Exploring Cockscomb Basin & Nature Preserve

Embark on an unforgettable adventure with our Jaguar Preserve Expedition departing from Placencia! Your journey begins as we pick you up from your chosen location and transport you to the Cockscomb Basin, also known as the Jaguar Preserve.

You will enjoy the day in the natural wonders of Belize as you have the option to indulge in a serene river tubing experience or a refreshing dip at a stunning waterfall – or why not do both for the ultimate day of exploration? Our lush jungles await your discovery, offering an exhilarating hike through the rainforest.

Your knowledgeable tour guide will kick-start the expedition with an informative briefing, setting the stage for your day ahead. It is a picturesque drive into the heart of the jungle until you reach the well-appointed visitors center. Here, your group will engage in a lively discussion about the park's rich history and ecological significance, deepening your connection to this pristine environment. Together, you'll decide on the trail that beckons you most, setting off on a journey of discovery.

Prepare for a major highlight – the river tubing adventure within the Jaguar Preserve. First on the agenda, you'll select your rubber tube and set out on a 40-minute hike to the riverside. Receive a friendly reminder on effective river tubing teamwork and safety guidelines before plunging into approximately 35 minutes of thrilling aquatic fun. Exiting the river, your rubber tubes will be stowed away as you gear up for the next exciting leg of your expedition.  You will be wet and hiking to a waterfall.

Take a 15-minute group hike to unveil the mesmerizing Ben' Bluff waterfall, a true spectacle of nature's beauty. Gaze in awe or capture memories. Following your waterfall interlude, the group will hike out, picking up your rubber tube along the way, to the visitors center, where you'll savor a delicious lunch.
