Small Mayan ruins site - There is not a lot there, but it is close to Belize City. You are able to get onto the temples really get a feel for the history

Great experience with Paul at Altun Ha - We had such a great time traveling with Paul as our private guide. Paul was so curtious and knowledgable of local history and he took the time to show us around and explain all sorts of fun facts to my family. He was an excellent driver (and I tend to be very critical) and everyone in my family felt safe. We would definitely recommend him as a tour guide.

Belize Cruise Trips - You HAVE to book with Belize cruise trips anytime you are visiting. We went on a carnival cruise line and our separate excursion was so seamless and fun. Paul was our guide, and he truly felt like family by the end of the day. He was very knowledgeable and charismatic! From the Mayan Ruins to a home cooked meal in his neighborhood, Paul was amazing!!! 10/10 would visit this lovely country again.

Altun Ha with Paul - Paul is an outstanding tour guide. I tour and travel a lot and I treasure a guide that gives history, current events, and humor in what can be a mundane drive to and from a location(s). We learned many things about Belize, it's people, and it's culture. Paul is very professional and passionate about Belize and what it has to offer. We had old and young and Paul included everyone in the festivities and accommodated our needs, wants , and asks. If you want an outstanding guide who you would be comfortable and proud to call "friend," please request Paul for any of your Belizian tours!

Lovely complex - Very clean and fairly easy access. Easy to explore independently but admittedly a guide makes it better. Climbing the structures is allowed.
