Snorkeling Hol Chan Marine Reserve & Caye Caulker: 7 stops
Snorkeling Hol Chan Marine Reserve & Caye Caulker: 7 stops★★★★★★★★★★ 4.81 (1,045)6h 30mA full-day snorkeling tour from Caye Caulker visits seven marine sites across Hol Chan Marine Reserve and Shark Ray Alley, with a guide, all entry fees, lunch and snorkel gear included.

Ziplining Belize: Mayan Temple, Cave Tubing & Jungle
Ziplining Belize: Mayan Temple, Cave Tubing & Jungle★★★★★★★★★★ 4.89 (595)8hA full-day activity in Belize combining exploration of Altun Ha Mayan temple, cave tubing through jungle river systems, and zipline descent over the canopy.

Pickup from your Belize City hotel or island arrival port is included; groups stay under 10 people; children from age 8 are welcome.Is it for me?You're doing the activity yourself — hiking, tubing and ziplining — not watching it happen, so this suits anyone who wants to move through the jungle and the caves under their own power rather than observe from a vehicle or a boat. The small group size means the guide can answer questions and adjust the pace, which makes it work for families with kids from 8 up and for mixed fitness levels.Free cancellationTravelers' pickfromUS$ 187View ›
