Belize offers two landscapes so different, yet equally captivating, that experiencing both feels like discovering two sides of the same story. With our Jungle & Island Vacation Package, you’ll spend time in the depths of the Maya Forest at Chan Chich Lodge before heading out to the turquoise waters of Turneffe Atoll with a stay at Turneffe Flats. From ancient plazas hidden beneath towering trees to coral reefs teeming with marine life, this package is a journey into the very heart of Belize’s natural beauty.
Two Destinations, One Story of Discovery
In the Jungle: Chan Chich Lodge
There’s something elemental about the rainforest. At Chan Chich, guests get to step into a living, breathing ecosystem that has persisted across millennia. You’ll walk trails that wind past old growth trees, orchids, and bromeliads. You’ll paddle lagoons by canoe at dusk, horse through leafy ridgelines, and take nighttime drives in search of ocelots, jaguars, and tapirs. The lodge sits above a 3,000-year-old Maya archaeological site, surrounded by a reserve spanning half a million acres. This is a place where history, wildlife, and conservation converge.
Chan Chich also houses Belize’s only coffee plantation, a demonstration of sustainable agroforestry practices that have shaped lives around Gallon Jug for decades.
On the Water: Turneffe Flats
Switching pace, Turneffe Flats offers an entirely different kind of escape: sun-drenched saltwater, swaying palms, flats fishing, snorkeling, and sea breezes. It’s an immersive marine adventure across the Turneffe Atoll, one of Belize’s premier marine environments. Guests may explore coral reefs, glide past mangroves, or search for dolphins, rays, and manatees.
The contrast between land and sea—dense jungle undergrowth and the open blue reef—makes this package special. Each day brings new textures, colors, and rhythms: from forest floor to reef drop-off.
