Y
es, the words "Belize" and "budget" can
go together. Belize is one of the fastest
growing countries for American travelers
this year, and vacation costs are down by
close to 9 percent compared to last year
due to this surge. Many tour companies are
offering affordable trips that showcase the
country's culture, and new airline route are
driving fares down due to competition.
Formally known as British Honduras
Belize is located in Central America. This
tiny country just below Mexico, east of
Guatemla and north of Honduras on the
Western edge of the Caribbean Sea, boasts
an impressive array of jewels. Pristine
shorelines and dense jungle, to a massive
barrier reef all while dotting
hundreds of low-lying
islands called cayes. This
country is rich in marine
life. Belize's jungle areas are
also home to Myan ruins
such as Caraco.
Look at the areas of Cayne Caulker,
Placencia, Peninsula and Dangriga for
lower hotel prices and food in comparison
to San Pedro. And of course all-inclusive is
also an option for Belize as well.
