Itinerary

Day 1Arrive Belize City Airport & Transfer To San Ignacio

Welcome to Belize! We’ll meet at Belize City Airport this afternoon and after a transfer to San Ignacio in the Cayo District, there will be an early evening ‘meet and greet’  with your Vegan Adventure Holidays trip leader and other members of the group this evening before dinner—think perfectly cooked rice, tender black beans, lightly sauteed fresh veg and a warm breeze.

Day 2San Ignacio ATM Caves

This morning you’ll get to step inside a cave featured as the #1 sacred cave destination in the world by The National Geographic. The Actun Tunichil Muknal Cave (also known as the ATM caves) are not only unique geologically, but historically; the ATM caves serve as a natural museum of ancient Mayan artefacts and sacred burial place.

You’ll hike 45-minutes through the jungle before taking a journey into the Mayan underworld, along with your local guide you’ll explore an extensive underground maze of tunnels, passageways and chambers, finishing in the ceremonial chamber where you’ll see stoneware, ceramics and the famed crystallized skeleton of the “Crystal Maiden.”

If today were a movie it would be where James bond meets David Attenborough in Planet Earth—mystery, action and conservation all rolled into one!

Day 3Travel To Bocawina Rainforest Lodge

Mayflower Bocawina National Park, in the southern district of Stann Creek, hosts a carpet of lush jungle, waterfalls cascading over foliage-fringed rocky cliffs and the remains of settlements of the Mayan empire: temples, ceremonial sites and residences. Set in a natural bowl fringed by the Mayan mountains it feels remote, but is in fact only an hour or so’s drive from some of the county’s major towns. Living and thriving in the rainforest are an estimated 238 species of birds; troops of black howler monkeys lurk in the canopy while beneath there are walking trails to explore.

Day 4Mayflower Bocawina National Park Hike

This morning you’re going to climb to the top of 1,000-foot high waterfall falls, and trek through lush rainforest whilst learning about jungle flora and fauna.

Our knowledgeable local guide will share interesting facts about the plants, trees, birds, and creatures that call the jungle their home. We’ll end the challenging hike to the top with a refreshing swim in the emerald pools and take in the breathtaking views of the Tropical Rain Forest and the Caribbean Sea. 

After a delicious vegan lunch back at the lodge, you might like to do one of the option activities later in the day—ride the longest rainforest canopy zipline in Central America, with a bird’s eye view over the forest. It takes up to two hours to complete the zip which is four km long and has 14 platforms, and nine different runs.

Not only is it long, offering you the opportunity thoroughly to get absorbed in the experience and spot birds and mammals high up in the branches, but you can also opt to ride the line at night…with a head torch. This is a rare chance to experience the canopy under the cover of darkness, which has a completely different feel to the daytime adventure. Keep an eye out for owls, howler monkeys, and bats!

Day 5Travel To Caye Caulker

After a relaxed breakfast, we’ll head back to Belize City to take a water taxi to the small Caribbean island of Caye Caulker where a no shirts, no shoes, no problem rule governs the island—vegan sandals optional!

Measuring 5 miles north to south and less than 1 mile east to west, the island is divided by a narrow channel called the Split, where there’s a bar and a sandy beach. To the south is the island’s only settlement, known as Caye Caulker Village. The north of the island is home to dense mangrove forest and diverse birdlife, protected by a forest reserve. 

Caye Caulker offers balmy breezes, azure waters, an easy-going attitude, and a fantastic barrier reef all right at its doorstep. 

 

 

Day 6Caye Caulker Full Day Snorkelling & Sailing

Drink up your tropical fruit smoothie because we’ve got a boat to catch! 

After getting kitted out with snorkeling gear, the first stop is the Hol Chan Marine Reserve where you can expect to see angelfish, blue-striped grunts, schoolmaster snappers, and hundreds of other varieties of fish, it’s also known for the green moray eels living in tiny caves along the wall.

The Shark and Ray Alley is another of our stops within the Hol Chan Marine Reserve, this spot is known as the shark and stingray city of Belize! You’ll get the opportunity to swim with the harmless Nurse Sharks and Southern Stingrays, this is a spot not to be missed.

The Coral Gardens are two and a half miles southwest of Shark and Ray Alley and due to extraordinary clear water you’ll be able to see the rainbow-like hues of the coral below, it’s an extremely special place.

Last but not least, our sailboat ride home; this journey takes around an hour and a quarter and it’s at the best time of the day just before sunset. Corn tortilla chips and salsa, rum or fruit cocktails make it a magical end to one of the highlights of this trip.

Day 7Departure Day - Belize City Airport

After a farewell breakfast, this trip finishes with a transfer back to Belize City Airport (or hotel).

Time to leave and head home after an amazing week but this is not the end of your journey, there’s so much more to see in Central America that maybe you’ll join a vegan adventure in Guatemala next!
