Great tour with and an excellent guide. Peter was knowledgeable in the rich history of the Mayan culture. The ruins are well preserved. We went in a week day and it wasn’t busy at all. Lunch was a tradition belizean meal at a local restaurant and probably one of our best meals on the trip. Highly recommend this tour.
Thank you for sharing about your time with your time with St Leonard's and Peter. We are so glad you were able to enjoy the site largely on your own and learn about the world of the ancient Maya. We are so happy you also enjoyed your grub to cap off a wonderful day.
Rod was very knowledgeable. We started at 8am and with the early start there was almost no one there at Cahal Pech which made it very intimate and unlike Chichen Itza which felt more like a tourist trap in Mexico. This felt off the beaten path and hard to believe that it was just us there. Rod was an excellent host and I would recommend this tour. He also took us to a nice local restaurant after.
Thank you so much for sharing your experience and for choosing St Leonard’s for your adventure. There’s something truly special about exploring Cahal Pech in the quiet of the early morning, and we’re so glad Rod was able to create that intimate, meaningful atmosphere for you. Avoiding the crowds and feeling like you’ve discovered something hidden and authentic is exactly the kind of memory we hope our guests take home. Rod takes great pride in making history feel personal and unhurried, and we love that you felt so well cared for throughout the day. We’re honored to have been part of your Belize experience and hope we can welcome you back for another unforgettable journey
Rod (Rudolph) was an amazing guide, perfectly combining his experience as an educator and his passion for sharing the Mayan culture and his beautiful hometown. So knowledgeable and kind, I highly recommend Rod and his staff for any and all tours you want to do in the San Ignacio are

We had a wonderful guide (2/1/2025), who was able to give us interesting background, respond to all our questions, and make the trip just what we wanted. Cannot recommend this company and trip enough
Thank you for your kind words! At St. Leonard’s, we believe that every tour should be more than just a journey—it should be an unforgettable experience filled with history, connection, and adventure. Rod’s passion and amazing insights about all things Maya and love for sharing Belize’s rich culture and landscapes truly makes each trip special, and we’re thrilled he made your experience exactly what you wanted. To all future guests, if you’re looking for a guide who brings history to life and a tour that feels personal and meaningful, we can’t wait to welcome you!
Both sites were quite different in a good way Peche Cahal more compact but had some interesting passageways. Xuanantich was larger and had a larger central pyramid. Our guide, Jose, was incredibly knowledgeable and had a great personality. I would go on any tour he was guiding.
Thank you for taking time to write a 5 Star review. We really appreciate it!! We are so glad you had a great experience with St Leonard's and Jose.
We loved this combo tour! Go in the morning, when it's a bit cooler and less crowded, and a must is to wear comfortable walking/hiking shoes because I was immensely glad I packed good shoes, if only for this specific tour; I don't think my Teva strap sandals would've sufficed. It's a steep climb at both sites, and slippery from the moss, but worth making it to the top of these structures to feel like how the Maya royals felt surveying their land! The sites are beautiful, but mostly we want to praise our tour guide with San Ignacio Resort, Cruz!!!!! Absolutely lovely man who is so incredibly knowledgeable about everything at these sites. He told us he has over 20 years experience and it shows! He gave us indepth insights and information, and is genuinely passionate about the history and recovery efforts at these sites. Gave us information about surrounding areas during our drive, information about Flora/fauna of the area. We can not say enough how much we loved this tour guide. Ask for him when you book this tour or any other! You will have zero regrets!

We had a marvelous time. Our guide Rod was so knowledgeable, he took the time to help us understand not only the Mayan culture at the time, but the people of Belize. As well, we learned of the plant life. Then we had the most incredible lunch. A truly amazing day.
