Where We Be
This was our first visit to both Guatemala and Belize. We flew into Guatemala City and out of Belize
City. If you're willing to endure long, bumpy roads, it's easy to explore these two countries together
using public transport (e.g., shared shuttles). We met many travelers who extended their travels
before and after by including Mexico, El Salvador, Honduras, etc. into their itineraries.
Shown above is the specific route we took. We started at Guatemala City airport (GUA) and finished
at Belize International airport (BZE). We used a number of different companies for shared shuttles
(e.g., vans or small buses) between destinations in Guatemala. Transport was cheap but typically
crowded and uncomfortable. We primarily used BZ Shuttle in Belize which was expensive but private
and comfortable. We used Belize Express for ferry transport to Ambergris Caye and Caye Caulker.
