Discover two of Belize’s most fascinating Maya sites in one unforgettable day. This full-day tour takes you from your San Ignacio hotel to both Xunantunich and Cahal Pech, combining rich history, scenic views, and cultural insight.
Start your adventure with a short drive to Xunantunich, where you’ll cross the river by a hand-cranked ferry before exploring the impressive hilltop city. Your guide will lead you through plazas and temples, including El Castillo, one of the tallest structures in Belize, offering panoramic views across the jungle and into Guatemala.
Next, visit Cahal Pech, one of the oldest Maya sites in Belize, located right above San Ignacio. Wander through its compact plazas, royal residences, and courtyards while learning about its role as an elite Maya home.
Enjoy a delicious included lunch during the day before returning to your hotel.
