Jungle Adventure Tours in Belize to Add to Your Bucket List

Published on July 23, 2018

Belize is a small country with an incredibly diverse landscape. Thick jungle and pristine rainforests cover much of the mainland, home to an incredible array of birds, plants, and animals. National parks, wildlife refuges, and animal sanctuaries in southern Belize allow nature to thrive, giving visitors the chance to explore a living corner of Paradise.

If you are coming to Belize, here are some jungle adventure tours you should add to your bucket list:

ATV Tour

Although Belize is an incredibly beautiful country, the lush rainforests make it hard to access many areas. One of the best ways to see nature in Belize at its finest is with an ATV tour.

Monkey River

Lying on the southeastern coast of Belize, the Monkey River is a pristine watercourse. Its banks teem with exotic plants and wildlife, including large troops of black howler monkeys. A boat safari up the Monkey River is a great way to learn more about the flora and fauna of Belize as well as visit local villages.

Bird Watching

With more than 400 species recorded, Belize is one of the best places in the world to enjoy bird watching. English-speaking local guides will take you to some of the best spots in southern Belize to see birds, including enormous Jabiru storks, tiny hummingbirds, and blue herons.

Cave Tubing

No visit to Belize is complete without participating in some cave tubing. Using an inflatable inner tube or small canoe, participants will get the chance to navigate underground rivers and marvel at hidden subterranean passageways that were once used by ancient Maya priests to conduct religious rituals.

Guided Nature Hikes

Southern Belize is home to two vast national reserves, the perfect place to learn more about wildlife in the country. Guided tours include a detailed natural history of the area as well as a stop at a magnificent waterfall, the perfect place to cool off on a hot day.

The Davis Falls Inn in southeastern Belize is the perfect place to stay enjoying jungle adventure tours. This charming guest house is owned and operated by a local Belizean family who offers up plenty of old-fashioned hospitality and delicious homecooked meals for travelers.
