Lamanai A Maya Experience

Getting to Lamanai is an easy and SPECTULAR 45-minute boat ride up the sinuous New River. Along the way, keep a lookout for various species of birds, iguanas and even crocodiles and enjoy Lamanai A Maya Experience.

Lamanai, or “Submerged Crocodile”, is one of Belize’s largest archaeological sites, located on approximately 950 acres along the banks of the New River Lagoon. Archaeologists claim that only 5% of the entire site has been excavated, leaving many structures still buried in the surrounding jungle.

One of Lamanai, a Maya Experience ‘s major attractions has to be the well-preserved stela of a Maya ruler emerging from a crocodile headdress.

Lamanai A Maya Experience

During your tour, you may be adventurous enough to climb the appropriately named High Temple. The view once on top is breathtaking and lets you take in nature at its best. Resting from your climb up the top, you will have time to reflect and understand why the Mayas built this city on the riverbank.

Lamanai A Maya Experience and Belize are believed to have been at the heart of the Maya civilization that dominated Central America from 250 AD to 900 AD and is one of the oldest continuously occupied Maya sites in the area, from 1500 BC to 1680 AD.

Be sure to bring plenty of water, repellant and light clothing as the climate is humid.
