Daydreaming of swimming in these Natural Pools… Belize needs to be added to this list!

Witness and experience the ultimate adventure as it evolves before you; step into a time that is seldom mentioned or appreciated. Join biologist and environmentalist Sharon Matola – founding director of the Belize Zoo and tropical education center – for an opportunity to enjoy the raw beauty of the elusive jaguars of Belize. Schedule a private consultation with Rosario Panti, granddaughter of the world renowned healer Don Elijio Panti and now the region’s last Mayan Shaman. Follow this enlightening meeting with a holistic, Mayan healing massage and energy work to relax the mind and ease away the tensions of everyday life. Travel back in time with Rosalio Penados, an 83 year old chilclero as he recounts the joys, as well as the struggles, of harvesting chicle in the heart of the jungle of Old Belize.

Fly over large expanses of jungle and drive into the scenic highlands of the Chiquibul Forest to Caracol (“The Snail”), the center of the ancient Maya empire. With prominent archaeologist Dr. Jaime Awe as your personal guide, climb Caan (“Sky Place”), the tallest structure in Belize – ancient or modern – capped by three temples that rises over 140 feet above the jungle canopy, giving you an uninhibited view of the surrounding mountains. Offering unique memories of a civilization that once was, explore and behold the beauty of the past preserved for us to revere sprinkled with art, culture and a hint of mystery.

In February of this year, Ka’ana teamed up with the Heart & Soul Charitable Fund in their efforts to lend a helping hand to those less fortunate and at risk- something near and dear to the Ka’ana family. The team at Ka’ana put together a 5 day itinerary aimed at exposing the traveler to Belize to an experience that is authentic, culturally interesting, and life-changing. We called it the Ultimate Belize Adventure and donated the package to be auctioned at Christie’s in New York.We were able to raise US$8,000 for the charity and in 2 weeks 2 visitors to Belize will begin their own Ultimate Belize Adventure.

We can’t wait!
