Belize Jungle & Island Glamping Adventure Tour

Belize Jungle & Island Glamping Adventure Tour

Sun, Nov 29, 3:00 PM
From Explorer Chicks of San Francisco
4.8

Join our Belize Jungle Adventure Tour & Glamping adventure trip for women only! Spend 8 glorious days staying active in a tropical paradise! Explore the rainforest jungle, try waterfall rappelling, discover ancient Mayan ruins, snorkel, zip-line, and more! Enjoy all of this, plus luxurious glamping on a remote Caribbean island. Trade endless staff meetings for a heart-thumping collision of mainland jungle exploration and tropical island glamping on a UNESCO-designated Marine Preserve?! Forgive us, but you aren’t going to BELIZE this trip. Your adventure in Belize will encompass the best adrenaline-pumping jungle activities on the mainland and the serene, remote island experience in the middle of the Caribbean Sea on a UNESCO-designated Marine Preserve. During the first half of your jungle adventure, you’ll explore Mayan ruins, navigate caves featuring 3,000-year-old artifacts, and immerse yourself in the Belizean Jungle embarking on new adventures each day. **WATERFALL RAPPELLING, ZIP-LINING, AND CAVING** Learn to rappel and descend 250 feet from the top of a waterfall with views as far as the turquoise Caribbean Sea. Zip-line 2.5 miles through Bocawina National Park over the jungle canopy enjoying Belize from a bird’s eye view. Then, channel your inner Indiana Jones as you strap on your headlamp and step back in time 3,000 years into the depths of a cave with Mayan artifacts and ceremonial alters. **MAYAN RUINS** To top it off, wander the archaeological grounds of Xunantunich. An ancient civilization of over 200,000 people thrived here until 1,000 years ago, when it was mysteriously abandoned. During your adventures on the mainland, stay in a Rainforest Eco-Lodge powered completely by hydroelectricity and solar with your gang of Explorer Chick gal pals. **SNORKELING, KAYAKING, AND SUP** On the second half of your Belize Jungle Tour Adventure, we’ll whisk you away from the mainland! Travel by boat 36 miles to a remote island Glamping base camp for the next 5 days and 4 nights. Glover’s Reef Marine Preserve is designated as a UNESCO World Heritage Site and is one of only four atolls in the western hemisphere. The turquoise waters are host to over 700 patch reefs. It is one of the richest tropical marine environments in the Caribbean. The waters here are exceptionally clear because of its isolation from the mainland making it a utopia for spotting marine life and water activities. Hello, coral reefs and all the fishies! 🐠 Fill your days with water activities exploring your remote island paradise. Grab snorkel gear and head out on a SUP to swim with sea turtles and colorful fish. Learn to use the wind to your advantage and kayak sail to coral destinations. Master the technique of line fishing from local Belizean guides and cook up your catch for dinner. Or, just kick it in a hammock with a good book as the wind rocks you gently. Oh, and you bet there will be dance parties as you learn Garifuna moves.💃 #SHEnanigans **PRIVATE, REMOTE ISLAND GLAMPING** So, what really makes these last five days special? Your home away from home on a remote, 13-acre island! These digs are Pinterest-worthy tent-walled cabanas with real beds, wooden floors, a porch, and that essential ocean view right outside your screened door. 👌 Go to sleep each night to the sound of the sea lapping the shore from your Cabana. Wake up each day to views of the Caribbean and learn a new definition of paradise. Embrace the Belizean way of life devoid of chaos and spend your days on Ocean Time. This is not to say our days will be spent like a fly and flop vacation, tanning on the beach. Heck no! Your days will be filled with the perfect amount of activity and relaxation to give you the ultimate and authentic Caribbean Island experience off the coast of Belize. **See the website for full itinerary, details and to book.** [https://explorerchick.com/adventures/belize/](https://explorerchick.com/adventures/belize/) **Say Hello 👋** **💻** Website: [https://explorerchick.com/](https://explorerchick.com/) 📧 Email: [hello@explorerchick.com](http://hello@explorerchick.com/) 📸 Instagram: [https://www.instagram.com/explorerchickadventureco/](https://www.instagram.com/explorerchickadventureco/) ❤️ Facebook: [https://www.facebook.com/ExplorerChickAdventureCo/](https://www.facebook.com/ExplorerChickAdventureCo/) 👯‍♀️ Facebook Group: [https://www.facebook.com/groups/weareexplorerchick](https://www.facebook.com/groups/weareexplorerchick) 🎥 TikTok: [https://www.tiktok.com/@explorerchick](https://www.tiktok.com/@explorerchick)

Frequently asked questions

Meetup connects people through local groups and events based on shared interests. It's perfect for discovering activities and meeting new people in your area or online.

Use Meetup to search for adventure-related groups in San Francisco. Enter relevant interests such as hiking or outdoor activities and browse available groups nearby.

Absolutely! Meetup allows you to join as many groups as you like. It's a great way to connect with different communities and explore a variety of activities.

While many groups may host regular events each weekend, availability depends on the specific group and organizer. Check the group calendar to stay updated.

Once you find an event that interests you, click RSVP on the Meetup event page. This lets the organizer know you're attending and helps you stay informed about details.

Meetup offers a range of free events, though some organizers may charge a fee for their events. Always check event details for any potential costs.

Meetup focuses on group activities, making it ideal for community building rather than one-on-one interactions. You'll meet people in shared, social settings.

While many events are led by knowledgeable hosts, Meetup itself does not supervise events. Details vary, so participant safety is always a personal responsibility.

It's wise to check event descriptions for gear requirements. Basic outdoor clothing and footwear are essential; some hikes may need specific equipment.

You can suggest events through group forums or discussions. If you're a group member, consider conveying ideas and see if organizers are interested.

Group availability varies by location and interest, so while San Francisco likely has kayaking groups, it's best to search using specific keywords through Meetup.

Meetup does not organize events but connects members with group-hosted activities. Event structure and organization depend on each unique host.

Many adventure groups in San Francisco include camping as part of their activities. Check specific group event calendars for upcoming camping trips.

While Meetup provides a platform for real connections, group quality and event authenticity depend on member feedback and self-policing communities.

Meetup is a great place for beginners! Look for groups that welcome all skill levels or specifically cater to newcomers to the hiking community.
