Belize will make your whole family feel right at home, even deep in the jungle and in wild marine habitats. See the landscape through the eyes of your children — imagination makes these new worlds especially memorable. We can help you find family-friendly hotels and activities that accommodate people of any age.
Planning a Belize Family Vacation
Family vacations in Belize introduce curious young minds to colorful lessons in ecology and history. Having fun in Belize is effortless, and along the way your family will get an education in the tremendous variety of life in coral reefs and tropical jungles.
Maya Playgrounds
Clamber around sites like Altun Ha, Caracol, Xunantunich, and Lamanai — the stepped sides of these temples were made for energetic travelers, and the view from the top of a temple is hard to beat. On your hikes to see Maya sites, your naturalist guide will point out fascinating nativen plants and animals along the way.
Easy Adventures
Try tubing to see the rainforest at an easygoing pace. Go to the river that runs through the Tapir Mountain Nature Reserve to visit the storied cave of Actun Tunichil Muknal. It’s not guaranteed to see rare animals on a nature hike, so take a trip to the Belize Zoo to see species like tapirs and jaguars. If you stay on Ambergris Caye or Caye Caulker you’ll be a short boat ride from whale sharks, stingrays, sea turtles, dolphins, manatees, and tropical reefs.
Trip plans for the whole family
Planning a trip that includes your kids can feel daunting. Never fear — we can arrange everything from hotels to car seats. The sooner we get started, the sooner you’ll feel great about your travel plans.
