Belizean lands. Accompanied by a knowledgeable tour guide who can highlight the historical importance of the Altun Ha Mayan ruins, it takes about one and a half hours to hike to the top of the structures and explore everything there is to see. 

Experience San Pedro’s Lively Culture

As the most popular tourist town in Ambergris Caye , which is the largest island off the coast of Belize, San Pedro is the perfect place to have an affordable beach stay. With its sandy shores, beautiful accommodations and cool ocean-front breeze, San Pedro provides a relaxing vacation experience. 

Enjoy the Carribean sun, fresh seafood and lounge in beach clubs in San Pedro. The town’s reef is a hub for aquatic excursions like diving and sailing but also is a nice place to sit back and relax. The Hol Chan Marine Reserve and Belize Chocolate Company are popular stops in town that can be paired with informational tours or enjoyed a la carte.

Exceptional Nature Excursions In Belize

Belize has many sites that are perfect for the nature enthusiast. The Monkey River and The Inland Blue Hole and St. Herman’s Cave both provide unique experiences that can be leisurely enjoyed. 

Monkey River is a conservation area that hosts howler monkeys, manatees, and tropical birds and reptiles. After arriving at Monkey River Village, visitors can enjoy a four mile upstream boat ride through the jungle where they can spot wildlife. Once the jungle trail spot is reached, a guide will lead visitors through the trail where they can hear howler monkeys and observe medicinal plants throughout the area.

The national eco-tourism park, The Inland Blue Hole and St. Herman’s Cave, spans 500 acres and is a gorgeous turquoise swimming spot. Home to diverse bird species and native plants, this location attracts visitors that enjoy cave tubing, zip lining, hiking or picnicking. At the 25-foot deep swimming hole, visitors can relax in cool waters or explore the nearby and immense underground cave system with a guide. 

Culinary Adventures

Belize is a wonderland for culinary enthusiasts interested in ethically sourced cuisine. The country is home to the second largest barrier reef and has an abundance of marine life sourced locally. The reef is a natural asset that is highlighted by Belize’s Spanish, West African, and Indigenous culinary influences and thriving culinary heritage. 

Placencia Village’s food scene hosts walking food tours, hands on cooking classes and even rum master classes and beach side coffee experiences. There are also private food tasting tours available in Belize City that explore city landmarks and local flavors. Get a fresh coco-loco drink cut and prepared in front of your eyes before perusing Belize City, the commercial capital and robust hub for travelers.

These adventurous attractions can serve as the perfect day trips during your visit to Belize. Take some time to appreciate the culture and nature of Belize while you are within its borders.
