The Mayan ruins of Tikal in Autumn.

Experience a fantastic combination of ancient cultures and amazing wildlife on this varied and interesting trip across Guatemala and Belize. Starting off in the beautiful colonial city of Antigua, we will explore the Mayan villages and markets of the volcano-studded Guatemalan highlands and cross stunning Lake Atitlan. The magical ruined city of Tikal offers a complete contrast to this mountain scenery, with steep stone pyramids poking out of the thick lowland jungle. Over the border in Belize, the lush rainforest is home to a huge variety of mammals, including jaguars, tapirs and monkeys. The trip ends with time on the beautiful beaches and reefs of the Caribbean, perfect for relaxation and snorkelling.
