We travel through some of the most memorable sceneries on the continent on this 21-day adventure through Guatemala, Belize and Mexico's Yucatan region, bearing witness to historic sites that boggle the mind and mingling with friendly peoples whose bloodlines stretch back millennium and to the most notable ancient civilizations in the history of the Americas.
Each of our three destination countries offers a wealth of well-preserved monuments dating back to the days of the great Mayan Empire: in Guatemala, we see ancient temples, pyramids and stone structures dating from 500BC; in Mexico, we come face-to-face with majestic palaces and perhaps the most beautiful of all Maya structures in Central America; and in Belize, we explore Maya ruins outside Caracol, where the number of ancient dwelling-places is greater than the total number of modern houses in the entire country.
Along with browsing in local markets brimming with impressive arrays of beautiful hand-woven textiles and crafts, admiring traditional dress and learning about long-held customs of villagers, we see towering volcanoes, explore lush tropical jungle and take a boat ride to one of the oldest commercial sites, which dates from 400BC.
