Caye Caulker
Water taxis will whizz us back to the mainland across the glorious underwater playground you’ve become so well acquainted with over the last few days, landing us back in the arms of Belize City.
Belize City
It’s a super swift passing by of the beloved Belize City before we take to the road to journey across the border into yet another stunning country: Guatemala.
Tikal
This leg of the trip will see you travel overland through Guatemala’s Peten forests. This afternoon before we drop anchor at our hotel, you could zoom around the treetops like a monkey but securely attached on a zipline of course! Later on you will doze off to the tranquil sounds of the nature all around you, but in a comfy bed with all the amenities you need.

Rise early today to watch the sun stretch over the the top of the Mayan ruin Templo IV. Not a bad way to start the day, hey?
Flores
We’ll then take a guided tour of the crumbling ruins before a trip to the island of Flores, where we’ll have lunch and time for shopping before flying this afternoon to Guatemala’s capital city and then on to beautiful Antigua.
Antigua Guatemala
This place isn’t just about the dreamy scenery – there’s plenty of history to soak up too. You’ll notice colorful rooftop gardens dotted amongst the crumbling colonial buildings and you’ll hear the clip clop of the horse drawn carriages that are still a favoured form of transport today. You’ll be glad to know there are two peaceful nights planned here in the old colonial town set right beneath two massive volcanoes.
