This is my official guide for a journey from the northern tip of Quintana Roo, go to the islands of Belize, s'addentra in the forest, crosses the border to go and get lost in the jungles of Guatemala and from there down, cutting the country to Lake Atitlan before returning to Mexico, in the State of Chiapas, and after 20 hours of bus meet in Cancun to ask yourself "what am I doing here?".
It is the only salvation united distributors plausible, unless you have a boat, so much money or friends with wealthy beachfront villa. If you have a backpack of 70 liters on the shoulders follow my advice. If you are skeptical then people do not follow either the recommendation of Lonely Planet, hike through the jungle with a machete and find out what are pussies diseases morsotrasmesse. Tulum looks bad, but it is a place to see, the town is spread along the main road, but within united distributors walking distance there are plenty united distributors of things to see / do (in order of beauty): The cenotes dos ojos (an incomparable, my words will not be sufficient for these links here, here, here); The Mayan ruins that give directly on the beach, united distributors are the cover of all the guides who speak of Tulum; Snorkeling among the giant turtles and stingrays, with a lot of Americans who risk their lives to make a spectacle
Tips scattered: Restaurants El Camello jr. try the ceviche mixto and michelada (based drink beer & stuff). Ridiculous prices; Hostels: The Weary Traveler is not bad, is in town and in the evening you MUST stay in the city, out there is the civil death.
It stops the exact time that goes by the arrival at the bus station to the departure by boat towards Belize. Chetumal is a town forgotten by God, doubly oppressed, first by a hurricane in 1955 completely razed to the ground, then the Mexicans who have rebuilt his feet, to say the least.
While you're still on the boat, the first question that you have to get is "San Pedro and Caye Caulker"? Us, blindly trusting the guide which promised a nightlife of the first level and totally ignoring that "early August" is low season, we opted for San Pedro. San Pedro (La Isla Bonita) is small, quite dirty and expensive. If you are not there to make diving, there remains only option lying-to-sun-with-a-book-in-hand. It is an island full of kitsch and Panzoni fans of air conditioning and cocktails with little umbrellas. It must be said that the sand is very white, very blue sea, the food excellent and the nights are fun and reggae oriented (including united distributors herbal medicines). The other island, Caye Caulker, will tell you all that is beautiful.
A dispassionate advice, do not stop, driving mind again, the capital is very bad. Think that was also abandoned by the government. In the eyes of those arriving it is run down and ramshackle, downing the sewers in open channels and the few tourists are closed to the hotel. With few Euros getting away from Belize united distributors City.
You can get there in two hours from Belize City, the public buses are not too bad and cheap, are big American school bus abandoned. At first sight San Ignacio is very pretty, the entrance united distributors to the village passes through a wooden bridge that crosses a beautiful river in the late afternoon is filled with people doing the bathroom. After a short climb, there is a market of fruit, colorful and fragrant, then the bus terminus and a landscaped garden filled with people. Evenings in San Ignacio are very low profile, there are no special attractions. Let me hungry before nine, otherwise exiting after that time you will find many beautiful shutters united distributors down.
To see the caves Actun Tunichil Muknal with a day trip, we start at seven in the morning and return in the evening. Preparation is key: Costume: yes Trekking shoes: yes Socks Terry: Yes Exchange: Yes Flops: NO Backpack: NO Water: yes, and yet so much.
It is to be a 40-minute trek in the jungle, heavy breathing hot air, put your legs up to the knee in a river and sweat, sweat a lot. When you get in front of the cave you have to dive into the clear and cold (without taking your shoes) to enter. From then on there is to follow united distributors the guidance in a maze of rooms, tunnels and high-ceilinged rooms filled with stalactites and stalagmites. In some places you can swim, in other you climb. After an hour you arrive at a point where the guides will ask you to remove your shoes and wearing only socks, they will get into an area where the Maya (2000 years ago) performed their rituals. The caves were discovered in 1992 and within them were found many artefacts and three skeletons, they think children were sacrificed to the gods. The guide told us that the Mayans first
