Altun Ha, a significant Mayan archaeological site near Belize City, is readily accessible via car or tour bus, typically within an hour's drive from the city. While the main pathways are relatively flat, exploring the site involves walking on uneven ground and climbing steep structures, making full accessibility for mobility-impaired visitors challenging. Though independent visits are possible, a guided tour is highly recommended to fully appreciate the rich history and cultural significance of the ruins. The site is open year-round, with the dry season (December-May) offering more comfortable conditions, though the rainy season provides lush greenery. Expect an entrance fee of around $5-10 USD, with guided tours often ranging from $50-100+ USD including transportation. A typical visit to explore the main plazas and temples lasts about 2-3 hours, not including travel. Visitors should bring water, insect repellent, sunscreen, and comfortable footwear, and consider combining a visit with other nearby attractions.
