Belize is famous for its Caribbean beaches and turquoise sea. But that is just the beginning. The little jewel of a country is the premier snorkeling and scuba diving destination of the Americas and home to several acclaimed marine and inland national parks. The country’s 400 km coastline boasts the world’s second-largest coral reef, hundreds of offshore atolls, and small tropical islets known as Cayes.

Wild and lush rainforests dominate the scenery in the northwest, brimming with exotic wildlife, mystical rivers, and mysterious Mayan ruins awaiting exploration. Visitors can choose from an exciting menu of eco-adventures, including whitewater rafting, hiking, off-roading, and of course, snorkeling and scuba diving.



Belize’s past and present cultural heritage is monumental. Once the center of the Mayan Civilization, the country is home to dozens of pre-Colombian archaeological sites, including Actun Tunichil Muknal, the resting place of the Crystal Maiden, and Altun Ha, where the famous Jade Head was unearthed.

Today’s Belize reveals a melting pot of ethnicities from around the globe. The rhythms of Creole, Mestizo, Garifuna, Maya, Spanish, and English cultures form one heartbeat whose cadence is evident in the nation’s warm hospitality, music, and cuisine.

Guest Testimonial: Our recent travelers shared a story that perfectly embodies our Crowd Avoidance Philosophy, curating moments where intimacy, authenticity, and exclusivity shine. Here’s a glimpse into their unforgettable adventure:

Tortuga Lodge: A first-time experience like no other! With its warm, friendly staff and intimate group activities, they felt a sense of connection with nature and fellow travelers. The Florentina Villa’s unique design, exceptional dining, and thrilling guided tours (twilight walk, Jaguar Trail hike, and kayaking!) created memories they’ll never forget.

Traveling by plane between destinations added comfort and ease—showcasing how seamless Costa Rica can be when planned with intention.

Santa Teresa: Despite rainy skies, they embraced the bohemian vibes. Ziplining was a thrilling “one-and-done” adventure, and a local guide, Carlos, turned their day into something magical with a surprise trip to Montezuma for an authentic lunch experience.

Beach picnic: A true hidden gem! From passionate guides to a stunning sunset and the bioluminescence experience , the day unfolded like a dream. The kids loved the hermit crabs, snorkeling, and a picture-perfect spread of local treats prepared by the boat captain’s wife.

What makes this trip so special was balance of personalization, local charm, and experiences away from the crowds. It gave us the chance to embraced Costa Rica’s soul through intimate lodges, passionate guides, and off-the-beaten-path adventures.

Mascarada Nacional: Costa Rica’s Halloween Twist!

While many think of costumes and candy this season, here in Costa Rica, we celebrate with colorful masks, lively music, and spirited dances in our Mascarada Nacional! 🥁✨

Rooted deeply in Costa Rican culture, this tradition honors the talented mascareros (mask makers) who bring larger-than-life figures to each celebration. Crafted from paper, these vibrant masks showcase gigantes — characters ranging from mischievous devils to mythical figures from Costa Rican folklore.

The festivities come alive with the comparsas and cimarronas—local street bands that lead the parades with bold beats, brass sounds, and energy that can be felt through every street. Whether you’re watching a parade or dancing alongside these lively figures, the Mascarada Nacional is all about community, laughter, and celebrating our unique heritage that extends through many central, south and North America.

Guests testimonial 🪄 ✨

The trip was absolutely amazing. It exceeded all of our expectations and we’re so grateful for the work you put in. Each hotel was stunning and unique in its own way. It’s hard to pick a favorite but if we had to we would probably pick the Four Seasons because of the stunning location and we are huge beach people. One of our favorite activities was at the Nayara in Bocas del Toro where we visited an indigenous community. We also loved the cooking class in La Fortuna.

Every event, ride, activity, etc. was ran perfectly and set up spectacularly. Thank you and travel pioneers for everything, it was truly an unforgettable trip.

Our only question is when can we go back!

Thank you,
