Belize is a part of the "Ruta Maya". A couple of years ago, it was the only route to go from Flores to Mexico, but nowadays you can also go to Palenque instead. We went through Belize to Mexico, so here's a report on the 2 places we stopped: San Ignacio just over the border, and Caye Caulker a nice little island to relax. Belize was in my opinion not as nice as Guatemala.

Hotel Central has a friendly English owner.The rooms are spacious and have common private bathroom. It has a balcony with hammock. It costs 22 B$ for a double, but it was full when we arrived around noon. We went to Hotel Venus which is a large block full of rooms. Only rooms 10 and 16 have a window.

Caye Caulker, Belize

For Caye Caulker, you can take a speedboat from Belize City. When you arive in BC by bus, you will be hassled by taxi drivers who will tell you it's unsafe to walk there, so we got persuaded to take a taxi, they charge 2 to 3 US$, but you can do it on foot. The speedboats leave between 10 and 11 am, but there are other departures as well, and you can now find boats till 5 pm. It's safe to leave your luggage on the boat and have a walk in town. They charge 15 B$.
