Itinerary Description |
A paradise bathed in sunlight is waiting for you on this trip to Belize! The fun kicks off in San Ignacio, where each day brings new and exciting surprises. A welcome dinner and a canoeing tour will set the scene before we journey into the past with visits to the Mayan city of Xunantunich and the Mayan ritual cave of Actun Tunichil Muknal. The second half of the trip will then be on dreamy San Pedro Island, where a catamaran excursion and a relaxed golf cart drive will show off the area's marine beauty. This is a journey that is equal parts thrilling and serene, so enjoy! |
