Central America (Mexico to Costa Rica)

1 itinerary · 0 open departures · 0 missions

Central America stretches from Mexico in the north to Costa Rica in the south, encompassing a diverse arc of countries including Guatemala, Belize, Honduras, El Salvador, Nicaragua, and Costa Rica. The region is renowned for its dramatic landscapes — volcanic mountain ranges, dense rainforests, Caribbean and Pacific coastlines, and ancient Maya ruins at sites like Tikal and Chichén Itzá. Travellers come for world-class diving in Belize's Great Blue Hole and the Bay Islands, surfing on both coasts, wildlife watching in Costa Rica's national parks, and rich indigenous and colonial cultures. The well-trodden "Gringo Trail" makes it a popular route for independent and group travellers moving overland between countries.
