Belize Tours & Adventures with Trained Jungle Guides
The nicest way to see Belize up close is on horseback. You’ll find beaches, jungle, pine forests and a few other types of terrain. Each one of these ecosystems is full of life and usually includes Mayan ruins. The San Ignacio area is predominantly jungle and rolling hills with lots of Mayan ruins. Pacz Tours has quite a few different half day and full day horseback riding tours that explore these areas.
