Very pretty - The ruins are amazing, the drive from the city to them is beautiful. The lunch was delicious, although a bit small on the portion.

Must do! - Seeing Altun Ha would have been amazing any way you look at it, but our tour guide, Albert was so knowledgeable. We learned about Altun Ha, The Mayan Civilization, Belize today and so much more. I love a tour guide who can present you with many theories, so you can choose what is the most sound historical explanation for yourself. His descriptions made everything so vivid, you could almost see it. He’s the kind of tour guide that makes you want to take whatever other tours he offers, because you know it will be good

Had best visit - Albert Alverez was our guide. HIGHLY RECOMMEND him. He is so knowledgeable about the area. He told everything he could about his country. We own a spice store and he pointed out a Allspice tree near us. Was very interesting because I just did a story on Allspice vs Allspice seasoning blends.
I have Parkinson and Albert was so patient and worried about me when I climbed the ruins. I did it 20 years ago had to do it again for myself. Recommend this tour.

City of the Sun God - Great afternoon learning about the history of Belize and the Mayan civilization at Altun Ha, located about 1 hour north of Belize City. Our first stop was the museum where our guide Albert gave us an overview of this historical site, which was home to a thriving city with temples dedicated to the Sun God, Kinich Ahau. The site is also where the largest carved jade artifact in Mesoamerica was discovered.
Afterwards our small group of four proceeded to the main plaza, where Albert told us more about some of the local plants and the function of the various temples. Our tour also included climbing to the top of the main temple. The steps were a bit steep, but there is a handrail to assist on the ascent. The views from the top were absolutely incredible and we were able to see the entire layout of the plaza.
The tour lasted approximately 4 hours and our guide Albert was extremely knowledgeable and helpful. We were also able to do a bit of souvenir shopping before heading back to Belize City.
Great tour if you're looking to do a quick tour and have limited time.

Atuna Ha Sun-God Pyramid Tour - We went during a slow period, and it was awesome. Not many people around and we had a great tour guide, Albert. He was very informative and we pretty-well had a personal tour of the Atuna-ha plaza and pyramids, which wrapped up with a climb up the pyramid of the sun-god. Totally awesome experience.
