The area surrounding Mérida has tons to offer. Choose to visit nearby cenotes (water sink holes) in the town of Cuzamá. Inside, swim in the massive crystal-clear sinkholes. Transportation to the cenotes is half the fun, taking small wooden horse-drawn carts along old rail tracks. Opt to visit ruins in Uxmal, ride the PUUC Route or go bird-watching. There's something for everyone. Stay: Hotel Santa Lucia by Kavia
After a long day of travel from the Yucatán to the jungles of Chiapas, arrive to Palenque and settle in for 2 nights. Stay: Hotel Maya Tulipanes

Embark on a boat ride across the lake before participating in a G Adventures-supported homestay with a local family. This area is known for stunning scenery and great shopping for Mayan handicrafts. Take part in a cultural tour of San Juan la Laguna where you can opt to bargain for colourful textiles and paintings from the local artisans. Stay: Rupalaj Kistalin Posada Homestay (D)
There is so much to do in this charming colonial city, optional activities for the area include a city tour, salsa dancing classes, a Guatemalan cooking class, or relaxing with a massage. Further afield you can rent bikes and ride through the hills, visit a macadamia nut farm or check out some nearby villages. Stay: Posada Los Bucaros

Michelle, VIC, Australia, Apr 2025
Spent an amazing 3 weeks exploring the 3 countries. Never knew of Belize before signing up for this tour and had one of the best snorkeling experience ever. Being a bit of a longer tour than the usual 2 weeks, it can get tiring towards the end but this tour really covers a lot of places and distances and much time on the road. Nevertheless, this tour ...read more is a great way to get the taste of Mexico, Guatemala and Belize. Best tacos and coffees.
It was an interesting trip, very different to what I expected. Accommodation left a lot to be desired, especially in the early part of the trip, sometimes no hot water or lukewarm, I would say 1 to 2 star rating. Very disappointed there were no breakfasts included and usually stopped at fast food places on early start days. A lot of time spent on ...read more bus travel. Having to pay for nearly all meals plus all the tipping made it an expensive trip. Highlights would be seeing some of the ruins, snorkeling in the Caribbean, swimming in the Cenotes, plus cooking class with the women's group, but the thing that made the trip was the people in the group, they were the best crew ever.
