Belize Travel Guides (Updated September 2026)

I had an AMAZING time with Salt Life Tours! 🌊🤿 Elvis and Keys were absolutely the best. They were so patient with me because I’m a pool swimmer, NOT an ocean swimmer 😂😂. They made me feel comfortable, kept me informed, and made the whole experience such a vibe!By about the second jump in, I was feeling like a PRO! 😂🙌🏽 The experience was so much fun, and I’m already looking forward to coming back and doing it all over again.If you’re thinking about booking with Salt Life Tours, DO IT! You won’t regret it. Thank you, Elvis and Keys, for making this such an unforgettable experience! 💙🌊

Absolutely amazing experience with Captain Elvis and George! Definitely the best service in Belize and a once in a lifetime experience. You will be well taken care of, have a great time and also make new friends on your trip! Highly recommend

Captain Brian and Victor were excellent tour guides! They took great care to make sure the experience was memorable. They both grew up in the waters around Caye Caulker and their knowledge showed that! They were professional but very friendly and welcoming. We fed tarpon, frigates and snorkeled with nurse sharks, Hol Chan and a shipwreck. It was the highlight of our trip to Belize. I definitely feel that we got MORE than our money's worth!

They were very fun yet professional. They brought us to amazing areas to explore all sorts of ocean life

NAZ was an amazing tour guide. We had a lot of fun and his knowledge was second to none. Everyone was friendly at lunch and is worth the trip.

The cave tubing tour was Naz was a lot of fun! He had so much knowledge about Belize so we learned alot of history on the way to the caves as well. We even had opporunities to explore deeper in the caves (at that point we were tired lol). Naz as a guide provided a fun experience, joked with us, and made us feel welcomed. 10/10 recommend.

I had a fantastic time with them. There level and care and experience. No rush their priorities were our safety and then having a good time. They picked us open at the Ft. George and dropped us off. By the end of the day they felt like friends

We had the best time on the last leg of our trip ending in Belize City. We booked a tour through Explore More w/VIV. Half of us went tubing & the other half went kayaking. We had a very instructional hike through the jungle & really enjoyed the sites and history kayaking through the caves. If you are not into rowing against the current at times & maneuvering while paddling most of the time, I would suggest tubing. We had a delicious lunch after & it was very much worth the cost! Our instructors were fantastic!

The adventure was quite exhausting. It required quite a bit of trekking through the rain forest. By the end of the day, I was completely spent. The guides were amazing, friendly and extremely competent. The ziplining itself was thrilling. I would do it again for sure, but I would recommend you be somewhat fit due to the heat and the hiking.

Andreas and Victor were knowledgeable and hospitable guides. They shared interesting historical and cultural tidbits while on the tour. They provided water twice along the way. Very accommodating of our kids. We felt very safe and saw amazing views along the way. Well worth the money for an experience of a lifetime.

Beautiful hike where we saw plants we’d never seen before. Waterfall repelling was definitely the hardest part of the adventure with the slick rocks but this 45 yr old mom and my teen boys (14 and 18) made it. I’d say younger than 14 may have issues standing back up after falling with the water pounding you. Ziplining was great- the guides do all the clipping in and out for you and took the time to show you safety protocols so we always felt safe. Cool to hear howler monkeys in the distance

Tour was fabulous! The tour guide, Jose, was very knowledgeable of the area and gave us a thorough history of Belize on the way there and back (1.5 hours each way). They had the zip lining down to a science. You moved through the jungle quickly and I felt like each technician was knowledgeable and safety conscious. Our guide throughout the hiking and tubing was a wealth of information about the vegetation and cave, also. The lunch was relaxing and delicious.

My wife and I loved the Zipline and waterfall repelling tour! The guides were awesome - very friendly, professional and knowledgeable (bonus - learned about different birds, animals, and fauna). We even saw howler monkeys! Bocawina is a really beautiful rainforest, so the scenery was great! Make sure to bring LOTS of bug spray though and good shoes for hiking and getting wet. The Zipline was awesome - you get to ride 9 different lines with the longest being over 1300 feet. The rides take you through the middle of the trees - beautiful and fast! This was just a great day overall!!

Our day with Salt Life was absolutely perfect, right from 8:30 am all the way to 3 pm; not a second was wasted. Captain Phillip and his trusty partner Alexia showed us around every hotspot in the ocean, getting us up close and personal with rays, sharks, fish, and even manatees. This was a dream excursion and the stories and commentary throughout also provided the best comedy show. Beyond Captain Phillip’s jokes, he was also an extravagantly generous guide, allowing us to borrow his mask when struggling. When we saw not one, not two, but THREE manatees, we were alerted with a resounding BOMBOCLAT, rounding out the whole experience! To summarize, this experience was UNBELIZEABLE with the help of Captain Philip (Juan Carlos) and Alexia (Lupita)—we will be back again in no time.

So much fun. Rick and Philip are amazing and really added to the experience. 100% would recommend to anyone looking for a fun snorkeling adventure.

I've done around 50 shore excursions over the last 25 years, and this one easily lands in my top three of all time.To make things interesting, the weather wasn't cooperating, and the ship's tenders got us to shore about 50 minutes late. I was worried we'd miss the tour, but they waited for us... and it turns out there were six other delayed passengers too. That level of customer service set the tone right away.Finding them at the port was incredibly easy. They were standing right in the middle with a big sign, practically impossible to miss. If you've ever done independent excursions before, you know that isn't always the case. Sometimes you're playing a real-life game of "Where's Waldo?" while checking text messages and hoping you're in the right spot. Not here.I'll admit, I was a little nervous about spending 90 minutes floating through a cave on an inner tube. The thought of being underground for that long sounded a bit intimidating. Thanks to our guide, that nervousness lasted maybe three minutes. The remaining 87 minutes were nothing but fun. The cave itself was incredible, and the small-group atmosphere made it feel like a private tour with lots of one-on-one interaction.After the tubing adventure, they provided a nice lunch at no extra cost, which was a great touch.One thing to know: if you're visiting this port and want to do something truly memorable, expect about an hour drive in a van. The ride was perfectly fine, although the van may have been auditioning for a role as a bouncing castle and could probably use some new shocks.Most importantly, every concern I had about booking with an independent operator instead of a cruise-line excursion was completely debunked. The organization, communication, service, and experience were all outstanding.I would absolutely book with this company again and would be thrilled to get Abner (sp?) as our driver and guide. He did a fantastic job and was a huge part of what made this excursion so memorable.Bottom line: If you're on the fence about this excursion, stop thinking and book it. It was one of the best shore excursions I've ever done. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
