UpClose Belize was a FANTASTIC choice for our family vacation! - My family had a wonderful vacation in Belize City, largely because of the exceptional service of Angie and Kim at UpClose Belize. We booked two full days of tours including: a private driving tour of Belize City, Altun Ha Temple, Zip Line, Cave Tubing, Horseback Riding, the Inland Blue Hole, and an ATV tour through a fruit farm! Each of our tours was outstanding and our tour guides were fantastic. Beyond all the tour-related stuff, Angie was also generous with answers to our questions about where to visit in town and how best to get around, etc. Our all-day tour guide, Elvin, was outstanding - personable and professional! He made sure our needs were met and that we were comfortable throughout, all while sharing tons of great information about the area and people. Our in-city guide, Murray, was also a huge help. In addition to our scheduled tours, he was frequently available to provide our family rides to different spots around town - shopping, restaurants, some GREAT local ice cream, and the water taxi. He was also very personable, sharing a lot about the city and its history. Overall UpClose Belize and its people made our family vacation one of the most memorable and enjoyable we've ever had, and I cannot recommend them more highly. Thank you again, UpClose Belize for memories we'll cherish for a lifetime.

UpClose Belize is the Best Company to Use - Amazing tour and awesome sights to see! We were in a time crunch since we were on a cruise and only in town for the day, but Elvin made our time count and we saw so much in our time there. Elvin is by far the best tour guide we have ever had and went above and beyond to make sure we had the best experience possible. While we couldn’t make it to Altun Ha Temple because of how late our ship got in, we still felt like we experienced so much through the cave tubing and ziplining in the jungle. UpClose Belize was an easy, accommodating, and amazing company to work with and we plan to use them again in the future because after one day there, we know we want to go back to visit for even longer!

Up close and amazing - Elvin was amazing! He is passionate about his country and it shows. Yes it’s a long day but well worth it. We took the first ferry out of San Pedro to Belize City and Elvin took it from there. He kept us on schedule and got us back just in time for the final ferry back. 💯 recommend.

Day of variety and adventure - It was a very long day but totally worth it. Our guide was fabulous, we had a group size of 8 (4 of us and 4 others). The guide was knowledgeable and took such great care of us. Highly recommend if you’re looking for a good mixture of history, exercise and adventure.

Best shore excursion in Belize! - We booked a "Altun Ha & Cave tubing" tour with Upclose Belize as a shore excursion for a Royal Caribbean Cruise. One side note is that you need to be on an early ferry (tender) to the mainland from the ship if your tour is longer and have relatively tight time constraints; this can get challenging as our ship reserved the early ferries (tenders) for passengers taking excursions through Royal Caribbean first-we just cut in line to ensure that we were on the first ferry. Our tour guide for the day, Joey, was amazing. Not only did he have extensive knowledge of everywhere we went, but was was also incredibly diligent in keeping us moving along and on schedule (this tour does take about 6 hours as there is a lot of driving-but both sites are phenomenal and well worth the time and expense). Joey imparted a deep respect of his culture while also having a lot of fun and being very conversational along our journey. Upclose Belize and in particular, JOEY, made this shore excursion the favorite of the trip. The correct answer is JOEY!!!!!

Tarique is the man!! - Tarique took my cousin and I on two different tours and they were some of the best tours we have ever been on! He is a great guide who is very knowledgable and genuine. He even came out to have a drink with us for my cousins birthday. Awesome guy for one of the highlights of our trip. Thank you Tarique!

Up close Belize is a must - Service and experience was the best I’ve had in travel. Super knowledgeable! Tarik, my guide, and Ishell who booked it were educated, engaging and so nice to speak with

Great Experience - I think the most important part is a good tour guide and we had a great one in Tarique Domingo. He shared so much information on not only the sites but history on Belize, info on the plants and trees and a couple extra stops to check out some of the local fruit and foods. All the sites and activities were amazing and beautiful.

Best adventure ever! - Our adventure was everything and more. I’m still in awe of what we did and saw. Joey was an incredible guide and very knowledgeable. We loved hearing him talking about the local vegetation and the medicinal purposes.

Great guide! - We had a bit of trouble finding our guide, at first. However, once we did, our tour was excellent! Jermaine was absolutely fantastic! We spent the day in a three person small group and he taught us tons about Belizean culture , Belizean life in cities and Towns, Easter and so much more. He answered all of my questions! When we got to Altun Ha, his degree in archaeology was evident! It was a great experience to tour with him. Zip lining and the cave tour were fun and the lunch spot was delicious! We really enjoyed our day with Jermaine and all that we learned!
