Experience Overview
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.
Highlights
- Spot tropical sea life while snorkelling the world's second-largest barrier reef
- Explore the jungle-set ruins of Tikal
- Listen to reggae music as you walk down Caye Caulker's sandy main street

Lots of options for each day - sometimes too many! This trip seems to have many small details that were sometimes overwhelming when being dealt with all at once.

it's an easy way to travel - the trip is planned for you, but you still have options for excursions/activities on top of that. You get to meet new people. You get a great guide.

For folks interested in organized group travel, I would highly recommend G Adventures. Their well-structured schedule and in-trip customization/flexibility made the experience a positive one

Shobhit D., - Traveled, December 2023
It was my first G Adventures trip and I loved the overall experience of hotels & logistics provided by G and managed by our CEO Marlon Tajeda on the trip. The best part was the knowledge & cultural information shared by Marlon that enhanced the overall experience of travels in Belize and Tikal in Guatemala. Also, the minor details like getting cash from ATMs, what to wear/not wear for various activities thoruhgout the trip and food & restaurants recommendations provided by Marlon were on point. The only area of improvement would be maintaining a same level of hotels/accommodations throughout the trip and if new restaurants could be added to the list of recommendations. For eg., there is this new restaurant Shado Beny and Pasta del Caso in Caye Caulker, both of which are a gem of a place that could be added on the list of recommendations.

The trips we',ve taken (3 after the most recent) have been interesting, gritty and fun. Our guides have been great and we',ve seen places in the world we likely would not have seen on our own.

it's a great way to feel comfortable travelling on your own, and having opportunities to do things you might not if you planned a trip by yourself, without the support of a local guide.

Planning a trip is time consuming and stressful, navigating in countries with different languages and customs can also be difficult. Our CEO helped us find everything we wanted and negotiated fair prices. I particularly like the focus on supporting local businesses

removes the stress of logistics and lets you focus on the local experience. Creates an instant group that supports and encourages each other. Great trips at very reasonable prices. And every one of the 3 G Adventures trip leaders I've had over the years has been fantastic.
