Xunantunich & The Belize Zoo

Experience the wonders of Belize’s history and wildlife on this captivating Combo Tour that combines cultural discovery with natural exploration. Begin your journey at the ancient Xunantunich Mayan Pyramid, one of Belize’s most iconic archaeological sites located near the western border with Guatemala. Cross the hand-cranked ferry over the Mopan River and explore the impressive plazas, temples, and the towering “El Castillo” pyramid, which rises 130 feet above the jungle canopy and offers panoramic views of the surrounding landscape. Learn about the fascinating Mayan civilization, their architecture, and their spiritual traditions from your knowledgeable guide.
After immersing yourself in Belize’s ancient past, continue your adventure with Rob’s Belize Cultural Tours as we visit the Belize Zoo, known as “The Best Little Zoo in the World.” Nestled within 29 acres of tropical savanna, the zoo is home to more than 150 native animals, including jaguars, tapirs, howler monkeys, toucans, and scarlet macaws—all rescued or born in captivity. This wildlife sanctuary provides a unique opportunity to observe Belize’s incredible biodiversity up close while supporting conservation and education efforts.
