Cayo District
Taxis, rentals and tours in San Ignacio
San Ignacio is the heart of the Cayo district, on the Macal River in western Belize. It is the base for the Maya sites, the caves and the Mountain Pine Ridge. Ryde books licensed taxis here, lists cars and 4x4s from local rental companies, and brings Cayo's tours into the same app.
Coming January 1, 2027
Taxis in San Ignacio
Choose your pickup, whether that is your hotel, Macal River Park, Chen's Supermarket, San Ignacio Hospital or La Loma Luz Hospital, and see the fare before you book. Ryde also books from San Ignacio to Belmopan, Belize City and Benque Viejo. The whole fare goes to your driver.
Car rental in San Ignacio
A car gives you Cayo on your own time. Some of the roads to the Pine Ridge and the far ruins are rough, so look at SUVs and 4x4s as well. Choose your dates and compare each vehicle's all-in price. Rental companies are joining Ryde now: open Book to see who is listed.
Tours from San Ignacio
Xunantunich and Cahal Pech are close to town. Actun Tunichil Muknal is the cave people cross the country for, Caracol is a full day into the Chiquibul, and the Mountain Pine Ridge has the waterfalls. Tours on Ryde are run by licensed local operators: you ask for a day, the operator confirms, and you pay them on the day.
Getting to San Ignacio
San Ignacio is on the George Price Highway, west of Belmopan and close to the Guatemalan border. Ryde books the whole drive from Belize City, and a taxi can be booked up to 30 days ahead.
