Private Tour: Altun Ha and Baboon sanctuary from Belize City

This private Altun Ha and Community Baboon Sanctuary tour joins Maya archaeology with one of Belize’s most meaningful community conservation stories. Explore Altun Ha’s plazas and temples while your private guide explains how this ceremonial city traded between the Caribbean coast and inland settlements. The experience then moves from ancient stone architecture to the living forest of Bermudian Landing, where black howler monkeys—called baboons locally—are protected through cooperation among villages and private landowners. Learn how the seven-village sanctuary maintains forest corridors while supporting local communities, and listen for the unforgettable calls of the howlers overhead. The distinction is not simply visiting ruins and seeing wildlife. Both places reveal how Belizeans protect what matters: one preserves evidence of an ancient civilization, while the other safeguards a living species and its habitat.
