Depart for a day of Mayan historical adventure to see one of the finest Maya Ruins in Belize.
Xunantunich Mayan ruin, also known as the “Maiden of the Rock” is the second tallest Mayan ruin in Belize. The largest pyramid, El Castillo stands 130 feet high above the main plaza and offers an impressive panoramic view of the Cayo District, Guatemala, and the Mopan River. The site has been largely excavated and has a well-appointed educational museum.
Experience an authentic Belizean lunch in the immediate area of the ruins.
Now we make our way to Cave Tubing @ St. Herman's Cave. This is a combination of cave exploration and cave tubing to explore this incredible river cave system. Imagine the excitement as you drift downriver, your body tucked in an inflated inner tube, your fingers trailing in the crisp clear river and up head is the vine-draped opening of mysterious cave.

I went to start off by saying Drik our driver was amazing. He was so knowledgeable and nice & funny. He really made our trip. The Xunantunich maya ruins were such a sight to see. Our tour guide really was so passionate about them. He was also very friendly. Such a great experience.

We had a wonderful experience on our various get to know Belize tours and shuttle. The highlight was the Anderson lagoon bioluminescence tour - truly an otherworldly experience, we even got to jump in the lagoon and see the bioluminescence sparkling all over us! Every tour guides and driver and coordinator we had was amazing - Víctor , Edgar, Letticia, Greg, Meds (sorry if we’re spelling the name wrong!), Josie, Shane, and Vida. They all were responsible, flexible, extremely knowledgeable, and fun. It felt good knowing we were supporting a local, family-run (and woman owned) business. We also did the Cockscomb basin hike, Xuanituch tour and cave tubing. Highly recommend going with Get to Know Belize for all your Hopkins adventures!

What a beautiful way to spend Christmas Day! We enjoyed a lovely holiday guided experience to visit the Mayan ruins at Xunantunich. After climbing around at the site with an excellent guide, our guide Greg took us to a fantastic restaurant for lunch, and then off to Herman’s cave for tubing. Truly a magical day in every way. Recommend highly, and ask for Greg!
