Summary
If we had to describe the Belizean pace it would be somewhere between slowly rolling waves and the inquisitive speed of a ruin explorer. Embracing just that mix of curious and chill, this nine-day itinerary will let you tour Mayan ruins, cycle around stunning islands, and enjoy plenty of time to hang out on the beach. Be speedy, or a bit sloth-like — we’ll help you discover Central America either way.
Itinerary

Belize City

Customer reviews & ratings
We packed in the beach and jungle, temples and boats, two countries in eight days all in one trip. It was a whirlwind with little down time but I?m so thankful I had this group and our guide to experience it with. Price and variety of available tours
Amelia Sep, 2024 VerifiedIt was a life changing experience for me. I really liked our group, we were only 7 people and it made us really close. I loved the activities: Tikal, ATM cave, cave tubing, snorkeling. I loved the jungle walks that we did in some activities (ex: walk in the jungle to go to Tikal). It was nice to be in Caye Caulker at the end of the trip, because we could relax a bit. I really liked this trip and would recommend it to anyone who likes adventures! The trip was very well organized, the CEO (Gill) was very friendly, considerate and made us feel safe. I love that we had a good mix of planned activities, and free time.
