If you’ve never thought about Belize for a Journeys International vacation, think again. This small country nestled between Mexico and Guatemala is an easy flight from the United States, and with a population density of only 35 people per square mile, offers an abundance of jungles, wildlife reserves, flora and fauna, not to mention the largest cave system in Central America.
Journeys International has already built three amazing Belize itineraries, including one specifically for families. But we’re never done exploring at Journeys, so we are going back for more. Later this week, staff members Lené and Sally will arrive in Belize for a whirlwind tour aimed at meeting the most knowledgeable guides, seeing the new and improved lodges and resorts, adventuring into unknown places by horseback, rappel, canoe, and foot, all with the goal of putting together yet another fantastic itinerary for savvy and curious Journeys travelers.
