Itinerary
Fly to Belize City
Orange Walk District, Belizean Jungle, Belize
Begin your Belizean adventure completely off-grid at the charmingly rustic Lamanai Outpost Lodge. This is one of those unique places that simply cannot be missed, especially if you are into your wildlife, you’ll be left with unforgettable memories. Don’t forget your binoculars as you embark on sunrise walks to spot monkeys and toucans whilst listening to the jungle waking up. Discover the remnants of a 3000-year-old Maya city, just moments from the lodge. Take sunset canoe expeditions to view manatees, crocodiles and otters or after dinner head out into the night on a jungle-riverboat, armed with a flashlight in search of nocturnal creatures. With three nights here, you'll have ample opportunity to fully immerse yourself into the jungle setting and meet with its inhabitants.

Hopkins, Belize
Surrounded by tropical flora and fauna, Hamanasi is the perfect combination of reef and rainforest, offering both adventure and relaxation. The lush tropical gardens combined with the beautiful long stretches of white sand, turquoise waters, and swaying palm trees makes it feel like you are staying in the garden of Eden.
There are great birdwatching opportunities in the area, look out for southern sting rays whilst you take walks along the beach, swim with sea turtles just mere metres away from your sun lounger, jump in a kayak and paddle down waterways teeming with wildlife (including crocodiles) or head deeper into the jungle for more adrenaline inducing zip-lining or enjoy a history tour at the ruins of Xunantunich.
Accommodation: Hamanasi Resort ( 3 nights )
Ambergris Caye, Ambergris Caye & Private Islands, Belize
After all this excitement and adventure, it's now time to head to the beach for a healthy dose of relaxation.

A few days at the elegantly luxurious Victoria House is just what everyone needs after a week spent exploring Belize’s wilderness.
Spend your last few days simply lounging around on sumptuous daybeds beside the inviting swimming pool whilst sipping on a fruity cocktail and finishing your holiday read. Grab a mask and snorkel and dive off the pier, opportunities to swim with nurse sharks, sting and eagle rays as well as moray eel and trumpet fish will make for an incredible marine experience. Enjoy delicious fresh seafood (the grilled lobster is a must) at the hotel restaurant and take full advantage of the hotel's spectacular service.
