From start to finish the Maya Walk Tour staff made this experience one of a kind. The staff members were knowledgeable and passionate about not only the environment but the history. Maya Walk provided hotel pick up and drop off which made this excursion especially convenient. Francis was an amazing tour guide who looked after the group while sharing his knowledge and making us laugh. Another highlight was the meal provided by a local family — delicious and a true taste of Belize.
The Xunantunich ruins were beautiful. Our guide, Pedro, was quite knowledgeable, sharing Mayan history for each building and area. It was just the right amount! We decided to extend the adventure to include cave tubing. There was plenty of time for both and the tubing was fun and relaxing!

Our visit to Xunantunich was unforgettable, and a huge part of that was our amazing tour guide, Bern. He was incredibly knowledgeable about the history of the Mayan civilization and shared fascinating stories and cultural insights that made the ruins come alive. You could tell he has a real passion and a background for preserving and teaching Mayan culture. As we climbed the ruins, Bern made sure everyone felt safe and comfortable, giving clear guidance and watching out for the group every step of the way. His professionalism and attention to safety allowed us to fully enjoy the incredible views and experience. We were also lucky enough to have Bern as our guide for cave tubing, and once again, he was outstanding. He kept us safe throughout the adventure, pointing out wildlife like crocodiles and snakes while making sure we knew what to expect. He even guided us to an exciting cliff-jumping spot, making the experience both thrilling and safe. If you're visiting Belize and have the chance to tour with Bern, don't hesitate. His knowledge, professionalism, focus on safety, and friendly personality made both the Xunantunich ruins and cave tubing adventures experiences we'll never forget. We highly recommend him! If you'd like, I can also make it shorter for Google Reviews or more enthusiastic for Facebook or TripAdvisor.
