  First, finding an actual itinerary of this tour is difficult, so I will make it easier for you. Expect a 25 minute speed boat ride.. bumpy and tough on the body because that’s what they are… to Monkey island. They keep telling you “this is where you’ll be for lunch”… but it’s only 9.00AM. But really what’s happening is that you’re PLACING YOUR ORDER for lunch. That phrase would have helped enormously. Then another 1.5 hours at NON-speedboat speeds on the river looking for things that move: Iguanas, birds, monkeys. Except you may not see any monkeys on the boat. To do that, at least in our case there are a few inlet stops. Then it’s a trek into the jungle, which in our case because it was raining like crazy the day before and even that day, was a muddy muddy mess. Fun to a degree, but also, most people don’t know their limits and likely shouldn’t do the hike. But, indeed, we did see howler monkeys in the trees high above. Tons of mosquitos in the jungle too. But expect it to likely be a muddy muddy mess and yes, some people slipped because of their inability and nobody got hurt. The guide was SUPER clear that the hike isnt for everyone and at your own risk, but still people made some poor choices. Then we took the boat back to monkey island for lunch around 12.00. Lunchtime was fish or chicken .. both excellent and the service was charming and a few things to buy from the locals at reasonable prices. Finally, we speed boated back via the route which we could maybe see manatees, but… I was doubtful, and we didn’t. They said it was rare not to see them though. The speed boat part at speed was very hard on the back, bang.. bang.. bang compressing… and we’re sore today from it, but your experience may vary. The GUIDE was good and entertaining (sorry I can’t remember his name). We also got picked up from Hopkins. I had to ask the tour operator three or four times over Viator before the actual event day ….if we could be picked up at our Hopkins hotel and not the Hopkins inn, which would have required us to get a taxi at 6.45 in the morning. Eventually, on the 3rd or 4th try asking, he finally said yes.. and pickup and Dropoff was excellent and handled by driver James. The day was raining on and off, which for me, was quite hard when the speed boat is speeding at speed with rain in your face, etc. We were back on the original dock around 1.15. All in all, we took a chance with the weather, and we knew what we were getting into. So, plan accordingly. In all, if it was less rainy it likely would have been better, but you can’t change the weather and we went on the tour knowing this. In short, the guides were good, food was good, but plan accordingly based upon these details I’m providing.

  Really good value for money. Saw black howler monkeys, range of bird species, manatees, and an excellent boat trip. Monkey island is fabulous and bought a few bits from the ladies where you get off the boat, they even had card machines. Tour guide was from the area and very good. Highly recommend. I know the tour guides would like the howlers to do their impressive call but once you see them I think its not necessary to provoke them to call. Still think it was an exceptional trip and would take it 100 times over.

  We had an awesome tour guide? Very knowledgeable and shared his history of growing up there. We saw huge iguanas, lots of birds, 1 alligator and some howler monkeys. The walk in the jungle was muddy, don’t wear flip flops or nice shoes. Tip your guide well and buy souvenirs. These folks live poorly and depend on our generosity.

  Our tour guide actually lives on the Monkey River. We were driven from Hopkins to Placencia to catch the tour boat. We saw many birds, crocodile, turtle and we left the boat for a short jungle walk. There we saw small red crab, fungi, blue crab, a large spider and Howler Monkeys. This jungle is teeming with life! We had a wonderful lunch in the guides village. When we left the village we went on to an area off the edge of a largish island to watch for manatee which we did see. They barely come to the surface and do a roll to gulp air and dive again. A delight day in the jungle and along the ins and outs of the many islands off the southern tip of Belize! Thank you Getting to Know Belize Adventures and their knowledgeable guides!!!
