JUNGLE LODGE IN POOK’S HILL, CAYO

THE RAINFOREST IS YOUR HOME

In the very heart of the ethereal jungle of Belize, Pook’s Hill is home to hundreds of species of Belizan wildlife.

You are, after all, in the midst of Belize’s dense rainforest – home to an astonishing variety of wildlife. Over 300 different species of tropical birds flit through the canopy or drop down to glistening streams to drink and feed.

Mature mahogany trees, Spanish cedar, ceiba and a proliferation of bushes and ferns are the natural habitat of buzzing insects, iguanas, tapir, jaguars, howler monkeys, humming birds, spectacled owls, emerald toucanets…

And you. If you’re staying at Pook’s Hill, the rainforest is your home. This jungle lodge borders the Roaring River and Tapir Mountain Nature Reserve. It’s the ideal setting if you like your wildlife exploration and want to discover the rich Mayan, Caracol and Tikal archaeological heritage of Belize.

“TRIP TO THE TOP OF THE WORLD”

Everything about our trip was excellent. While it’s a considered investment, the service more than justifies the cost. We loved the accommodation – beautifully chosen and thoughtfully located. Our guides ranged from grear to truly exceptional. And the places we visited? They exceeded all expectations. Peru is an extraordinarily beautiful country, and this journey gave us a real sense of its wonder.

“THREE HOLIDAYS IN AND STILL HIGHLY RECOMMEDED”

Dan Mills organised perfectly a challenging itinerary to incorporate a wedding we were attending in Kathmandu. A fantastic balance of trekking, rafting, safari, sightseeing and R&R. This was our third holiday with Ultimate Travel and we cannot recommend highly enough

“SERVICE THAT GOES THE EXTRA MILE”

The service we received from 91�� was second to none. Tania took the time to understand exactly what we wanted and helped us explore every option clearly and thoroughly. Her first-hand knowledge of Kenya and safaris made a real difference – she explained everything brilliantly. The thoughtful extras, like the travel wallet and documents, were such a lovely touch – especially for someone who loves to travel well-organised! Thank you so much. We’ll definitely be back for future adventures.
