Cayo District

Day 1: Into the jungle
Arrive in Belize and journey inland to the lush highlands of the Cayo District. Settle into your riverside retreat, surrounded by thick jungle and birdsong. As the sun sets, sip a rum cocktail and ease into the quiet of the forest.

Day 2: The sacred underworld
Embark on a private journey to Actun Tunichil Muknal, a legendary Mayan cave. Wade through cool water and shadowy caverns as your guide reveals crystalized relics, ancient pottery, and the haunting remains of long-lost rituals.

Day 3: Temples and the road to the sea
Climb the ruins of Xunantunich, where steep stone steps and carved friezes overlook the jungle canopy. After lunch, transfer south to the golden shores of Placencia. Arrive in time for a barefoot stroll on the beach and a private dinner under the stars.

Day 4: Coral kingdoms
Set out by boat to Silk Caye and Laughing Bird Caye, two idyllic islets on the Belize Barrier Reef. Snorkel vibrant coral gardens teeming with rays, turtles, and technicolor fish, then return to shore for a slow evening by the sea.

Day 5: River life and jungle nights
Glide along the Monkey River at dawn, watching for crocodiles, howler monkeys, and rare birdlife. Later, venture into the Cockscomb Basin Wildlife Sanctuary for a guided night hike. In this untouched jaguar preserve, the forest comes alive after dark.

Day 6: A seaside farewell
Spend your final morning savoring coffee with your toes in the sand. Stroll Placencia’s sleepy sidewalk or simply relax before your private transfer back to Belize City.
