Belize & Guatemala

San Ignacio & Caye Caulker, Belize + Tikal Guatemala

June 29- July 4, 2023
Trip Price: $1,895.

Take advantage of the long holiday weekend! Our new Belize itinerary includes the jungle and the islands! First you’ll head to San Ignacio where we’ll cross the border to Guatemala to visit the Tikal Mayan ruins. Then we’ll transfer to the tiny island of Caye Caulker where you will relax on the shore, wander around town, and take an optional catamaran trip to snorkel along the reef.  No shoes are needed on this island with no paved streets.  We’ll celebrate with our very own Floaty Fest at the Split, the ultimate in Sunday Funday.  We save the best for last and take our catamaran sail and snorkel on the last day to visit Hol Chan Marine Park. 

This split-stay itinerary includes 2 nights in San Igancio, and 3 nights on Caye Caulker.  We’ll see the best of both Belize worlds- from the jungle to the islands.

Fly in/out of BZE airport.
