Description
Your Mopan River kayaking tour begins just steps away from Villa Massis, where your guide will get you set up with a kayak, paddle, and safety gear. After a short briefing, you’ll launch into the calm, clear waters of the Mopan River, surrounded by jungle-covered hills and the sounds of tropical birds and wildlife.
As you paddle downstream, your guide will point out unique flora, fauna, and share historical insights about the region—including how this river once served as a key trade route for the ancient Maya. The journey is peaceful and scenic, with the occasional gentle current adding a fun touch to the ride. You can move at your own pace, take photos, or simply pause to enjoy the natural beauty around you.
The kayaking experience typically lasts 1.5 to 2 hours, depending on river conditions. At the end, you’ll be transported back to Villa Massis where you can relax by the pool or enjoy a delicious meal at our on-site restaurant.
