This is the Highway to Tower Hill. Here, we will once again board another boat that will take us down the winding New River Lagoon for forty-five minutes where Belizean wildlife at its best comes alive. We will encounter the many species of birds, monkeys, crocodiles, interesting plant life, and culture as we pass the Amish and Mestizo communities along the way. Once at Lamanai, lunch is served along with sodas, beers, and rum punch. Lamanai, also translated to submerged crocodile, is dated a pre-classic structure in the Mundo Maya. This is the only Maya site in Belize that has its own private museum, where all the artifacts found by the archaeologist, Pendergast and his team, are kept. Our experienced tour guide also provides a detailed and informative briefing on all of the artifacts. The tour covers approximately five to eight of the Lamanai Maya Temples. While touring this site, huge masks depicting dead rulers and gods seem to materialize out of the rainforest amid the chatter of bird life and the haunting call of the Howler monkeys. Our guide will point out the Copal and Raman trees, which were of great importance in ancient times. After a completely once in a lifetime experience, a leisurely journey back will retire our day.
