Guided Private Tour

Balam Trail Ride

Hop on a bike and explore the jungle trails around Tayasal at a pace that works for you. This private guided ride blends easygoing dirt paths, nature, and cool local stops into a fun couple of hours outdoors.

About the Tour

The Balam Trail Ride is designed for anyone comfortable on a bicycle who wants to experience the local nature on two wheels. We cross over to the Tayasal peninsula to ride through forest trails, stop by high lookouts with great views of the lake, and check out key points along the way. Because this tour is strictly private, you will never have to worry about keeping up with strangers or feeling rushed. If your group is cruising fast, we can easily add extra miles of nearby trails to keep the legs moving. If you prefer a slower, more laid-back ride, we take our time enjoying the main loop before wrapping up with a cold drink.
