I have lived in Belize for years. I totally agree with everything you’re saying. We also love Florez. The longest I’ve stayed there is two weeks and it is definitely worth the trip. Tikal is also a trip worth taking.
I plan on visiting Belize in February but are flying into Chetumal and was going to rent a car to drive into Belize. Any recommendations on that drive as we are on a short trip, land Friday morning and leaving possibly tuseday morning
Corozal is also a good spot, less touristy, there's less populated ruins, the free zone is only 20 minutes away which has a couple casinos, although I'm still unsure I'd the free zone is a part of belize. We had to cross a border and get passports stamped, but we weren't in mexico
Awesome and informative. Thank. A trip into Guatemala would be so interesting but I thought that there is a travel advisory against going there ? (Canada)
Very informative and helpful! How difficult is it to cross from Belize to Guatemala? Could you do it by car? Do you recommend a Tikal tour? Or can you visit on your own? Thank you!
Not difficult. We were dropped off at the border and took another shuttle bus there. The Tikal tour annoyed us and we left the group. I'm not sure how doing it alone works. You'd still need the ride
Question...does belize actually seem more friendly than Mexico, Puerto Rico or other more tropical places ? Everyone says these places are friendly and i don't find that actually to be true, thanks.
What does the British Army do in Belize? Jungle training? Curious. I am retired military. While in Belize City I saw a military truck go by with British Soldiers.
Do you recommend setting up tours via the hotel or with the local options oitside what the resorts offer? And should one have a mix of both Belizean and U.S. dollars?
Great informative video! Thank you. What are your thoughts on 10 days in Belize early August? Does this sound like a good time to go and enough time to see everything?
Hi Gemini Discover, beautiful video. I’m planning a trip to Guatemala and Belize this AUGUST: do you highly recommend not to travel in there in this period, or there’s just more probability to have rain, humidity and nothing more? Thanks!!
Excellent video it was the first one we’re actually took me for a tour a guided tour so thank you As a voice coach, I noticed that when I turn the volume down, I can hear you better it could be my phone but often it’s the tone of the person I recommend hire pitch tone for you, because I feel like it blends well with the trouble where is when you finish your word with a long drawn out base vibration of the throat muscle it can be a little unnerving with too much base. I think you’re very good highs with the treble so I say, definitely play to your strengths
Thanks for the audio feedback. I honestly know nothing about voice coaching, but now I’m very curious. If you have resources for a complete beginner, feel free to share them.
@@GeminiDiscoverfirst, the video is great! I do want to mention that you had a strange vocal fry at the end of your sentences that did make it a little difficult to understand when listening on my phone.
I am a bangladeshi, i have valid visa for Bahamas and Belize. I would like to come belize after my Bahamas tour. Do you think it will be difficult for me to face belize passport control. Please give me the guideline for it. Thanks in Advance.
@@GeminiDiscover Thank you! That’s what I was thinking, getting an Airbnb in San Ignacio. I want to do the caves, Mayan ruins, zip lining, etc. probably not everything but whatever is most cost efficient
Lived in belize... its very violant... most everyone i met were selling out... the goverment will take your property... most boaters avoid it now... they tryed to take my boat too...
@GeminiDiscover I plan on moving there next year, so I've been watching videos for months, researching, and this was one of the most informative. Can you offer advice on safest and most comfortable places to live that are not on ambergris caye?
@@Johnnystiletto-ri8ht that is really sad to hear. I hope you wont take it the wrong way when I say I need to get more information. I cant imagine that there's not one single decent area to live there. Can you point me to resources where I can learn more about about you're saying?
@@akherashepsutera2013 you may have a different experince... when i was there most people were trying to sell out... met a 2 different guys 1 was stabbed and left for dead the other shot... good luck...
girl! 7 days??? I stayed there for years and have not seen everything! Plus i did spend almost nothing. Stop spreading it is expensive and live local style. Then you really learn this beautiful country.
My Uncle Mike went to belize, he loved it so much he moved there permanently
My friends said Belize is a dangerous country, people move with guns free is this true
So did uncle Hank! Jack Welker brought him the tickets as a gift.
Vince Gilligan is a genius
I’m working towards being your uncle.
…that came out wrong
@@StonerSquirrelAnd like six months later Jack bought tickets to himself, his nephew and crew to make Hank company, What. A. Guy
My friend Howard moved here from Albuquerque. I haven't seen him in a while. Hope he's having fun here.

I'm desperately searching for my uncle also, because I cannot ever imagine living without him...by my side ...24/7.
First visit on your channel, Thank you very much for sharing and highly appreciate for making in detailed video about Belize.
Good job done.
Whoa , Belize looks beautiful ❤

Such a great video! I appreciate how comprehensive it is
Same
Quick correction for those interested in location hopping: you can't fly into San Ignacio anymore, so shuttle/driving is your only option now.
Whaaat?? That’s news to us.
Oh bummer
Thanks so much! Just the info I was looking for.
Awesome video! I wish I went to the Mayan Ruins while I was there.
Excellent overview of Belize. Thanks for sharing

What are your thoughts on a 3 day trip to Belize from Tulum, Mexico in late July?
Great video . I'm planning a trip next April and I'm so excited. Thank you for the insights and suggestions!
Great video, really helped thanks so much :)
This was very helpful thank you
Great information, thanks
Question...does belize actually seem more friendly than Mexico, Puerto Rico or other more tropical places ? Everyone says these places are friendly and i don't find that actually to be true, thanks.
Belize is so great for adventure tourism
It really is. We’ve had some of our most memorable adventures there.
THANK YOU FOR THE AMAZING INFO .
Great job. Thank you.
I spent 6 months in Belize in the British Army in the 80s an I absolutely loved it 👍🇬🇧 2:17
What does the British Army do in Belize? Jungle training? Curious. I am retired military. While in Belize City I saw a military truck go by with British Soldiers.
@@Hashassin95 Doing what in Belize?
Es bello ver la grandeza de la naturaleza sin ser ostentosa en desarrollo urbano.mas al natural
Great Pl., Susie, I was there about 10 years ago when I was scuba diving. Excellent video. Nice job.
Glad you enjoyed it! Such a cool place to scuba dive.
Grreat video, thanks
Thxs. Great info, new Sub. Greetings from lovely Cancun. 😎
We love Cancun (and Mexico as a whole). Thanks for watching 🙏

Great informative video! Thank you. What are your thoughts on 10 days in Belize early August? Does this sound like a good time to go and enough time to see everything?
That is not a good time. Very hot and humid. Hurricane danger
Your video is very helpful! Where did you stay along the way? Or did you have a few "home bases" that you would return daily?
Excellent presentation ❤
Whats it like going from belize into guatemala? Do they let you go in as long as you have your passport? Are the rental cars from belize allowed in?
Entry was easy and instant. We haven't tried with a car
Hi Gemini Discover, beautiful video.

You’ll have to check the forecast, but we personally find winter to be the best in terms of weather.
Really nice video. Thanks for sharing

This video is amazing thank you
Interesante conocer sobre belice
aww bummer.
i watch your channel and live in Placencia Belize. but,,, you did not stop and say hi (frowny face)
Didn’t hit Placencia on this trip, but we have in the past and absolutely love it there.
Does your recommendations change for families with kids 9-14?
Not necessarily, but you have to make sure you understand the risks of traveling there like crime, violence, tropical diseases and critters
Amazing places!❤
this was very helpful
Awesome very informative!
Hi Gemini Im Taking My Family To Belize In August… What Would You Recommend San Pedro Or Caye Caulker ?
They are quite different. We enjoyed caye caulker a lot more. It's tiny and quiet. San Pedro is really busy but there is more...
@@GeminiDiscover Thank you for such a quick response…
@@GeminiDiscover Ok Thank You Gemini
is it true that you pay exit tax when you leave belize?
If you cross over into Guatemala to go to Tikal do you need your passport? I mean I’m sure you do but I’m asking just in case?
Yes you need a passport every time you cross these borders
I am a bangladeshi, i have valid visa for Bahamas and Belize. I would like to come belize after my Bahamas tour. Do you think it will be difficult for me to face belize passport control. Please give me the guideline for it. Thanks in Advance.
How did you travel to and from when you went to Guatemala?
Shuttle bus
how can i connect with you would like to plan my anniversary next year in Belize?
We're not in that business anymore
How about the fishing ?
We hear it's amazing but we haven't done it
Most excursions was $250. And up per person.
6 months? I thought they allowed 3 months from the time of your stay...
Is Belize a no in July?
It's very very bad weather
I’m going this weekend for 5 days staying in Ambergris Caye but should I stay there all 5 days or do two days in Belize City??
It depends on what activities you want to do. Personally, we would do a few days on Ambergris Caye and 2 days in San Ignacio.
@@GeminiDiscover Thank you! That’s what I was thinking, getting an Airbnb in San Ignacio. I want to do the caves, Mayan ruins, zip lining, etc. probably not everything but whatever is most cost efficient

would be good to update your commentary. Since a few years it is no longer mandatory/necessary to drive with an escort to Caracol.
It is impossible to update a TH-cam video unfortunately
