Combining Belize Trips - Glover's Reef + Bocawina Rainforest Resort

glovers-bocawina.jpg

Combining trips is a great way to create your own, ideal Belize itinerary.   From rainforest to reef, to Mayan ruins to beaches, there are so many ways to discover Belize. With the unbelievable diversity in this small country, we recommend customizing a trip plan that allows you to experience the best of Belize -  your way.  
 

Many guests mix and match the short trip options from our Getaways and Extensions menu. Others combine these short trip itineraries with our Classic Trips or Year-Round Adventure Packages.   
 

Here is one of our favorite trips combinations for the upcoming Expedition Season. It combines our Adventure Basecamp on Glover’s Reef Atoll with our eco-lodge in the rainforests of Mayflower Bocawina National Park.  Additional ideas and suggestions can be found on our Combining Trips page.


The Glover’s Getaway + Rainforest Canopy Adventure

 

A trip to Belize has to include visiting the largest barrier reef in the Northern Hemisphere.  One of the best ways to explore the diverse marine life and small cayes is by kayak, snorkel and SUP. With the Glover’s Getaway trip, you will spend three days discovering Glover’s Reef Atoll - a protected marine park and UNESCO world heritage site.  

Days will be spent paddling, snorkeling and exploring the turquoise lagoons and thriving coral reefs.  This trip itinerary includes staying at our Glover’s Reef Basecamp on Southwest Caye, where you will sleep in comfortable, safari-style tent cabanas and dine on fresh fish and local cuisine.

To experience the incredible a diversity of Belize, visiting the tropical rainforests is another must do.  After spending three days exploring Glover’s Reef Atoll, venture inland to the southern Maya Mountains. With the Rainforest Canopy Adventure you will spend three days exploring the untouched, tropical rainforests.  You will be based at the Bocawina Rainforest Resort situated in the 7000 acre Mayflower Bocawina National Park and adjacent to the world famous Cockscomb Basin Jaguar Reserve.  

Days will be spent hiking in the Bocawina Rainforest or exploring the rainforest canopy on Belize's longest zip-line.  The national park is home to beautiful waterfalls and has excellent wildlife viewing and birding opportunities.
