Belize Jungle Dome Trip Review - Lucas Family, NC, USA

We have been delighted by our visit with you. Your personal welcome, flowers on the bed and a cool drink as we settled in made us instantly welcome. The children found so much to thrill them.

Stopping at the Zoo on the way from the airport could have been a disaster for tired travelers but as all your guides did, Juan brought us closer that we could have gone on a self-guided tour. Watching our 6 year-old feed a black jaguar, our 8 year-old toss peanuts to the howler monkeys we rarely see from closer than 100 feet, and standing beside a jabiru as tall as my 9 year old are all experiences we can’t soon forget.

James’ fondest memory of the ruins was touching the tarantula at the entrance to Tikal. Sarah loved sitting 20 meters up on the pyramid overlooking the ball court and market place. Catherine was proud to have climbed the hundreds of steps to the top and have her picture with the other family we spent the day with.

Our day trips included the zoo, Xunantunich ruins, horseback riding, tubing in the river caves and Tikal Ruins in Guatemala. Coming “home” was a perfect end to a hot, tiring day with the pool and hammocks and tire swings being sweet respites and the frogs, crickets, birds, monkeys and your own family & staff great comforts.

The room, food and smiles were perfect. We will be recommending you to everyone we meet. You have established a fantastic staff and experience and you are gracious and friendly!

Couldn’t have been better.
