Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:

Open Road's Best of Belize is packed with useful suggestions for maximizing a short-term visit to Belize. Go eco-touring in the interior Maya Mountains and Mountain Pine Ridge, explore the wilds in the Crooked Tree sanctuary, navigate the ruins at Altun Ha and Xunantunich, take an excursion to Tikal across the border, or relax along the beautiful beaches and resorts of the Placencia Peninsula. This updated second edition also has great hotel and restaurant recommendations at all price levels, featuring a Spanish-English glossary of phrases and words that will help travelers get around the country with ease.

Includes bibliographical references (pages 581-584) and index.
