Rainforest Tours Programs in Belize

My son went to Belize with Rustic Pathways summer 2025. He said he had a great time and enjoyed experiencing new things. He said Snorkeling was a favorite. As a parent I felt well informed and I enjoyed the fact they uploaded pictures for us to see

Hi Latoya! Thank you so much for sharing this! We’re so glad your son had such a great experience in Belize. We loved having him travel with us, and we’re happy to hear the photo updates helped you follow along on his adventure.

Excellent experience and program for teenagers and young adults. Highly recommend as a must do and my teenagers will be repeat customers. The programming captivates the imagination of teenagers (something very hard to do today) as it had the right balance of intrigue, learning and fun. The experience is very authentic, and not manufactured, which is a key differentiator when selecting teen programs. The program managers and staff where excellent communicators and very available to answer questions and overall were highly professional. I recommend ARCC over all the others on the market, as the ARCC experience is a step above the rest.

These two weeks in Belize were amazing. There were just the right amount of activities and they were all well spread out during the program. We got to see a lot of belize as we started ib the jungle and then move to the Caribbean sea. Beginning the trip at trek stop was very convenient as it was the perfect way to get to know the group better ad there weren’t that many activities. By the time we went to Placencia, we were already all friends which helped live this experience to its fullest. The snorkels and the dives were just amazing as we got to discover the beautiful coral reef. We also got to learn a lot about it during our stay on the island. The last two days of the trip we went back to placencia and got to relax and really enjoy our last moments with the group that by then became our family.

Rhondine and her staff go above and beyond to make sure her visitors have a wonderful, safe, and healthy experience! Given the circumstances of a recent hurricane, Rhondine worked diligently for us, communicating with community partners who were difficult to reach and making sure we had necessary sustenance to continue our work in Belize. Thanks TEP!

Martha's was great, including breakfast buffet! It would have been much better at other food places to have at least a few options to choose from rather than being told what we would be eating. Housing at Hopkins was not as good and the food was not great either. Our AC was supposed to turn on and off automatically and it did not. We also did not have any wifi, so we had no access to communication to our families at home. We actually ran out of food the first night when the other Uindy group was still there. However, I enjoyed the trip overall and most of the negatives were out of your control. I really enjoyed Maryam and am very glad that a member of your team was with us most of the time we were there. I really appreciate everything you and your team did for us!

My trip to Belize was amazing and I would recommend it to everyone I know. It was great to be able to do tourist activities but then also be able to immerse yourself with the people that are actually from the communities around there.

I had a fabulous time in Belize. I learned a lot about the culture of Belize and the Mayan culture. I thought that the immersion process was great and we experienced a wide variety of activities. I do think however there was time for more activities. I would have loved to see a little more of Belize. I thought the speakers could be moved to when it got dark so we could continue to use the day light to do more activities.
