5.00Albert was an excellent tour guide. Fortunately, my husband and I were the only people who signed up for this day, and we had a private tour. Albert was knowledgeable about the history of Belize, particularly regarding Altun Ha. As we drove to our destination, he explained the surroundings (plants, shopping centers, communities past and present). I recommend this tour and our tour guide, Albert.

5.00Our guide, Mark, was absolutely phenomenal. He shared lots of historical information about the town as we drove through. He took us through The ruins and shared so much information, he’s a wealth of knowledge! On the way back, at our request, we stopped at a local restaurant and had delicious local food (not included the trip price) and we were back in plenty of time to board our ship.

5.00Jeff was knowledgeable and hilarious. We had a great time at the ruins, he let us go through the museum at our pace, then gave us a great overview of the site before letting us explore as much as we'd like. Full of facts the whole ride (there and back). He didn't have any issue stopping to get snacks at a local shop and letting the kids eat in the van. Some review for Belize tours had complaints about broken down vans and adding other groups to private tours, we did not have an issue with either. The van wasn't new, but it was clean and taken car of. We left promptly after meeting up outside the terminal.
