Get ready for an exciting adventure into the heart of Belize’s wildlife and culture.
Your journey begins as you are picked up at the port and welcomed by your knowledgeable local guide. As you travel through the city and into the countryside, your guide will share fascinating stories about the people of Belize, their culture, and the rich history that has shaped this vibrant country. Along the way, you’ll also pass through lush landscapes where you can catch glimpses of Belize’s unique ecosystems and natural beauty.
Soon you’ll arrive at the Baboon Sanctuary, a protected area dedicated to the conservation of Belize’s famous black howler monkeys. Here, your guide will explain the inspiring story behind the sanctuary and how local communities worked together to protect these incredible animals and earn their trust.
During your visit, you’ll walk through the sanctuary as the guide calls the monkeys, often bringing them surprisingly close. Hearing their powerful howls echo through the jungle and seeing them up close in their natural habitat is an unforgettable experience. You’ll have plenty of opportunities to take photos and enjoy watching these fascinating creatures as they move through the trees.
After spending time with the monkeys and learning about the sanctuary’s conservation efforts, you’ll relax on the return journey back to Belize City, arriving comfortably at the port with plenty of time before your ship’s departure.
You will meet your local guide at the designated meeting point specified in your e-tickets, along with all the important instructions and information.
