Overview

Prepare yourself for an exhilarating adventure that combines the beauty of the jungle with the excitement of river tubing on our Jaguar Preserve Hike & River Tubing tour. This unique experience seamlessly merges the serenity of a nature hike with the thrill of floating down the South Stann Creek River, making it a perfect getaway for both nature lovers and thrill-seekers.

Your journey begins with a guided hike through the vibrant, dense rainforest. As you navigate one of the preserve’s 19 trails, each varying in intensity, you’ll be surrounded by an incredible variety of flora and fauna. The sounds of the jungle will immerse you in the natural world, offering glimpses of the wildlife that makes this area so special.

The hike culminates at the river, where your tubing adventure begins. Equipped with tubes and life vests, you’ll float along the South Stann Creek River for about 45 minutes to an hour, depending on the water levels. The gentle current will carry you through scenic views of the jungle, allowing you to relax and take in the lush surroundings as you drift downstream.

After the tubing experience, the adventure continues with a short hike to Ben’s Bluff Waterfall. This picturesque spot offers a perfect place to cool off with a refreshing swim in its natural pool, surrounded by towering trees and the sounds of cascading water.

Throughout the tour, you’ll also learn about the rich history of the world’s first jaguar preserve, established in 1986. A visit to the Jaguar Research and Education Centre provides insight into ongoing conservation efforts, while the South Stann Creek River Trail showcases the unique local uses of medicinal plants found along the way.

Adding a touch of history to the adventure, you may encounter remnants of a single-engine Cessna plane wreck and old research cages, tangible reminders of the area’s past. The preserve itself is a legacy of the local community, who were relocated in 1985 to create this vital conservation area. Their commitment to preserving this ecosystem lives on in the thriving wildlife and lush landscape.

Join us for a day of excitement, education, and natural beauty on the Jaguar Preserve Hike & River Tubing tour. Whether you’re hiking through the jungle, floating down the river, or enjoying a swim beneath a waterfall, this adventure promises unforgettable moments in the heart of nature.
