Belize Horseback Riding Adventures

Banana Bank Lodge  Horseback Riding and All-Inclusive Packages

Equestrian Express and Trailblazer are our popular horseback riding packages. We are the leading horseback riding destination in Belize and with 4000 acres of terrain and over 100 horses we can offer riding for every level of experience.  We also offer moonlight rides - a favorite!

EQUESTRIAN EXPRESS PACKAGE - 4 days and 3 nights
Day 1:You'll be met at the Airport for your transfer to Banana Bank Jungle Lodge. If you arrive on an early flight you might want to visit the Belize Zoo or Old Belize. When you get to your horseback adventure spot at Banana Bank, you can tour the grounds and get acquainted with our local wildlife. Soon dinner will be served family style, providing perfect time and setting to meet your hosts and the other guests.
Day 2:After breakfast you select and get to know your new friend (your horse). We'll start our with some pointers in the round pen and arena and after lunch we'll take you to a challenging ride to Tiger Creek. Then we'll wind down at dusk with a relaxing stop at the Birding Tower by the lagoon. Take your binoculars to see some of the 210 species of birds identified.
Day 3:By now you've probably bonded with your horse and have honed your skills and horsemanship. Our wrangler will provide tips and pointers as you ride. Your afternoon trail experience will take you through more jungle along the river and through teak trees and fields of corn or beans. If you like we'll stop for a river swim before heading back for an evening of relaxation, chats about the day and another great meal.
Day 4:In case you didn't get enough riding in, you may choose to do a short aloha ride (we hate to say goodbye). If there's time you can stop for a tour on the way back to the airport or wherever you wish to go within our transfer range.

DAY 1 (Saturday)You'll be met at the Airport for your transfer to Banana Bank Jungle Lodge. If you arrive on an early flight you might want to visit the Belize Zoo or Old Belize. When you get to your horseback adventure spot at Banana Bank, you can tour the grounds and get acquainted with our own local wildlife. (It's a jungle out there!) Soon dinner will be served family style, providing perfect time and setting to meet your hosts and the other guests.
DAY 2 (Sunday)After breakfast you select and get to know your new friend (your horse). We'll start our with some pointers in the round pen and arena and after lunch we'll take you to a challenging ride to Tiger Creek. Then we'll wind down at dusk with a relaxing stop at the Birding Tower by the lagoon. Take your binoculars to see some of the 210 species of birds identified.
DAY 3 (Monday)By now you've probably bonded with your horse and have honed your skills and horsemanship. Our wrangler will provide tips and pointers as you ride. Your afternoon trail experience will take you through more jungle along the river and through teak trees and fields of corn or beans. If you like we'll stop for a river swim before heading back for an evening of relaxation, chats about the day and another great meal.
DAY 4 (Tuesday)With the new skills you've learned, you may want to try out a more challenging horse, but if you want to stick with your buddy, that's okay too. Today we'll do the Maya Trail and Colorado Lagoon stopping for a picnic lunch on the way. This trail will test your endurance a bit but it's worth it for the true jungle experience. The staff is preparing you a hearty meal back at the lodge and a good night's sleep will refresh you for the day ahead.
DAY 5 (Wednesday)Today we're off to Roaring River Cave. We'll ride through the village of Roaring Creek and explore a seldom visited cave where you'll see ancient artifacts and feel an exquisite Mayan presence. We'll break for lunch at wonderful swimming hole so be sure to take your swimming suit. The water's quite clear and you might want to bring along a snorkel mask too. Chill back at the ranch with dinner and conversation.
DAY 6 (Thursday)For a change in pace, we'll take you down the Belize River in the skiff where you'll be guided through Guanacaste Park.The part is famous for it's 10 foot diameter tree and multitude of birds). Iguanas dart along the paths and scamper up the trees while you observe hundreds of botanic wonders. After lunch back at the dinning room, and an afternoon of relaxing we'll saddle up for a sunset ride.
DAY 7 (Friday)This is gonna be fun! This morning you'll test your skills and speed on the obstacle course, and we'll have a little barrel race competition. You will be awarded with a certificate of achievement, and an opportunity to win a prize. Lunch will be either at the ranch or in town depending on time and weather. The afternoon will be spent driving down the Western Highway to historic town of San Ignacio. We'll stop at the Butterfly Farm and Belize's most visited and best restored Maya ruin, Xunantunich which is Mayan for 'Maiden of the Rocks'.
DAY 8 (Saturday)In case you didn't get enough riding in, you may choose to do a short aloha ride (we hate to say goodbye). If there's time you can stop for a tour on the way back to the airport or wherever you wish to go within our transfer range.
