Belize tubing and waterfall - From Placencia —- We did the river tubing and waterfall. Perfect the instant our guide Israel picked us up. Provided amazing history of the area. Recommended the specific activities for us. Both spectacular. Local Belize lunch at the amazing Happy Ranch was one of the best meals on our trip. He also recommended one of his favorite Placencia restaurants which did not disappoint.

Cave tubing was a very cool experience. we had a great time. This is the second trip we have booked with this company, very professional, knowledgeable, and accommodating. We will definitely use them in the future.

Wonderful day with Wilder from Truly Wild Belize - We highly recommend to book with Wilder from Truly Wild Belize for any daytrip in Belize. Wilder is a local guide with an incredible knowledge about everything and he is so much fun to spend the day with. We were picked up from our resort and drove to the Xunantunich Maya historic site, On our drive Wilder gave us so much info about all we saw while driving and about Belize in general. Once at the Maya sight he was a truly knowledgeable guide, we learned so much. He took us to a local restaurant for a very nice Belizian lunch and then we continued on to the Cave tubing. Wilder was again great and the caves were absolutely stunningly amazing. A long drive back to our resort, but it was well worth it.

Wonderful tour of Mayan Ruins & Waterfall - 10/10 recommend using Truly Wild specifically Israel! Our originally booked tour we could not go on due to flooding but Israel gave us all the options and his recommendations. We did not feel like we missed out, actually we had an AMAZING time touring the ruins, learning about the culture and history of the Mayans, eating a traditional lunch and finally stopping at the waterfall for an afternoon swim. Would use this company for every tour in the future.

Laughing Bird Caye - Took a private trip with Jamie and Shawn out for snorkeling adventure around Laughing Bird Caye, had an incredible time! Safety was first and foremost, but seen tons of new and interesting creatures. Jamie did a great job of pointing things out, and telling us stories about what we flatlanders from Nebraska were seeing! Great trip, tasty rum punch and cold beer to make the tour enjoyable. Lunch at Ray Caye was incredible. Highly recommend!

Fun tour with Jonathon! - We chose to go cave tubing and to the Belize zoo. Jonathon was our guide and he was amazing! He is so knowledgeable about the caves and the history of the Mayan Indians. You can tell that he truly enjoys his job and loves his country. He explained so many facts and features of the caves throughout our journey as well as facts about the animals at the zoo, who are very well taken care of. Highly recommend this tour and Jonathon!

Mayan ruins and a refreshing swim - Rickie from Truly Wild Belize gave our small group an unforgettable day. Climbing the Xunantunich ruins was a spectacular adventure in itself, but Rickie was not only knowledgeable about the history and culture, but also hitting the ruins before the larger groups arrived. While climbing the ruins, he was patient with several that were concerned about heights. At the Blue Hole he left us to frolic in the refreshing water. Furthermore, throughout the day Rickie guided us to local foods that were off the beaten path that made our day even more memorable.
