Epic Central America — 28 Day

Set off across Mexico, Belize and Guatemala on a 28-day journey that pulls together some of Central America’s most stirring landscapes and cultural treasures. You’ll move from jungle-framed temples and lively colonial streets to coral reefs alive with colour, with plenty of time to soak up the heat, the sounds and the easy rhythm of the region along the way.

Snorkel or dive in the clear waters off Belize, stand before ancient Mayan pyramids rising from the green, and take in the drama of smoking volcanoes and highland views in Guatemala. With an experienced group leader and a small crew of like-minded travellers beside you, this is the kind of trip that feels as rewarding as it is full-on. If you’re keen for a proper Central American adventure with a mix of wild nature, deep history and good company, this is the one to lock in.

Know before you go: - This is a 28-day trip across multiple countries, so pack light and choose comfortable luggage you can carry yourself. - Bring warm-weather clothing, sturdy walking shoes, swimwear and a hat for hot days, plus a light layer for cooler highland evenings. - A reusable water bottle, reef-safe sunscreen and insect repellent will come in handy for both jungle and coastal stops. - Check your passport well ahead of departure and make sure it’s valid for the full trip, with any necessary visas arranged before you travel. - Expect a mix of early starts, road travel and active days, so a reasonable level of fitness will help you enjoy the journey more comfortably.
