Nestled along the Caribbean Sea, Belize beckons with a true travel trifecta: one of the world’s biggest barrier reefs, archaeological sites central to Mayan civilization, and jungles as lush as they are biodiverse. Experience all of it in a matter of days as you hike, tube, and snorkel your way across this Central American paradise. And if you aren’t ready to call time on your getaway, extend your trip into neighboring Guatemala and let the Pre-Columbian cities of Yaxha and Tikal awe you.
