The tour guide, Allen Dawson, was excellent in describing the local history and significance of the various buildings, historical events, persons, politics, agriculture, and environment of the Belize area. This is a must take tour from a local expert who shows his passion for the local community and history throughout the tour.

What a delightful man! We found Allen Dawson on Facebook and booked directly with him as an excursion from our cruise. Allen went out of his way to accommodate our group, which included one disabled person who needed a wheelchair. He took us on a fascinating tour of the city using his encyclopedic knowledge, stopped at his home to pick up a wheelchair, and then on to Altun Ha. Arriving early, we were spared the heat and the crowds who come later in the day on bus tours. Allen provided us with genuine insight into the history and everyday lives of the Mayans who built this phenomenal place. He pushed the wheelchair cheerfully and made us feel like we were his special concern. As we left, the tour buses started to arrive and soon the site was crowded with people. Allen got us back with time to spare and a smile on our faces. We cannot recommend this tour and Allen Dawson highly enough.

My fiancé and I visited Altun Ha via this excursion. The guide was on time and very knowledgable. He fed us information about Belize as we made the 45 min journey from our hotel. Once in the site, he did a great job describing the ruins and local vegetation. We had a school trip (young children) enter simultaneously with us and he did a great job being patience and making sure we learned what we needed. He took our picture as well. Later we returned and he drove us through the city and pointed out all the interesting buildings. That was about all we needed to see of Belize City downtown. Good value for the money.

This is a great way to kick off your Belize trip. You get a private van tour of Belize City and learn about all the important sites as well as the history of Belize. A private tour is definitely the way to go since it's only a few bucks more than for a group. You then take a 30 min. drive to the Altun Ha Mayan ruins. It's not the biggest Mayan ruins but it's still an amazing experience and you can climb to the top of all the temples. Our driver and tour guide Paul was very friendly and knowledgeable and made the tour a great experience. Be sure to stop at the wine stand half way to try some local cashew or blackberry wine!
ADVICE: Plan this and any tour of Mayan ruins for when there are no cruise ships in port. Cruise ships are usually there Wed-Fri during the tourist season (Oct-April). We went to Altun Ha Sunday morning at 11am and we were literally the only people there.

Percy and Shakil were great tour guides. Percy drove us to Altun Ha, and was very knowledgeable about the ruins. He let us go at or own pace, and answered all our questions. He also took us on drive through Belize City, and pointed out important landmarks. It was great to be able to drive through the city and get sense of what the loca life was like. Overall, great tour and alot of fun!

If you love exploring ancient ruins and have already seen Tulum and Chichen Itza in Mexico, then you will love Alton Ha and will feel that your Mayan adventures will feel a bit more complete after this tour. The guides are knowledgeable and seem to enjoy being tour guides very much. I would recommend this tour to anyone who likes strenuous climbs and adventure.

Can we change the itinery? skip the city tour ? Add the zoo after visiting the ruins if time? Two 80 year odds are NOT going to do any climbing.
