Mexico, Guatemala & Belize

1 itinerary · 0 open departures · 0 missions

Mexico, Guatemala, and Belize together form one of the most historically and naturally rich corridors in the Americas, anchored by the ancient heartland of Maya civilisation. Travellers come for iconic ruins like Chichen Itza, Tikal, and Caracol, alongside colonial cities such as Oaxaca and Antigua. The region also draws adventurers for its diverse landscapes — from the cenotes and Caribbean coastline of the Yucatán and Belize Barrier Reef (the second longest in the world) to the volcanic highlands of Guatemala. It's a favourite multi-country route for independent and group travellers seeking culture, history, jungle trekking, diving, and vibrant local food scenes all within a single trip.

Contrasts of Mexico & Maya World – Self-Launched (Day of the Dead Edition)

A self-launched, hostel-and-guesthouse version of Explore!'s 15-day "Contrasts of Mexico" run, taking you from Mexico City's Aztec heart through Oaxaca's Day of the Dead celebrations, the Zapotec and Mixtec ruins of the southern highlands, the jungle canyons of Chiapas, and across into Guatemala's Petén and Belize's Cayo district. Every included guided visit is replaced with a self-bookable version — GetYourGuide day tours, local site guides hired at the gate, ADO buses and colectivos instead of a private coach. Costs are backpacker-realistic estimates in GBP, assuming shared dorms or budget private rooms and street food plus cheap comedores.

Missions

Nobody's posted a Mission for Mexico, Guatemala & Belize yet — which, frankly, is an opportunity.

Wait, what's a Mission?It's not a scheduled trip with dates and a minimum group size like a Departure — it's a goal. Learn to dive, do a Muay Thai camp, live somewhere for a month and work on something, chase one very specific experience. Post it, and other people chasing the same thing find you.

Be the first to post one: "Learn the first 20 seconds of a local dance, then perform it, uninvited, at every bar you visit."
