Gourmet Green & Blue
Absolute Belize has crafted a gourmet tailor made voyage that takes you through the pristine Caribbean waters on a luxury yacht, into the lush rainforests of the Toledo district, where your destination is an agro-eco-chic retreat perched high in the jungle canopy.
The journey begins on your own private luxury 50ft catamaran, with just your skipper to raise the sails and your private chef to cook the catch. Sail to the most exclusive and untouched private islands that dot the barrier reef. Swim, snorkel, kayak, fish, spot dolphins or simply relax – you pick the tempo. The culinary highlights include collecting your conch and making your own ceviche, spearfishing lobster with your guide (when in season), followed by a seafood cooking master class with your private chef.
After journeying south to the Toledo District, you will be met by speedboat at your yacht and transported up the Rio Grande to the stunning Copal Tree Lodge, one of the leading eco-hotels on the planet. With resident artisans, farmers and foragers on site, the métier at Copal Tree is about producing the best tasting food and drink the earth can produce, in a way that provides a clear path from farm to table.
Jungle experiences include clambering through cave networks, visiting ancient Mayan sites, swimming in waterfalls, meeting the local Mayan communities in their villages and learning about the history and culture of the region. Complete your epicurean and sensory immersion with a bean to bar chocolate making class and a rum immersion with the resident Copal Tree artisans.
