Belize
Belize, the only English-speaking country in Central America, is ideally located on the Caribbean coast, between Mexico and Guatemala. It offers an intriguing mix of tropical forests rich with wildlife, majestic mountains, mysterious Maya temples, and fishing and diving experiences. In a single day, you can go from a tropical forest to the Belize River flowing down the center of the country to the longest barrier reef in the Western Hemisphere.
In Belize, Yampu’s basic tours are the Belize Highlights Tours—the Brief and Complete Tours, both of which explore the Cayo District (which contains the national capital of Belmopan) and Ambergris Caye (home to Xanadu, the first monolithic dome resort in the world). Either way, you will have the chance to learn about and see this fascinating Central American country. These tours do not have set dates of departure, and are subject to availability. This allows you to choose your own dates of travel.

The trip (to Belize), even with the rain, was amazing! Thank you & Yampu so much! There were a few things we were unable to visit/do due to the flooding (like the cave tubing & zip line) however, our guide (Lasalle, not certain of spelling), was wonderful. He was not only knowledgeable & wise; he was so personable as well. He knew the lay of the land well enough not to put us in any danger of the flooding, etc. AND where to get the best price on local goods. Also got to meet his wife, Sarita, who was a wealth of information. The Windy Hills resort was welcoming & everyone made us feel like part of their family, not to mention the clean conditions and excellent food. Smokey, a gentleman of many trades and reassured us that the rainy conditions in Belize were referred to as 'together weather' which made perfect sense to us. When we moved on to Ramon's Village, again, the lodging was comfortable, clean, and cozy...even without TV...it was wonderful. The ONLY thing that could've made the trip any better was more sunshine. However, we even enjoyed the rain (no worries). Thank you, especially, and everyone at Yampu for making our 30th anniversary in Belize so memorable. All arrangements were 'made to order'. Look forward to having more adventures through Yampu in the future! |
