About Private Altun Ha and Baboon Sanctuary from San Pedro
This private Altun Ha and Baboon Sanctuary tour from San Pedro is for guests who want to leave the island for the day and see a deeper side of Belize on the mainland. San Pedro is known for the sea, but just across the water, you can enjoy ancient Maya history, village conservation, and Belize wildlife with a guide who helps the day make sense from start to finish.
The day usually begins with your island connection, so timing matters. Once your mainland pickup is confirmed, your guide helps you continue to Altun Ha, one of the most accessible Maya sites to visit from Belize City. At the ruins, you can walk through the plazas, see the temple structures, and learn why this ancient city is still important to Belize today.
The Community Baboon Sanctuary brings a different kind of experience. Here, the main focus is on the black howler monkey and the people who help protect its habitat. In Belize, we often call these monkeys “baboons,” and their deep calls can be among the most surprising sounds visitors hear in the forest.
Because you are coming from San Pedro, this tour needs careful planning. Your guide can help match the day to your water taxi or flight timing, your group’s pace, and the activities included. That is where a private tour makes a big difference. You are not guessing how the mainland day will work; the plan is reviewed before you go.
This is a good choice for couples, families, and small groups staying in San Pedro who want more than a beach day. Send your travel date, island connection plans, and group size so we can help confirm if the timing works well.

Important Information
Send your travel date, pickup location, group size, and any timing limits before confirming. Island guests should confirm water taxi or flight times before the mainland tour is accepted. This tour is generally easier than Belize’s more active cave or jungle adventures, but guests should still expect warm weather, walking, and uneven ground in places. Tour order can change because of weather, road conditions, site rules, sea conditions, park operations, or safety decisions by the guide/operator.
