I will start with saying the Altun Ha temples are worth a visit. Visited off a cruise ship. However, my family of 5 paid $425 + $50 entrance fees for what boils down to a taxi ride and 5-10 min verbal introduction to the temples. Meeting was fine. The drive out/back about an hour. The driver shared a lot about Belize. All good. I missed the tour fine print and then had to pay $10 USD per person for entry ($50 USD). Went downhill from there. Walking in I was thinking "well, what the heck did I pay $425USD for if entry isn't even covered." Then I realized most of the groups were large cruise ship tours...some were small groups with private guides, OK, paying for the personal tour guide... Nope. The Driver / "tour guide" walked us in. Talked for like 5-10 minutes max, said he had to leave to do "paperwork." We then wandered aimlessly taking some great photos...but not really understanding what was what. In fact, some OTHER private tour guides gave us some information and took pictures of us an a family. In the end, I wonder how much a taxi would have been. Or just a cruise excursion, which was A BIT more money per person, but I think included more, and maybe food. For comparison, we got a private guide through Tripadvisor in Cozumel; we saw 2-3 sites, all site fees included, had lunch, and snorkeled...all for about the same amount of money. It was great and worth it. Bottom line: recommend looking at OTHER OPTIONS to see the site!!
Thanks for your review. We appreciate the concerns that you share, as they help us to make our service even better. We are always hopeful that our guests check the details of the tour they purchase with us before booking, so as not to be surprised by the service they receive. The entrance fees and lunch are not included, as clearly stated on the tickets and booking information for this tour. These are not hidden fees. We also mention in the booking that we make provisions to stop at a local restaurant for those guests who may want to purchase lunch after the tour. A guided tour of the Mayan site is included, and not being afforded this part of the tour is unacceptable to us. For the tour guide not to complete this very important part of the tour is regrettable. This is not who we are and what we represent. On behalf of our company, we apologize and will ensure there will never again be a recurrence of this issue. Despite these discrepancies, we are pleased to know that you still enjoyed your private tour to the Altun Ha Mayan site. Thanks once again for visiting our beautiful country, Belize.
Our tour guide Albert was very friendly and knowledgeable about the unique history of Belize!! Really amazing site to see.
Our tour guide Albert Alvarez was absolutely amazing and so knowledgeable!!! Best excursion ever!!!!

This trip was very good I enjoyed a private quiet visit to the site. Of course comfortable shoes a must and hydrate, our driver was very patient and knowledgeable, he brought the story telling to life.
We are pleased to know that you had a wonderful time doing the Altun Ha Mayan site tour with us. We do offer bottled water on the tour, as we know how warm it can get on-site. Thanks for taking the time to share. We are grateful
Nice informative trip, no issues bring a fmt(fat man towel)!! The stairs are brutal but nice trip all together hopefully have a good driver....smh
It's the peak of the dry season this time of year, hence the Mayan site could be warmer than usual. The climb to the top of the temples could be a little challenging, but it's worth the hike. The view from on top is breathtaking. We are happy for your commentary. Don't be a stranger, there is so much more great adventure you can do in Belize
We had a fantastic afternoon visiting Altun Ha. Our guide was very flexible (we needed to change our start time), had a great relaxed demeanor, and was extremely knowledgeable about Altun Ha and the surrounding countryside. Would highly recommend!
Thanks for your vote of confidence and your recommendation. We are highly appreciative. We are very flexible with our guests, where possible, to ensure they have the best experience doing our tours. We look forward to your next visit to enjoy more of the great adventure Belize has to offer.
The tour guide was extremely friendly and knowledgeable! It was a pleasure to have the conversation opportunity to share this experience with his guidance. The view at Altun Ha was amazing, a wonderful experience.
It was our pleasure to have been a part of your Belize experience. Thanks for sharing
Albert 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.
We try to cover all the bases as we understand that our guests would like to know as much of our jewel, Belize, as possible. For the most part, our tours are private, even though we get a few small groups doing it together. Thanks for your vote of confidence and for sharing your Belize experience. We are grateful.
Our 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.
We only work with the most reliable and experienced tour guides in the tourism industry. Once requested, we don't have any problem stopping to allow the purchase of Belizean cuisine at the local restaurant after the tour. Thanks for your review. We look forward to your next visit
