Pacote Privado Caracol | Descubra o mundo dos antigos maias
Descrição
Bem-vindo à cidade perdida! Um lugar muito, muito longe de casa. Caracol Fica no coração da floresta tropical de Chiquibul. É conhecida por ser uma das maiores cidades maias de Belize. Dominando o centro desta importante comunidade está a enorme estrutura conhecida como Caana, “Sky Place”. Este imenso complexo de palácios e templos permanece até hoje a mais alta construção feita pelo homem em Belize. Você está pronto para um passeio acidentado? Junte-se a nós enquanto viajamos profundamente na densa floresta verde de Belize. Partimos para uma viagem de três horas até uma das joias mais prestigiadas de Belize. Para cima e para baixo, de um lado para o outro enquanto subimos a estrada de terra. Olhar pela janela e testemunhar como a floresta de folhas largas transita para uma floresta de pinheiros e depois volta para a floresta de folhas largas é sedutor. Isso é bastante surpreendente, pois ambos possuem ambientes diferentes e diferentes espécies de vida selvagem. “Vamos, Vamonos!” diz Dora La Exploradora, enquanto Belize espera por você.

Caverna do Rio Frio
Localizado na floresta verde profunda é um site chamado Caracol. Este local foi encontrado em 1938 pela caçadora de mogno, Rosa Mai. Naquele ano, A.H Anderson visitou o local e o nomeou "Caracol", que significa "Concha de Caracol". Ele está localizado na borda ocidental das Montanhas Maya, que se encontra dentro da Reserva Florestal de Chiquibul. Este local fica em um planalto de 500 metros acima do nível do mar. Uma pesquisa em Caracol mostrou que esta grande cidade tinha uma população de cerca de 100.000 habitantes. Grandes escavações e pesquisas foram realizadas, revelando assim um núcleo central maciço e um denso assentamento contínuo que se estende por um raio de 8 quilômetros. A metrópole é a área com mercados rebentando, passando por florestas, oficinas de artesanato e agricultura extensiva. Os habitantes contavam com um sistema interdependente de redes sociais e econômicas para manter sua vitalidade. Líderes visionários, artistas, engenheiros, agricultores, guerreiros e aldeões trabalharam juntos para criar uma comunidade vibrante. As pessoas que viveram em sua cidade deixaram uma impressão duradoura na paisagem física e cultural que hoje chamamos de "Caracol".

If you book a tour through this company ask for Joe (although I accidentally called him Manny, which made him laugh) Joe was so knowledgeable and so much fun. We learned a lot and laughed a lot. His love for his Mayan culture and heritage is evident when he speaks. His knowledge of the animals, birds and plant life is incredibly impressive. The lunch he provided during both tours was delicious. Thank you Joe!
Thanks so much for your wonderful review! We’re really glad to hear this was the highlight of your trip. Joe will be happy to know you enjoyed his knowledge, humor, and passion for the culture (and he’ll definitely get a laugh about the “Manny” moment!). We’re also happy you enjoyed the lunch, our cook will be glad to hear you loved it. We truly appreciate your recommendation and would be happy to welcome you back whenever you return to Belize!
Joe was an amazing and extremely knowledgeable guide! He taught us so much about the Mayan culture, both past and present! Taking the private tour allowed us to set our own pace and spend time enjoying all the sites. I highly recommend taking this private tour!
It was a great experience. For many years I wanted to go but the bad roads prevented me to go. The road is now great. Oure travel guide was very good and had a great amount of knowledge of the ruins but also about the lifestyle of the Maya population. Highly recommandedGreat
Our tour guide Agusto was wonderful. Our tour was adjusted to me our needs. He was knowledgeable and very helpful
Damien was a wonderful guide. He showed us all around Caracol Ruins and gave us history of the Mayans and the jungle. He set up a nice lunch with the best food we had our entire 8 days in Belize. Then he took us to the cave. We really had the best time and enjoyed the ride to and from Caracol. I definitely recommend doing this tour. Thank you Damien for a memory we will never forget!
What an experience! Our tour guide was Damien, owner and operator of Classic Maya Adventure Tours. He comes from the Mayan culture and local community and is full of historical knowledge and pride for all things Belize. We were a group of three - parents and a 10-y-o - and he made history come alive throughout the entire tour. I cannot recommend this tour enough, and can't wait to come back to Belize and do more tours with Classic Maya (and Damien!).
Damian was an amazing guide. His encyclopaedic knowledge of not only Mayan history and architecture but also the flora and fauna of the jungle made the trip much more than expected. Friendly, funny, professional. Damian was also an excellent driver along some challenging terrain. We felt lucky to have him as our guide
Damian is an outstanding experienced and knowledgeable tour guide. I recommend his private tour for the customized experience you just can't get any other way. It is well worth it. The entire day was tailored to our desires and physical abilities to get the absolute most out of our time. Damian made the trip educational and entertaining with personal touches you won't get without a local guide. I highly recommend this tour!
I can't say enough great things about this tour and the tour company. It is a family owned/run business focused on intimate tours which was right up our alley. The family is of Mayan decent and they have lived in the area for years. Wilton is front of office and handles all of the communication. He is on top of all the details and responds quickly to all questions. Initially we had booked the Xuanantunich tour but due to high water levels on the river we had to switch to the Caracol package and in the end we are thrilled that happened. It is a little bit longer of a drive (on a dirt and bumpy road) from the San Ignacio area, but well worth the effort. Wilton was very helpful in explaining all the details and making sure the switch worked for us. His father Damian was our tour guide. He was kind, extremely knowledgeable and a fun person to spend the day with. I felt like we were on a private tour the entire day. There was only one other couple in the Rio Frio Caves and 4 other small groups at Caracol. Both locations have rich Mayan history and it was fun to learn all about it from Damian (who never seemed to tire of our endles questions). At the end of our Caracol tour Damain set up a lovely picnic with a delicious feast of food his wife had prepared. You will not be disappointed if you book with this company.
Any experience visiting a Maya site is special, but having the right guide makes all the difference. Darwin was knowledgable, professional, kind and charismatic. What more can you ask for? Despite heavy rains prior and tough road conditions, Darwin got us safely to our destinations with a smile on our face the whole way. We had a day we will NEVER forget!
