Summary

Insider advice on visiting rugged wilderness preserves, sleepy beach towns, and spectacular Mayan ruins. There are adventures here to suit all interests: swooping from treetop platform to treetop platform on a canopy tour, taking a dip in a jungle swimming hole, spotting playful spider monkeys as you hike through lush foliage, or snorkeling at Shark-Ray Alley. Where to find some of the country's oldest--and most amazing--Mayan ruins, including Tikal and Caracol. Insightful commentary on Belize's culture and history, plus a dedicated guide to outdoor activities and wildlife. Opinionated reviews. No bland descriptions and lukewarm recommendations. Our expert writers are passionate about their destinations--they tell it like it is in an engaging and helpful way.
