Lamanai - Everything was great! We enjoyed the lunch provided, learning about the temples’ rich history. and seeing the family of howler monkeys. We had a splendid time. We enjoyed the ride on the speedboat.

This was great from start... - This was great from start to finish, Amir was an amazing guide. The other reviews are kidding about the mosquitos at the temple though; bring long sleeves and extra bug repellent

Best temple tour! - We had Brenda as our Captain she was amazing and answered all questions. She was super great pointing out animals for all of us on the river portion! I would use this company again. Robert who picked us up from the ferry terminal and brought is to the river was AMAZING. He even brought us to a gas station to grab some breakfast since we didn't eat due to catching the 6am ferry from San Pedro. He also stopped for fresh coconut water on the side of the road for me! The lunch at Lamanai was also spectacular!

A highlight of our trip - This was just an absolutely amazing trip, really the highlight of our trip to Belize. From the driver/tour guide Fab, who was fantastic at giving us more details about Belize City and the history, to our boat captain and tour guide Brenda, it was a great day. She's not just a tour guide but has actually worked the archeological sites and gave great insight to the temples and Mayan history. Only thing-bring bug spray. And maybe some layers for the river cruise. It was awesome, btw, seeing the crocodiles and different birds, the iguanas and the Mennonites who live and work along the river.

Long day - It was a long car ride to the boat meet point. Then it takes over an hour to get there. I would definitely do it again, but it was a lot. The tour guide was amazing.

Lamanai Temples from San Pedro - The guide Ignacio was very good. One and a half hour taxi ride to Belize City from San Pedro then one hour drive to catch the boat and one hour boat ride to the ruins takes a lot out of you by the time you get to the ruins.
