Maya Temples to the Caribbean
Belize and Guatemala will enchant you. From Maya temples to jungle trails, the thrill dives deep. Like a plunge into the Caribbean, reemerging with the call of the toucan and the beat of the Garifuna's drum. Days filled with wonders that stop you in your tracks—or your flippers, as the case may be. We're thrilled to have you and your family join us.
Highlights
- Hike and bike through rural towns and forests into Tikal National Park, where Maya pyramids abound
- Experience Belize and Guatemala's rich blend of cultures, from Garifuna to Mennonites and Maya
- Snorkel and float above the world's second-largest barrier reef, where tropical fish and sea life will astound
- Dine on delicious Caribbean specialties like conch fritters, fry jacks and fresh spiny lobster

What's Included

We want to make sure you're on the trip that's right for you. Every Backroads trip is unique and this one is no exception.
On this trip we occasionally travel by single-engine or turbo-prop plane to reach the exclusive hotels and activities this destination has to offer. We will be flying on both private chartered and scheduled flights with Tropic Air aboard Airvan, Caravan and turbo-prop planes that seat 6–14 passengers.
This trip includes two international border crossings: from Belize to Guatemala and back again. Even with the expert facilitation of your Backroads Trip Leaders, border crossings can take time. While patience and a sense of humor are never out of place at international customs, rest assured that we will minimize the obstacles to make these border crossings just another stop on the adventure.
In order to bring you the full splendor of this region, we spend more time shuttling on this trip than on many other Backroads trips. Our time in the shuttles allows us to experience the incredible variety of ecosystems, scenery and activities that Belize and Guatemala have to offer. Sit back and relax, knowing that someone else is doing the driving, and enjoy the beauty of the journey.
