    The tour was very nice. Our driver, Abner, was very friendly at all times, punctual and always available. We took a guided tour of the park where our guide, Omar, explained each place we visited in detail. We had enough time to see the entire park. Lunch was excellent and the staff was very attentive and helpful. We recommend taking this tour.

Nestled in lush hills near the Guatemalan border, San Ignacio is the heart of adventure in western Belize. Surrounded by ancient ruins, limestone caves, vibrant markets, and the meandering Macal River, this lively town is the perfect base for exploring jungle landscapes and Maya heritage.

A Glimpse into the Past

San Ignacio's roots stretch back to Maya civilization, echoed in the impressive ruins of Cahal Pech and Xunantunich nearby. Over time, the town has blended its rich indigenous history with influences from Mestizo, Creole, and Garifuna cultures, creating a welcoming, multicultural atmosphere.

When to Visit?

The dry season, from November to May, is generally the best time for touring the area, thanks to clear skies and lush scenery. If you don't mind less predictable showers, the wetter months bring blooming forests and fewer crowds.
