JOIN US ON THIS WINTER GETAWAY IN 2026
SMALL GROUP SIZE OF 22
Nestled along the Caribbean Sea in the northeastern corner of Central America sits a country that beckons beachgoers, history buffs, and nature lovers alike. How does one tiny nation hit this travel trifecta? Well, Belize is home to one of the world’s healthiest barrier reefs, archaeological sites once at the center of Mayan civilization, and a lush rainforest. We could go on, but we’ll let those views and the local culture on this small group Adventure Tour do the talking. If you aren’t quite ready to stop listening, stretch your trip a few more days by adding the extension to neighboring Guatemala, and let the twin Pre-Columbian cities of Yaxha and Tikal awe you.
