We will book again!
Our guide Jose was great to the whole Family and ensured we had a good day despite the river rising and tubing canceled. We found alternative tours and he guided us every step of the day.

Very enjoyable tour
The tour with Jeff as our guide was wonderful! He gave us a lot of interesting information regarding Belize and its history. He took us cave tubing and to Altun Ha. We walked about 30 minutes to get to the cave opening. It was an easy walk but you did need to watch your step due to tree roots and small rocks. Jeff took his time so we could take it all in, so it was a very relaxing float throughout the cave and we were able to take lots of pictures. The tour of the ruins is fairly short as it’s not a place where a lot of time is needed. All in all, a great experience!

Great tour of Mayan Ruins, Cave Tubing and the zoo!
We booked the Altun Ha Mayan Ruin & Cave Tubing adventure, as well as added on the Belize Zoo. Jose planned the trip perfectly to avoid a crowd at either place. His associate, Abel, led us on the cave tubing, starting with a walk through the Mayan jungle explaining various plants and trees and their many uses. It was interesting to hear about the history and forest secrets. The cave tubing portion was very fun as well with a ton of history and waterfall inside the cave. This was a great start to the day. From there Jose guided us on the zoo tour, where we saw so many local animals. Jose was very knowledge about the animals and cared very much about the zoo. Our last stop was the Mayan ruins which was an amazing piece of history to see. Structures hundreds of years old, still standing. Jose was very knowledgeable about Belize and all aspects of the tour - he’s a great guide!

Great time
This was great because we got to do two excursions at once. Through the cruise line it was either cave tubing or Mayan ruins. But this group made sure we got to do both. I was worried about missing the ship at the end of the day, but they were in constant contact with each other making sure we got back to the port on time. Jose called me before to make sure my concerns were addressed. He gave me a hug at the terminal. It felt like we were friends. Jeff was our driver. The potholes were the most adventurous part of the excursion. Jeff knew where they were and we missed every single one of them. What a challenge. Several in my group had to cancel, so I went by myself and Jeff made sure I was comfortable. I made new friends. Thanks Crew. Great time.

Why this scores 65
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Private Altun Ha Maya Ruin & Cave Tubing Adventure From Belize City: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Belize City.
How much does Private Altun Ha Maya Ruin & Cave Tubing Adventure From Belize City cost?
+
Prices start at $133 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Belize City usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Private Altun Ha Maya Ruin & Cave Tubing Adventure From Belize City take?
+
Plan for about 5 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Belize City is not rushed.
Is Private Altun Ha Maya Ruin & Cave Tubing Adventure From Belize City worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 65 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.6/5 across 25 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Belize City, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Private Altun Ha Maya Ruin & Cave Tubing Adventure From Belize City?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Private Altun Ha Maya Ruin & Cave Tubing Adventure From Belize City suitable for kids and families?
+
The operator sets a minimum age of 4. Older children generally do well here, and families should factor in the 5-hour running time when deciding.
How far in advance should I book Private Altun Ha Maya Ruin & Cave Tubing Adventure From Belize City?
+
Around 9 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Belize City can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Belize City and add a light layer if any part of the 5-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Private Altun Ha Maya Ruin & Cave Tubing Adventure From Belize City start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Belize City within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Belize City?
+
On Outty we rank every Belize City experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Cave Tubing and Zipline Adventure from Belize City, Caves River Kayaking, Explore More with V.i.V., Altun Ha Mayan Temples and Cave Tubing Paradise With Lunch. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Belize City?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Belize City?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
