Description
Your Mopan River tubing tour begins just steps away from Villa Massis, where your guide will get you outfitted with a comfortable tube and safety gear. After a short briefing, you’ll ease into the calm, clear waters of the Mopan River, surrounded by jungle-covered hills and the sounds of tropical birds and wildlife.
As you float downstream, your guide will point out interesting flora, fauna, and historical tidbits about the area—including how this river once served as an ancient trade route for the Maya. The pace is slow and peaceful, allowing you to soak in the scenery, snap a few photos, or simply close your eyes and drift beneath the canopy. Occasional small rapids add a touch of excitement, but the tour remains beginner-friendly and relaxing throughout.
The tubing portion 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 unwind by the pool or grab a bite from the on-site restaurant.
This experience is ideal for families, couples, solo travelers, and anyone looking for a low-key adventure surrounded by Belize’s natural beauty. All gear is provided, and no previous experience is necessary—just bring your swimsuit, sunscreen, and a sense of curiosity.
