Guatemala & Belize experience in

Nine days across Guatemala and Belize, taking in Mayan ruins, colonial towns and Caribbean coast in one go. You start inland among volcanoes and lakes, then cross into Belize for reef and jungle.

Guatemala brings the ruins of Tikal, the colonial streets of Antigua and the volcanic backdrop of Lake Atitlán. Belize shifts the pace to its coast and cayes, with the world's second largest barrier reef and Mayan sites like Caracol and Xunantunich further inland.

It's a partially guided trip, so you'll have some free time to explore alongside the group sections, and the group itself isn't fixed — people join and leave along the way, which keeps things loose rather than locked to one fixed set of travellers.

• Explore the Mayan ruins at Tikal
• Walk the colonial streets of Antigua Guatemala
• Take in the volcanic scenery around Lake Atitlán
• Snorkel or dive off Belize's cayes and coral reef
