Explore Xunantunich Maya Temples After your ATV adventure, we'll
continue to Xunantunich, one of Belize's most impressive ancient Maya
archaeological sites. To reach the archaeological site, you'll cross
the Mopan River on the historic hand-cranked ferry. Once inside the
archaeological reserve, your professional guide will take you through
the ancient Maya city and explain its fascinating history, culture,
and significance. The highlight of the visit is El Castillo, the
largest structure at Xunantunich. Climb to the top and enjoy
breathtaking panoramic views of the surrounding jungle and
countryside. You'll have time to explore the temples, plazas, and
ancient structures while learning about the Maya civilization that
once flourished here.
Traditional Belizean Lunch After exploring Xunantunich, we'll stop for
a delicious traditional Belizean lunch. Lunch typically includes rice
and beans with stewed chicken, along with other local favorites. This
is a great opportunity to relax, enjoy a traditional Belizean meal,
and recharge before beginning the journey back.
Return Journey After lunch, we'll begin our return journey toward
Belize City. The drive from the Cayo District back to Belize City
takes approximately 2 hours, depending on traffic and road conditions.
Once we arrive in Belize City, you'll return to San Pedro using your
selected transportation:
By Boat: Approximately 1½-hour water taxi ride from Belize City to San
Pedro. By Plane: Approximately 15-minute flight from Belize City to
San Pedro.
Once you arrive in San Pedro, one of our guides will meet you and take
you back to your resort.
