Belize
Custom Land & Sea Adventure Packages
Belize Bruce has spent many years living in Belize and touring the entire country,
as well as Guatemala and Mexico. He has been to most of the "tourist"
sites, as well as seen many things and places most outsiders will never get
to see or know about. He will tell you from firsthand experience what it's
really like, the best places to go, where to avoid and what to really expect
to get the most out of your adventure. He will personally guide you through
the country, getting you the best deals and meeting the coolest people while
avoiding the high costs and tourist traps of the travel guide books.
If you want to see the
"real" Belize, get on board with Belize Bruce!
As a group, you will be able to decide where you
want to go, what you want to see and Belize Bruce will set it up for
you and guide you through the wonderful country of Belize to your
destinations. This group decided itinerary is extremely flexible, so if as a
group it is decided to change course for some other exotic Mayan Ruin or
part of the country, Belize Bruce will make all the necessary
arrangements.
Upon receipt of your deposit, Belize Bruce
will send you a list of what to bring, places to go, and what to really
expect. Each destination/adventure will have an assigned "adventure points"
rating system, and you will be able to seek a set number of "adventure
points" each day for a truly unique Belize adventure not found anywhere else
for such a low packaged price!
Belize Bruce's Land &
Sea Adventure
| Dates: |
December 2-9, 2011 |
| Price: |
$1195. per person (airfare to and from Belize City not included) |
| Group Size: |
5-12 |
| Day 1 |
You arrive into Belize City and are met at the airport by Belize
Bruce. After you clear Immigration and Customs, we do a little site
seeing in Belize City before Belize
Bruce
takes you out to one of the Cayes where you get to
relax and get on "Belize Time!". During this time, the group plans what
they want to do for the rest of the trip and Belize
Bruce sets it all up and
makes all of the arrangements. |
|
| Day 2 |
Today we start off snorkeling
with the sharks and rays in Stingray Alley. Upon our return back to
the island, some may wish to just chill out by the ocean and dive
off the high board into the split while drinking Belikin's at the
Lazy Lizard, while others may choose some other optional activity
during this free time. Night time is spent dancing or hanging out at
local beach front restaurants. |
|
| Day 3 |
We leave the Cayes by boat and
then head inland to visit the Belize Zoo and see one of the ancient
Mayan caves, Actun St. Hermans. A hike through the jungle to a cenote at the
Blue Hole for a cool swim ends the
afternoon as the group then travels south, deep into the Jungles of southern
Belize. Arriving
in Punta Gorda around dark, the group checks into their hotel rooms, showers
and is ready for a night on the town. Of course, Belize
Bruce knows where the best party spots are! |
|
| Day 4 |
Today is a full day, visiting another Mayan Temple (two if we get up early
enough!), and visiting one of the larger Mayan villages. Then off to another
Mayan Cave where we go cave tubing and swim into the belly of the earth with just flashlights
through waterfalls until we
can go no farther in this exciting underground expedition. We then head back to Punta Gorda and another night on the town.
There may be some Garifuna drumming at a local restaurant and
Belize Bruce has already made arrangements to get the group front
row seats after eating a most delicious Belizean cuisine. There the secrets
of the Punta
Dance may be learned for the physically able! If there are any festivals
going on, Belize Bruce will know about them and make sure we're
there! |
|
| Day 5 |
Today we spend morning at the
Market and hop a bus
and then a boat to Placencia, one of the best beach towns in all of Belize. Drinking
local drinks and chilling out on the beech can only get better by eating
fresh seafood for dinner and watching a tropical sunset over the Mayan
Mountains in the west. And of course, there is always more Punta dancing!
|
|
| Day 6 |
Another morning traveling the scenic Hummingbird Highway leads us into
the western district of Belize bringing the group to San Ignacio in the Cayo
District. We travel to see more Mayan Temples of Xunnuntunich and
Cahal Pech and a butterfly museum before checking back into our
hotel. The night is spent at a local
restaurant
where world travelers hang out and share their Belize adventure stories. And
of course, all of you do have some way cool stories to share with the
others by now! |
|
| Day 7 |
Today is another action packed
day as we go visit Caracol, one of the largest (if not the largest)
of all the Mayan Ruins in Central America. Here we will witness the
greatness of the Mayan Empire. This is a grand way to bring closure
to Belize Bruce's Surf & Turf adventure. When we make
it back to the hotel, we'll have added even more stories to tell! |
|
| Day 8 |
After packing up, we head back to the airport, stopping at some scenic
spots for pictures along the way. We say our goodbyes, and slowly walk out
on the tarmac for the flight back to civilization, rethinking about all we
have seen and done in this short amount of time. We will have life long
memories from this past week (and tons of photos!) and chance to see Belize
with the personal guided help of Belize Bruce. |
