Transportation to Mountain Equestrian Trails
Mountain Equestrian Trails will pick up guests at the International Airport. This is inexpensive for 4 to 9 passengers and it is also the most convenient as you are less likely to wait for another plane or group of passengers to arrive. We can stop at the Belize Zoo either on our way to or from Mountain Equestrian Trails. Entrance fees to the Zoo are not included in the price of the transfer.

Bus to San Ignacio and Georgeville
On arrival at the airport take a taxi to the bus terminal in Belize City. Rates are approximately $5 US per person and schedules vary on weekends and holidays. Catch any one of the hourly buses leaving for San Ignacio and Georgeville. Please phone 669.1124 from the bus station to let us know approximately what time you will be boarding. Get off the bus at Georgeville where we will pick you up (see transfer rates). It takes about 25 minutes to get to the Mountain Equestrian Trails from Georgeville.

Rental Cars
Rates are variable from $80 to $100+ per day. There is an advantage in the flexibility of having your own car. The disadvantage is in not having a knowledgeable guide and driver along with you to explain the highlights of your drive, and to ensure that you stop at the most interesting places. If you choose to rent, we recommend renting a 4-wheel drive vehicle.

How to get to Mountain Equestrian Trails
Take the Western Highway from Belize City and drive approximately 62 miles. Watch for the ‘Caesar's Place’ sign; the next village will be Georgeville. Turn left on Mountain Pine Ridge Road (Our sign is on the left side of Western Highway) and drive 8 miles (a gravel road and the going is usually very slow). Allow 30+ minutes to get to Mountain Equestrian Trails from Georgeville watching for our ‘Blue Morpho butterfly’ sign on the left at mile 8, then 3/4 of a mile in turn left. Please park where directed by the signs.
