	Belize River Boat tour:  The riparian forest alongside the river's edge is the Natural Habitat for the Howler Monkey.  Our Boat tour is the most convienent and comfortable way to experience these wonderful primates while cruising through the Community Baboon Sanctuary

Photo courtesy of Zach Holmes	Crocodile adventure– On site This is an exciting 2 hour tour you will never forget! An expert guide will take you out to spot crocodiles using headlamps and a spotlight. Make sure you bring your camera -- You might just get to touch one!!

	Jungle canoe Tour   This is a peaceful  tour. Travel like the Mayas and let the Belize river gently meanders you downstream back to the lodge. Although this tour is relaxing, don't close your eyes -- you never know what wildlife you may see along the way.

Monkey/Nature Walk This is done on our private jungle trail system where we have followed the monkeys so you can see them doing their monkey business.  On this tour you learn about the jungle and its many plants and trees as we search the tree tops for the howler monkeys.  We respect their space although they make sure of that in their own way -- watchout above something warm might "accidentally" fall on you.

	ATM Cave The ATM cave will send your Belize adventure off the charts.  It has been featured in National Geographic and Discovery channel.  Don't be scared old people can do it too but for this one you need to be in relatively good shape and not scared of water! A trip well worth it!!

	Cave tubing (Xibalba) A fun fun fun and adventurous trip.  One you'll want to do again and again. Cave tubing starts with a  30 minutes walk through the jungle (under the shade), just enough to get the blood warmed up so you happy for a refreshing dip. We provide you with all needed equipment except your water-shoes & bathsuit.

Altun Ha Mayan Site Sometimes to appreciate a complex civilization such as the Mayas, we must see it from a site that is compact.  This Altun Ha.  Releatively small yet quite prospeous -- the largest jade head of the mayan world was found here.  Altun Ha shows the progession of growth in three phases and eventually how they struggled to survive as a community -- it even has very close by its water supply.

Lamanai (Mayan Site) -  A much larger site and one of the few sites with a life span of over 3,000 years. Lamanai is a site that you need all day to appreciate, not only to see the ball court, royal residence, churches, Mask temple, . . . but also to see the beautiful jungle and monkeys there -- and to think that only 10% of this site has been escavated.

	Hill Bank Station, the New River Lagoon The station is primarily used by researchers and other specialty groups. With special arrangements canoes can be rented to explore the lagoon and with advance planning a boat tour can be arranged up the New River.
The road to the station as well as the station itself is a good place for wildlife viewing but road conditions can be difficult in poor weather.  It is a 30 minute drive to the station and the lagoon in good weather.

	Belize Zoo The Belize Zoo is a very vibrant zoo specializing in animals indigenous to Belize. The well landscaped enclosures provide the animals a good home and the visitors with a sense of being in the wild. It is an easy 35 minute drive from Howler Monkey Lodge.

	Crooked Tree Wildlife Sanctuary Crooked Tree Wildlife Sanctuary is located on the Northern Lagoon. The types of birds seen vary with the seasons. At times the enormous Jabiru Storks can be seen in large numbers along with the brilliantly colored spoonbills at certain times of year.
It is an easy 55 minutes drive from Howler Monkey Lodge. Boat trip optional .

Zip-Line (canopy tour)  We take you to Jaguar Paw's canopy tour which is 50 minutes from Howler Monkey Lodge. This is an optional tour that can be done on the same day with cave tubing.  The tour consists of zipping along on a cable suspended about 75 feet in the air going from platform to platform through the jungle.

Photo courtesy of Zach Holmes Belize City Belize City is greatly underestimated as a place to visit for a day. There are many great things to do such as visit the Old Belize museum and beach, pamper yourself with a massage, visit the House of Culture, get a peek of the colonial architecture and to find that uniquely Belizean gift for your friends back home. It is an easy 30 minute drive from Howler Monkey Lodge.    Belize International Airport The Belize International Airport is an easy 20 minute drive from Howler Monkey Lodge. We will happily pick you up at the airport.
