Marcos Cucul
Manager - Belize Adventure Expeditions
Marcos grew up in the Toledo District in Southern Belize learning the subsistent living and medicinal secrets of the jungle, he later learned to grow cacao, raised cattle and began his personal quest for a more modern and developed Central Belize. At that time Belize’s Tourism Industry was on its infant steps and the exposure to foreigners and the world out there was only through the few adventurous back-packers and the presence of British troops permanently stationed in Belize. Having very little political support, a very difficult to traverse Southern Highway and with the majority of population being Maya, the Toledo District became known as the forgotten District. Marcos ventured away from home.
