The tour to the Mayan ruins by Guatamela is great. You can climb the pyramid and the ruin area is in the middle of the jungle, reached only by hand cranked raft. I really do not know the spelling but is is something like Xanichantlich and is on most tours called Mayans and Marimbas. the tour is a full day but well worth it. The ruins have many once in lifetime sights: the pyramid, a Mayan ball court, etc. I agree with the other posts that Belize city is not a nice place and even our tour on the bus said so. the tour to the ruins goes through the city and you get to see it - abject poverty is rampant. the outlying countryside is beautiful and the jungle is very interesting.
