Introduction: Caribbean beaches, cities of ancient civilisations, colonial towns, pristine landscapes and more. Starting in Playa del Carmen we head down the Caribbean coast via the beautiful ruins of Tulum to the coral cayes in Belize. We explore the Mayan caves of San Ignacio and the ancient Mayan city of Tikal before flying to Guatemala City and continuing by road to the former capital of Central America, Antigua. We visit Panajachel on the shores of Lake Atitlan with its dramatic volcanoes, and wander through the colourful markets of Chichicastenango. The tour then winds its way through Honduras and Nicaragua, taking in the Mayan ruins at Copan, the beaches of the Caribbean Bay Islands and the pristine landscapes of central Honduras. From Yojoa Lake and Pulhapanzak Waterfall, we continue to Cerro Azul Meambar National Park with its huge biodiversity of species and ecosystems, tropical forest, pine forest and cloud forest. Crossing into Nicaragua we stay in the ancient capital of Leon before exploring colonial Granada and the Masaya Volcano, finishing with two nights on the beautiful island of Ometepe.
