The highlight of our Belize trip!
Zach_H
, Aug. 2022
I have to say, the tour that Elio gave us went WAY beyond our expectations! He was so knowledgeable about Mayan history, local animals and plants, and led us through an incredible cave tubing (and swimming) adventure. My wife and I agree that the cave tubing was the highlight of our entire Belize trip! Would absolutely recommend this experience to a friend.

If you can only do one tour this is the one!!
Emilie_Z
, Jul. 2022
We went as a group of 7 and were treated as a private tour group with pickup right at our Airbnb. Elio was an amazing guide. His tour of the ruins added a lot of very interesting information that helped bring them to life in a way we never could have going on our own. He was always picking leaves, berries and nuts off of trees as we were passing and having us smell, feel and eat them while telling us about each’s medicinal properties. We had a lovely home made lunch with special accommodations made for a vegetarian in our group! The cave tubing was initially not the part of the tour we were most excited about but it ended up being our favorite part. The caves are beautiful (rivaling Carlsbad caverns in my opinion) and seeing them while tubing down a lazy river was an amazing experience. If you are adventurous take the tire tubes!! We also got out of the river several times to explore the caves more than any other tour group we encountered. Then Elio gave us some local restaurant recommendations and stopped to get the number of a local cab. Elio really went the extra mile to make sure we had an amazing time and catered the experience to our group. I would recommend this tour company and tour to anyone and everyone! If we had more time we would have done one of their other tours as well!

Thank you for taking time and writing such a detailed Review Emilie. St Leonard's is very grateful for the opportunity to take you and your friends on one of our signature tours. We are so happy you had a blast and enjoyed every aspect of your day. Elio is an amazing guide and who along with everyone at St Leonard's works very hard every day to make sure everyone has a great day. After a sunny morning exploring the Mayan site of Xunantunich, its also a blessing to enjoy the cool cave and refreshing river. We will sure to mention your appreciation for the home cooked meal to the hands that cooked the meal. Thank you once again for your kind words and for being such a wonderful group. We hope you enjoy the rest of your time in Belize and we look forward to having you join us again some time in the future.

Our favorite day on our trip to Belize!
Megan_T

Two friends and I had the best day with Elio on this tour! Xunantunich was so amazing to see and learn more about, the lunch that was included was delicious, and the cave tour was so interesting and cool. Elio made the whole day for us. He is truly one of the most intelligent people we have ever met! The amount of knowledge and facts he knew about a wide variety of information was so impressive. He taught us so much about Mayan history and culture, the caves and rock formations, plants and wildlife, and all about Belize itself. There wasn't one question we asked him that he didn't know the answer to. And he is so funny and kind! At the end of our trip to Belize, the three of us agreed that our favorite day was definitely this day of adventure and a large part of that was how fun and memorable Elio made the day! So thank you, thank you, Elio! :)

Michelle_B

We had a really good time on this tour. Our tour guide Edgar was informative and very conversational. We went as fast or slow as we wanted to go. The tour of Xanantunich was early in the morning, before everyone else got there. We had the whole place to ourselves. We had lunch at a place on our way to the cave. It was good food. The cave tubing adventure was calm and relaxing, just what we needed.

Elio and Carla created such a memorable and exceptional day for us! The tour of the ruins was fantastic. Elio took us around the ruins and provided us with a rich history of the Mayan civilization while also answering any questions we had. He knows his stuff! The cave tubing tour was incredible. Not only did we ride the tubes but we were able to walk around inside of the caves and go for a swim. Carla provided a delicious lunch that we enjoyed after the caves. I can't say enough good things about this tour. If you are looking for a tour with charismatic and kind people guiding you this is the one. You get the best of both worlds with the ruins and the caves in one day. Thank you so much Elio and Carla. We loved our tour so much!

Elio was an amazing tour guide! He was extremely knowledgeable, incorporated humor and enthusiasm, and was an all-around joy to be around for the day. He was thoughtful in bringing us ice-cold water bottles for the heat as well as snacks to munch on throughout the day. Not to mention, the home-cooked meal for lunch was honestly the best I had my entire time in Belize! So yummy! I highly recommend this tour; it was the highlight of our trip and I'm so glad we did it.

A perfect first day in Belize!
Emilia_W
, Aug. 2021
This was our first activity after arriving in Belize and it set the bar very high for the rest of our trip! It was just my friend and I on the tour with Elio and he was fantastic, friendly and welcoming as well as knowledgeable, happy to take pictures of us and answer all our questions. We were the only people at Xunantunich for the first part of the tour, which was truly amazing. Tubing in the caves was also incredible, we were able to get out and walk and swim through some portions of the caves and even jump into the clear water off a big rock. The slow tube ride down the river through the jungle afterwards was the perfect end to a beautiful tour. Elio was even able to drop us in San Ignacio town and give us some restaurant and bar recommendations for dinner. The whole day was an incredible experience!

Fantastic Tour, Amazing Guide
Charlotte-Best
, Jun. 2021
This tour was the most personalized tour we had in Belize, all thanks to the fantastic tour guide Elio. It was just myself and my partner, and Elio went at our pace and did everything with us, including climbing the ruins. This was refreshing in comparison to a Caracol tour guide who had "seen it enough" and left us to our own devices. Elio was super knowledgable about the history of the sites and current Belizean culture. He let us go on our own pace and take breaks if needed, and in our conversations, we got to know each other as people, not simply as a guide and followers. My partner cannot float or swim, but when we reached the pools before the caves, Elio was convinced to teach him how to swim. By the time we entered the caves, he could float and doggy paddle a bit, and Elio helped him work up the courage to do a cannonball off a large rock in one of the caves! Our experience was absolutely fantastic, and I cannot recommend this tour or Elio more.
