The Orange Walk district encompasses the northern part of Belize, notable for its agricultural production and areas of dense jungle.

Lamanai & Chan Chich

For those looking to go to less accessible jungle lodges than those in Cayo and to have greater chances of spotting wildlife, both Lamanai and Chan Chich provide the perfect setting.
