Belize Tours in February 2026

The itinerary was very varied taking in Mayan temples, bird watching, jungle hiking, snorkelling, beaches, canoeing, and more. The hotels aren’t luxurious but have character and are in fabulous locations. Very lucky with our guide Wilfred. Knowledgeable and organised with a sense of humour. Great trip to discover Belize

Joined a group of six, delightful Brits and our extremely capable, watchful and kind guide Jorge for our adventure in Belize. Culturally this was a tour that gave us daily opportunities to enjoy and experience Belizian and Guatamalean history, Mayan civilization , natural beauty and current social/political/environmental environments. Our trip was 1/19-1/30. Just about perfect amount of time to explore with 3 home bases that lent well to the itinerary and our comfort. As a fit 69 and 78 year old couple we found the daily pace comfortable. Though speaking of comfort know that the daily transportation, across pot hole filled roads, is a 10 passenger van which is ok if you are slight of build but if you are over weight or taller than 5' 9" you will not be comfortable on the 2 to 3 hour drives. Climate Change - its here and its real both in the USA and Belize. Our trip was 1/19-1/30/25 and we had a lot of rain. Ones experience is best if you have packed for that wet weather and we did. Disappointed with lack of waste water treatment facilities at Caye Caulker. Several times during our visit we heard local references to the use of the Caribbean as one huge toilet. Snorkeling revealed strain on the coral. Due to flooding at Birds Eye View Lodge was closed to our group and instead we had accommodations at the Black Orchid which was lovely. Cahal Pech Location atop a hill overlooking San Ignacio makes for fantastic views. Walks to town never happened due to all day downpour on our free day.

My husband and I highly recommend Charlie the Traveler. We decided to honeymoon in Belize and we booked our 10 day trip through Tour Radar. Charlie called me after we booked and we talked for about 30 minutes about Belize and all the things to do. Evelyn (with Charlie the Traveler) sent us our itinerary 2 weeks before our trip and it was jam packed with adventures: cave tubing, cave canoeing, snorkeling, visiting the Mayan ruins including a massive cave adventure, the zoo, and more. Our tour guide in country, Valentin, was incredibly knowledgeable, punctual, professional, and funny. We felt very safe and taken care of. Evelyn remained available if we needed anything during the trip. We would use Charlie the Traveler again for another trip!

I have been on many Explore trips and this trip is one of the very best. It has something for everyone- Mayan ruins, Wildlife in abundance, snorkelling and canoeing. The food on offer in Belize is delicious ( as are the cocktails) . Tarique our tour leader was fantastic- well organised, knowledgeable , caring and tremendous fun. I would thoroughly recommend this trip.

This was an extremely well organised tour with a varied itinerary. The accommodation was much better than expected especially those hotels located by the beach. Tarique the Guide was knowledgeable, organised and great fun. I thoroughly recommend this holiday.

Explore are a great company which is why we’ve used them almost every year since 2012. Tarique the tour leader on this Belize trip was actually amazing- friendly, helpful, knowledgeable and an all round cool guy who made the trip for everyone on the tour. He went out of his way to make sure the annoying vegan (me)… had something decent to eat wherever we went - which was hugely appreciated. The mix of temples, jungle, water adventures, wildlife and snorkelling were so good in this country so I highly recommend this tour!
