Experience two of Belize’s most captivating attractions in one incredible adventure! This Combo Tour takes you deep into the heart of the Cayo District, where ancient history and natural wonder come together. Begin your journey at Xunantunich, one of Belize’s most impressive Mayan archaeological sites, located just a short distance from the Guatemalan border. Cross the hand-cranked ferry over the Mopan River and explore the site’s towering structures, including the awe-inspiring El Castillo pyramid, which rises 130 feet above the jungle canopy. Enjoy breathtaking panoramic views while learning about the rich culture, architecture, and traditions of the ancient Maya civilization.
 

After exploring Xunantunich, continue to the tranquil Barton Creek Cave Reserve, a stunning natural attraction accessible by canoe. As you paddle gently through the crystal-clear waters, your guide will illuminate the fascinating rock formations, ancient pottery, and ceremonial artifacts left behind by the Maya. The cave’s quiet, cathedral-like chambers and flowing river offer a serene yet mysterious glimpse into Belize’s geological and cultural past.
