We have an adventure shore excursion in Belize just waiting for you. All transportation plus complimentary lunch is provided. Please note, this Belize Jeep, Wildlife Sanctuary, and Tropical Education Center Excursion is 5.5 hours and leaves directly from your Belize cruise ship pier, so there are no lines and no hassle, just loads of fun! Be sure to bring your camera!
This fun Belize Shore Excursion begins when you meet with your jeep excursion guide just outside your Belize cruise ship pier. Be shown your comfortable, and air-conditioned transportation and you're off for a scenic, 40-minute ride to the Belize Wildlife Sanctuary, the famous Belize Zoo, and Tropical Education Center.
At the Belize Zoo, you will enjoy a 1.5-hour guided walk-about where you will see a wide variety of wildlife indigenous to Belize. In fact, under strict supervision, you can get quite close to many of the animals, but always under the watchful eye of a handler. Come and see Lucky Boy, the black jaguar that made world news in 2011. You will be introduced to Junior Buddy, a jaguar who was abandoned by his mother at two days and has been raised at the sanctuary ever since. You'll also see a wide range of other animals such as ocelots, margays, howler monkeys, kinkajous, tapirs, toucans, jabirus, scarlet macaws, and harpy eagles. The entrance fee of the Belize Zoo Wildlife Sanctuary is included; the fee along with any shopping you may do at the gift shop goes towards wildlife preservation.
Then it will be time to head off for the Jeep Safari Excursion base camp. The ride to the camp is short, approximately 15 minutes, and, once you're there you will be shown to your stick shift Jeep. If you need one of the two automatic Jeeps, please indicate that on your booking (comment box); the automatic Jeeps are on a first come first serve basis. The Jeeps are shared with other participants and can comfortably sit up to 4 adults and one small child. Driving duties may be switched off part-way through the excursion. For those who would like the Jeep just to themselves, there is the VIP / Private Jeep option - the empty spaces must be purchased at an adult rate (the private Jeep option requires booking 4 participants per Jeep, please indicate the private option in the comment box provided in the booking process).
Then buckle up and take off, following your English-speaking jeep excursion guide, across varied terrains such as dirt roads, wetlands, and muddy jungle trails. Do be prepared to get dirty, but that's part of the fun. Make sure to keep an eye out for tropical birds and lush, exotic, foliage. You will get to see the beauty that is Belize before tourism on this fun ride. The natural beauty is breathtaking!
You will enjoy about 2 hours of Jeep riding fun that will also include some great photo stops along the way. You will even have a chance to see hidden caves tucked away in the rainforest. Follow your Belize jeep excursion guide into open and unique Mayan caves and see the beauty created by both nature and ancient culture. Then take a dip and wash off the dirt, if you'd like, in the hidden tropical river located on private property.
After this portion of your adventure Shore Excursion in Belize, you will be offered a complimentary Belizean lunch, typically chicken with rice and beans accompanied by potato salad, cold water, and soft drinks are offered too. There will be a cash bar if you'd like to purchase other beverages.
Once you've eaten and rested it will be time to hop onboard the transportation and you will be returned to your Belize cruise ship pier.
