Xunantunich
When you arrive, meet your local Belizean guide for the day and then mount your horses to depart! 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.

Unforgettable Adventure

5.00Jose is a wonderful, knowledgeable and funny guide. He was so much fun to have as our guide. So much knowledgeable about the horses we were on, the area and history. He made this trip so memorable for us! He adjusted the tour when he found out that we had already seen the temple and made sure we saw things we had not on our previous tour. Thanks to his knowledge we got to see a couple of Toucans, an entire family of Howler Monkeys,a pigme Owl and a silver fox was spotted by people in our group.

5.00This was a lovely ride along the river to the hand cranked ferry and then up the hill to the ruins. The guide Jose was very knowledgeable and we learned about the plants and the history of the Mayans. El Castillo is very tall so be prepared.
Maya Walk is great!

5.00We didn't do the horseback ride, just the tour. We went in a van. Great experience. MayaWalk provided a delicious lunch after the tour, and our tour guide, Junior was pleasant and informative. Go in the morning! the sun later in the day is STRONG!! Can't recommend MyaWalk enough!

5.00Fabulous ride and tour. Lovely ride by the river. Saw toucans and spider monkeys on route. Old school river crossing with hand crank felt authentic. Our guide Jose did a lovely job showing us the ruins, teaching us how to get a tarantula to come out of its hole, letting us trot and canter for those skilled. Wonderful trip and highly recommend it was a great way to see the archeological ruins while making the trip there fun. The horse parking lot was great.
Great customer service

Double check that you are confirmed with the stables

1.00We were booked for the horse riding to Xunantunich... booked it months ago. They called us the night before ( once we were in Belize) to tell us that the stables had double booked the horses and could not accommodate the trip. ( they use a 3rd party for the horses) Whilst this was probably not Maya Walks Belize fault... it was still incredibly disappointing. They did try to offer us alternatives, but we were not interested in just horse riding through a farm. Thankfully, we had our own car and were able to get there under our own steam and hired a guide right there at the ferry crossing. If you are booking this tour double, double check that the stable has not double booked . The trip was not cheap and was paid for in full. It took Trip Advisor 3 days to start processing the refund and another 3-4 days before it goes back into our account .
Amazing experience and first class hosts

5.00This farm was amazing, accommodating us at the last minute, while we found out that our ATM tour was cancelled due to heavy rains. The staff was amazing, as we showed up, making sure that our daughter, who had never ridden a horse before, was comfortable. They made us feel at home. Carla, our guide, was incredible, walking alongside us and guiding us through the forest and along the river. She made sure we were safe at all times and gave an incredible history of the Xunantunich ruins. I would recommend this tour for anyone!
Great tour, poor logistics

4.00Although the overall experience was amazing, it was slightly overshadowed by the poor logistics by MayaWalks. The bus that took us to the ranch was 35 mins late picking us up in the morning and then 45 mins late picking us up to take us home. This transportation is arranged by MayaWalks. Despite this, the actual tour was incredible. Miguel from Morningside Ranch was so friendly and knowledgeable, and the horses were beautifully cared for, loved and well trained. I would recommend anyone considering this tour to book directly through the ranch instead to ensure a smoother pick up.
