    This tour includes a visit to two of the most incredible attractions in Belize, the ruins of the ancient Maya city of Xunantunich and the sapphire waters of the Inland Blue Hole. Xunantunich Maya Ruins One of the largest ancient Maya cities ever built, Xunantunich is located approximately 70 miles (110 km) west of Belize City. Constructed on a ridge overlooking the Mopan River, Xunantunich was once home to nearly 100,000 people. The original name of the site is unknown, but its modern name derives from a Maya term that means “Stone Woman.” First rediscovered in 1892, many visitors to the site reported seeing a ghostly woman who was reported to haunt the structure known as “El Castillo” (The Castle). Still the second-largest manmade structure in the country, El Castillo measures 130 feet (40 meters) tall. Built as a temple pyramid, El Castillo is located in the exact center of the town. Today, Xunantunich is located approximately one mile from the Guatemalan border. During its heyday during the Classic Period of the Maya civilization (around 600-700 AD), Xunanutinch competed with nearby cities, including Naranjo, Caracol, and Tikal (which lies just a few miles over the border in Guatemala). The Inland Blue Hole Not to be confused with the Blue Hole that lies on the offshore reef, the Inland Blue Hole is located in the St. Herman’s Blue Hole National Park near the capital of Belize, Belmopan. First designated a national park in 1986, St. Herman’s is managed by the Belize Audobon Society as it sits in the middle of one of the most ecologically diverse areas of the country. Over 200 species of birds have been recorded in the area, including the red-legged honeycreeper and the piratic flycatcher. There is also a wide selection of wildlife in the park, including three big cat species.

Full day adventure from Placencia to Xunantunich to Jaguar Paw cave tubing back to Placencia. Ricky was an excellent guide; very personable, knowledgeable and friendly. We had 4 adults, 4 kids in a private van with water, lunch, AC, admission fees, and guide inclusive. A long day with lots of driving but doable. Doing it over, I'd have stayed 1-2 nights near Xunantunich and spent more time touring the ruins and less time driving. Untame was easy to work with, communication was great, payment was easy and secure and all in all a really enjoyable experience.

Our guide Ricky was enthusiastic, knowledgeable, and a skilled van driver. Xunantunich surpasses description. Lunch in San Ignacio was delectable, and the inland blue home was lovely too.
