Awesome Tour Company in San Ignacio!

My wife and I recently spent a few days in San Ignacio which we loved. Our hosts at Villa Cayo recommended Explore Inland Tours to us and we couldn't have been happier with the outcome. We did trips to Tikal in Guatemala and a trip to the ATM caves and thoroughly enjoyed both trips. From the time we were picked up from our accommodation each morning to the time we were dropped off each evening, the whole operation was seamless. Do Tikal Temples tour from Belize For our trip to Tikal Sergio senior drove us to the Belize border and made sure we passed through the border without any fuss and joined our driver on the Guatemala side of the border. We were then well looked after during our time in Guatemala (excellent and knowledgeable guide at Tikal, commentary on the way and a nice lunch on the way back). Sergio was waiting for us when we got back to the border and dropped us back at the door of our accommodation. The driver and guide we had for our trip to ...

Luis is not only a great guide, but a true teacher. On the way to the cave, he pointed out different flora and fauna (some he even joked were good to know in case we were on "Naked and Afraid"), taking the time to stop and explain what it was and why it was important. (Did you know that an important ingredient in oral contraceptives comes from a plant found in the forests of Belize? Yeah, me neither.) We took our time in the cave, Luis stopping often to explain different, out of sight, artifacts (ex: the stele that you can see just the tips of from the cave floor, and the story about blood letting that went along with them) that, in some cases, other groups rushed past. His explanations were less li...
