It’s an excursion just to get to Lamanai.  Planes, Shuttles and Boats!  Start the day with a scenic ride from San Pedro to the mainland.  Enjoy the tropical water and the jungle canopy views.  A shuttle bus escorts you to your boat.  On your 1+ hour boat ride up the New River note the abundant orchids,  and you’ll likely see American Crocodiles along the shoreline and a variety of birds as well.  Look for howler monkeys as you leave Laminai.  Lamanai is located at the edge of a lush forest reserve.  The walk from one structure to the next is short and not strenuous.  You have the option of climbing to the top of a couple of the structures for some nice views of the river and landscape.
