Outstanding and personalized! - Fabulous experience with a guide and just the two of us. Guide was knowledgeable about plants and everything about the island. We got to feed the howler monkeys for as long as we wanted.

Fun with the howler monkeys - We went with a plus adventures to the howler monkeys. Our driver was amazing and very knowledgeable as to the history of Belize and kept us thoroughly entertained. The owner Anthony was prompt and willing to get us ready for our tour without issue. When we arrived at the sanctuary, we were greeted by ourguide blue. He gave us instructions about the monkeys and then we were able to feed and hold them and listen to them howl. It was an absolutely amazing experience and we would encourage anyone who is interested or would love to see the monkeys in their habitat to take this tour

Not monkeys but good - So. I had signed up for howler monkey tour. But it was canceled. They offered a Mayan ruins tour instead. Which was great. Mark is a most excellent guide

Monkeys cool, trash not - The tour was nice and fun to see the monkey’s however we were taken to one tree that had several which was cool but the area had trash everywhere. Half my pictures had trash in them. And I mean beer bottles. It was near a home It would be a 5 if we were able to go to more areas and if they made sure the area was clean

Great Experience - Time spent with the howler monkeys was great. Didn’t like getting shaken down for an additional $20 for “entrance fee not covered in price already paid”. Was going to give that as tip anyway but seemed shady. Still tipped $30 because experience was unique and authentic.

Our driver was very... - Our driver was very knowledgeable and enthusiastic but it was a long drive to spend roughly 30 minutes at the preserve. We did see a family of 7 howler monkeys and spent some time feeding them. We got some great pictures.

Take your $50 bill and burn it to get the same enjoyment as this tour - Woe unto you who would book this rip off for $50 per person.The tour of thecity amounted to pointing out the call centers,the Walmart,several High Schools,the Hospital,etc.Boring and of no value.Next you driven for an hour to The Howler Monkey reserve.After walking over a mile on uneven ground you get to see three monkeys in the trees and an old mahogany tree.That's it and back in the van for another hour and then a supposed tour of a rum factory.This actually turns out to be a store where they try to sell you a bottle of rum.The staff there was quite rude and indignant.10 minutes there and back in the van,through the city again until reaching the cruise ship dock.Lastly the A/C on the van left something to be desired.

Keep your hard earned money - This is not worth the money. You spend a couple of minutes in the woods.... Not only do you pay for the tour, you pay more money when you get there. Save your money folks..

Unreliable - Really unprofessional. Despite the confirmation until the day before the tour, they canceled it 2 hours before the start, telling me that I was the only person booked and that if I wanted to do the tour anyway I would have to pay double to reach the minimum number of people or move the tour, but in my case it wasn't possible to do either one thing or the other. It was a real shame because I had moved to Belize city the day before to take part in the tour. I still received the refund
