I've never been very good at going on vacation. I think this is a common malady for us westerners, our pocket Google-boxes give us access to work and home emails even as we sit sipping a rum drink thousands of miles away. Especially working as a trip planner my mind is always buzzing on vacation, trying to remember how long the flight took, are there a lot of taxi's around, what is the situation with money. It can be a little difficult for me to enjoy the moment and really soak it all in. Belize gave me just the reprieve I was looking for.
Though wifi is widely available throughout the country and I could have easily plugged in and kept my mind running with mental notes, the whole feel of Belize encourages you to stop and enjoy. Part of this has to do with how very easy travel in Belize actually is. Because the country relies so heavily on tourism for the local economy Belize is built for ease.
What is the situation with money? USD and Credit Cards widely accepted. Easy Peasy
How do I communicate? National language is English. Done
Where should I go to eat? Literally anywhere - okay, I'll expand on this in another post, but really its hard to go wrong.
How do I get around? 15-20 minute flights link up most sections of the country with numerous departures per day or if you're not going to far, catch one of the numerous taxis. No problem
The best part of Belize is just how easy everything felt. I didn't spend much time worrying about my excursions or pick up times because just being in Belize felt like a breath of fresh air. I was so busy enjoying each moment that I often even forgot to take pictures or any notes at all and I hope that is everyone's experience when they visit Belize. Sit back, relax and enjoy - you know you want to.
Very well ececuted. Hily recomended. Great experiance

I've worked with Adventure Life before in planning trips and appreciate the quality of trips they put together. They use knowledgeable local guides, comfortable lodgings, and assist with transportation. I find trip planning stressful, so am happy to turn it over to them. They work within our parameters of time, budget, activity level, and types of activities to give us great experiences!

We have been working with Adventure Life for 5 years now and it is very easy to plan out our trips. Our holidays include customization of activities and side trips along with the standard packages available on the Adventure Life website. Kevin, Jess, Mary Rose and their teams have many recommendations that have enhanced our travel.

We went to the Patagonia on the Chile side and Perito Moreno in El Calafate, Argentina. Eric of San Diego handled our trip with expertise. The preparation went smoothly, despite some changes on our part with scheduling conflicts. He offered great advice which made us feel at ease with all decisions on the trip. It was truly a great experience.
