Damian took my son and I on a private Barton Creek kayak tour and we are so glad that he was our tour guide! He is a genuine character, very knowledgeable but also just fun to hang out with. We ate lunch together at Mike’s restaurant afterwards and just talked about what it’s like to live in Belize. We learned so much from him and very grateful for the wonderful experience.
So very glad we did this. The guide was incredibly knowledgeable and really made the tour what it was—a tremendously rewarding experience. Highly recommended.
Amazing tour! really great tour with Damien, super wonderful experience, no need to be experts in canoeing. The cave is stunning and full of Maja history! Really recommend it to anyone!
