Marcus is a veteran guide as well and is EMT and Rescue trained. I have known Marcos for years through his help with our yearly cave mapping expeditions to western Belize.

Marcos met me and my wife and from the beginning we knew we were in good hands. Ask all the questions you have, you will receive... More

Marcos & Francis are most definitely the best guides in Belize, we spent two wonderful days with MGA Tours & couldn't have wished for better guides to spend it with. We consider meeting Marcos, Francis & the experience we had the highlight of our 3 week trip. The Cave kayaking was simply an unforgettable day and not to be missed.... More
