Belize and Guatemala adventure holiday







Description of Belize and Guatemala adventure holiday
This small group holiday gives you two weeks in Belize and Guatemala – next-door neighbours that span the width of Central America. You’re in good hands the whole way around, thanks to an expert guide who’ll lead you to ex-Spanish cities and rainforest hideaways.
Out west in Guatemala, you’ll explore Antigua, the one-time capital – cobbled streets and smoking volcanic backdrop included. You’ll find more peaks in volcano-ringed Lake Atitlan and Tikal, a vast Mayan city with pyramids and temples that peek out of the rainforest.
Dive deeper into the rainforest as you travel across the Belize border. A jungle lodge at Chaa Creek will be your base for a couple of nights, where you can canoe the Macal River or hike the orchid trails.

Planet
We visit and support the conservation of the National Park of Tikal. The park is also part of the Mayan Biosphere Reserve. By paying entrance fees and hiring local guides, we are encouraging the continued preservation and studies of the area and its heritage of wildlife, nature and ancient ruins.Our style of travel ensures that as many local people as possible benefit by our being there. This Belize and Guatemala adventure holiday runs with a maximum of 16 people which helps to minimise the impact on delicate environments.
People
At Lake Atitlan we visit traditional surrounding villages and are invited into the local’s homes, where we get a real insight into community life, which also bring direct benefits. We also have the opportunity of visiting and supporting a women’s weaving co-operative. Many Guatemalan’s main income is through selling crafts and produce, consequently, at Chichicastenango market and other smaller markets you can buy directly off the local people so that they benefit as much as possible.Popular similar holidays
