    So much was smooth and efficient about the water taxi from Belize City to Caye Caulker. It was on time, clean and safe. This was our first time taking the water taxi.

    As first timers, sadly, we were a bit confused. When we got off the boat, we wondered about our luggage. There was no signage or anyone guiding us to where to pick the luggage up. It would have been helpful to have this information, either before we boarded or after we got off. Ultimately, we found the structure where luggage was disbursed. We waited on line, produced our baggage claim tickets and retrieved our luggage.

    Happy that San Pedro Express Water Taxi got us and our luggage to our destination safe and sound.

    Easy ride to Caye Caulker! About $39 US. Scenic ride. Quiet. The terminal is nice. Grab an iced coffee before you go. Ride is about an hour.

    We were very impressed by how organized, punctual and effective they are with their passengers, luggage and everything else they transport to and from the islands! The boats are not big, so they can be harsh on the back in rougher seas like we had on the way to San Pedro. The way back was smooth and relaxed.
    When booking a round trip online, you don't get you choose a return date and time. This can only be picked upon checkin at the terminal. We found out though, that if you email them beforehand mentioning your rountrip reservation, they can reserve a specific date and time for the return for you. This was very important to us, as we were 4 with luggage and needed to be on a specific ferry back to the mainland...

    The terminal and port area are jammed with souvenir shops and can be toured in an hour or less if you don't dine/drink at the few seedy bars/restaurants on the pier. Prices were a bit high compared to other ports on our cruise but it is the start of the Carribbean cruise season. Best deals are end of season in late March/April. This seaport requires tendering which took about 25-30 minutes in some rough water as the winds were up and from the north northeast making the bay quite choppy--not the most comfortable ride. Spent an hour and returned to ship for lunch!

    Super easy to book online and was a smooth process when getting and returning the car. The car was reasonably priced and had no issues. I’d recommend Crystal!

    We were a family of seven adults and were comfortable in their huge spotless van. The drivers were on-time, friendly, and informative. I received quick responses to emails for scheduling and last-minute changes. The company will work with you to make arrangements according to your needs/desires. We traveled from Belize City Airport to San Ignacio, took a day trip to zipline/cavetube, drove from San Ignacio to the Belize City Water Taxi, and finally from water taxi back to airport. No complaints. Abraham was the perfect driver in all aspects.

    I can say only good things. This is a small family business with very good and friendly drivers. Always on time. Have a handy online prebooking link that you can trust. We used them several times while in Belize and they never disappointed. Denny responds very quickly via text or emails.

    Highly recommend

    Really good service from start to finish. I had read many prior reviews and was concerned about some of the very bad reviews. For us, it was a fast check in although far too many signatures required to complete the paperwork. At least the staff were very pleasant. Reasonably good car (a Chev) Only problem was the driver's side visor which flopped down. No issues at all when turning it in and this company is well priced when compared with the competition. I would not hesitate to use them again.

    Before our couple’s trip to Belize, we were searching for a private shuttle from the Mexican border to San Ignacio. What we found wasn’t just a driver, but an amazing person and a new friend in Abe Gutierrez.

    Why You Should Book with Abe:

    ✅ Affordable – Great pricing without compromising quality.
    ✅ Personal Approach – A few emails & WhatsApp messages, and everything was perfectly arranged.
    ✅ Safe & Professional – Punctual, respectful, and incredibly helpful—he takes care of everything so you don’t have to worry.
    ✅ More Than Just a Ride – The journey became a fascinating conversation where we learned so much about Belize, its culture, and its history.

    The Only Downside?

    ❌ The trips were too short! We could have kept talking and learning from Abe for hours.

    Abe is an amazing soul who genuinely cares and delivers exactly what you need—no nonsense, just top-notch service. Highly recommended!

    Muy ono was absolutely top notch - every driver and guide we had was patient, knowledgable and took excellent care of us. I was traveling alone with my teenage son and we felt so cared for. They went out of their way to make our experience perfect! Highly recommend!

    Elias cares deeply for everyone he serves. I had the privilege of riding with him by myself to pick up supplies for our trip. We had a great conversation about his heart and care for the children of Belize. He has a wonderful sense of humor and a joyous soul.

    His knowledge of the country, the roads, and the BIRDS is second-to-none! At no point did we every feel unsafe. He actually made our trip all the better.

    I look forward to working with him again in the future.

    I was in Belize in March 2021 and Judy the lady who works there was phenomenal and she made us happy. They pick you from wherever you are. They were on time and the driver that picked us from the ferry station.

    Troy was our driver from Belize City to Placencia and also from Placencia to Belize City. We didn't want to rent a car, since it was our first time in Belize, and weren't sure about driving in a foreign country. Troy was great, and obviously experienced in making the drive from BZ to Placencia (he told us he sometimes makes the trip 4 times in a day!). He drives fast, but everyone does in Belize, and he really knows the roadway. On the way there, we had a private transfer and stopped at a grocery in Belize City and for a pit stop in Dangriga. Troy told us a lot about Belize... we're really glad we did this instead of taking a puddle jumper, because we got to learn so much from Troy.

    On the way back, we booked a shared shuttle leaving from Placencia at 6:00 am, but ended up being the only passengers. We stopped for a pit stop in Dangriga, and got Johnnycakes at the gas station (highly recommended for a yummy breakfast! We made it to the airport by 9:20, with plenty of time to spare for our 12:10 flight.

    If you don't mind a fast drive, take the shuttle and see more of Belize!
