Horseback Riding Adventure

Rainforest Horseback Riding

Phenominal Experience for Families
When coming to Belize you might say to yourself, "I've already been horseback riding in the States."  But ask yourself:  Have you been horseback riding in the rainforest?  Now I bet you'll get a whole different answer, and a whole different experience.

Romen, you ready for
another adventure? 

This is how my Mom & I "Rock & Roll".  We have fun together.

Jungle Horseback Riding

Jungle Horseback Riding:  One of the best ways to explore the natural beauty of Belize is on horseback.  Far from the bustle of roadways and noisy towns, small trails wandering through the pine forests, jungles, and savannas allows horseback riders to get “up-close & personal”, with the wildlife and flora that make Belize one of the most bio-diverse countries on this planet.

Horseback riding will take you off the beaten path, to explore the gorgeous scenery and beauty of Belize at a natural pace.  Guided horseback tours are offered daily.  One of the most popular horseback riding tours in Belize, is to enjoy your ride while exploring an ancient Mayan ruin site.  Horseback riding to the Xunantunich Mayan ruins, is by far the most popular tours requested.  Xunantunich is located in the jungle wilderness (on the western edge of Belize), near the border of Guatemala. 

Half day tours include horseback riding to any (one of four) Mayan ruin sites.  If you’re looking for something a little shorter, perhaps more leisurely (and kid friendly), tours are offered riding around the San Lorenzo Farm. 

No previous horseback riding experience is necessary.  All tours are family-friendly and are limited to small intimate groups.  Dry season (November to May), is the best time of year to do this tour.  By riding in the dry season, you avoid many problems due to flash flooding, muddy trails and slippery conditions.

River Bank Tree

This was the most impressive tree I think I've ever seen in Belize.  Something you'd expect to see in a movie like Avitar.  Romen is pictured at the base of the tree (then if you look up), it's just a huge canopy with hundreds and hundreds of orchids growing from the branches.

Jungle Horseback Riding

Exceptional Family Adventure - Guided tours are offered daily. The most popular tour is half day horseback ride to Xunantunich Mayan Ruins, or a shorter, more leisurely horseback riding around the San Lorenzo Farm. 
     Most of our horseback rides are suited for beginners and no previous horseback riding experience is necessary. Although, we do offer some advanced horseback rides that do require previous riding experience. During these tours, you will have ample opportunity to trot, canter, and gallop to your hearts content. 
     The tour begins by meeting your guide, greeting your horse and preparing to depart.  Horseback riding in the jungle is unique, and there are few places in the world where this is offered. 
     The ride to Xunantunich includes a well-maintained trail through a large private farm and along the banks of the Mopan River in the village of San Jose Succotz.  You will cross the river on an ancient hand-operated ferry, and then ride your horse up to Xunantunich.
     When you arrive, prepare to dismount and let your horse rest while you explore Xunantunich by foot for as long as you desire.
     Afterward, we will ride back to the farm where we will enjoy a delicious lunch of traditional Belizean dishes featuring ingredients grown on our organic farm.
     Horseback Tours - no experience necessary
  • Xunantunich Mayan Ruins
  • El Pilar Mayan Ruins
  • Actun Kan Mayan Ruins
  • Cahal Pech Mayan Ruins
  • San Lorenzo Farm Tour
Note:  We like to keep our tour groups, small & intimate.  This allows us to provide individual attention, and is better suited for the horses.

Romen had the time of his life.  In the hours after our visit, he kept asking to get back on that horse.  Don't worry Romen, we're going to come back here again soon.

This ends our adventure horseback riding in the jungle.  It was a great experience, and a wonderful thing for families to do together.  I would encourage anyone who is interested, to consider horseback riding in Belize.

As Always.......

We Miss You Jaymin

You are forever in our minds & hearts.

    This lovely lady I'm sitting next to (is Roman's mom), the mother to my grandson.  Together, we are going to take the boys (Jaymin  & Romen - Jaymin being my other grandson), on a series of adventures throughout the country of Belize.  This is our photo diary of those adventures, to share with you.  Many of these adventures can be enjoyed by families (just like us), while traveling on vacation in Belize.
