Photo Adventure in Belize

Explore a little of everything Belize has to offer from the Mayan Mountains to the Caribbean Sea


January 30 - February 6, 2011

Tuition $1950

Belize has just about everything: jungles, beaches, wildlife, mountains, caves, waterfalls, and ancient Maya ruins. This trip has everything too! Over the course of a week, we'll take you on a photographic adventure of a lifetime as you get to see and photograph Belize as few tourists ever could.
In Belize, the main language is English, with a diverse mixture of culture and familiar Caribbean hospitality. On this trip, you can expect some early starts, with photography lessons making the best of the light at dawn and dusk. Normally, two to three hours are available for lunch, giving you time to relax or to choose other activities organized by your guides.

This trip has been designed to give you a taste of everything Belize has to offer. Your Belize Adventure begins in San Ignacio, with panoramic views of the Cayo district and into the wilds of Guatemala. Then we head southward, down the Hummingbird Highway to the Toledo district. Here we'll travel to enchanting remote Maya villages on the border with Guatemala and be guided deep into the jungle with local wildlife experts. Other highlights are Mayan ruins and ancient temples, Mayan mountain landscapes, rainforest scenics, waterfalls, an organic cacao farm (chocolate), a butterfly farm, Placencia (a small, Caribbean calypso coastal town), plus other surprises.
