Things to do in Belmopan, Cayo: The Best Sightseeing Tours

February 15, 2022 Elouise Mccaul

Smaller and more intimate than popular resort areas such as San Ignacio and Belize City, the modest capital of Belmopan is nonetheless a vibrant city surrounded by stunning scenery and wildlife. Next to the bustling Market Square, Independence Plaza is home to the prime minister's offices, various pedestrian pathways and the National Assembly Building, designed to resemble a Mayan temple. Outside the city lay the spectacular Guancaste Park as well as the astonishing Hummingbird Highway.

I would highly recommend for tours or transfers. My husband and I were lucky enough to have Francisco "Cisco" as our guide for the transfers and the cave tubing. He is extremely knowledgeable about the trees, plant, birds, etc. We learned a lot from him. When we transferred to Placencia, our lodging was hard to find, but Cisco stayed with us until we found the place and made sure we were able to get into the room before leaving! He even carried our bag with all our snorkel gear in it!!. He was amazing! Rick & Donna H

We are the first -- and only -- provider of super stretch, 20 passenger, SUV limousines in the country of Belize. When you go on one of Belize's amazing day tours, learn about our culture, visit our fabulous ruins and caves, and explore our wildlife adventures, why do so bouncing around in a circa-1980 panel van with a distracted driver/guide yelling over his shoulder at you? Instead, ride with a professional limo driver dedicated to only one thing -- your safety. Take a deep and meaningful dive into our culture with a top-flight guide, who accompanies you inside the limo, faces you, eye to eye, answering all your questions and catering to all your needs. Breakfast, lunch, spirits, all included. In truth, you spend more time getting to these sites than enjoying them, so why not make the transportation part of the experience? this tour is perfect for a group that wants a private tour experience.

Inclusions: zip lining equipment, Private guide and private driver, Air-conditioned vehicle, Alcoholic Beverages, Bottled water, Breakfast, Lunch, Private transportation, Soda/Pop

If you’re looking for fun, adventure, and a peaceful experience all in one Cave Tubing with Omar of Smart Travel is a must! Had the most enjoyable experience learning about the history of the caves with Omar! First and foremost he made sure all protocols were followed to ensure he provided a covid free environment. His knowledge and love for his country is evident throughout the entire tour! Lunch was fantastic and we ended the day with a brief American crocodile visit! Had an exceptional day! Thanks Omar and Smart Travel Belize!

We specialize in native epiphytes, such as orchids and bromeliads (air plants) and have the largest collection of these plants in the country.

The resort offers such a unique experience. The treehouse rooms are amazing. The view from every room was incredible! We ordered “tea service” in the mornings which was coffee and juice and pasties delivered to our roof deck early in the morning to watch the jungle awaken. Food was great and the excursions were wonderful. The best part of this resort is the outstanding staff. They could not have been more welcoming and invested in making our trip special. A special shout out to Marco, the best bartender around, server Tanya and guides Pedro and Marvin. Pedros’ enthusiasm and depth of Mayan knowledge and Marvin’s ability to identify every bird near and far were both exceptional! Great experience!!!!!
