Anyone ever been to Belize? What do I need to know before I go? |
Travel Info Places to see? Is it an "American" friendly place? Travel Tips Belize is an English speaking country, but is developing at slow rate. Although you will find parts that are absolutely luxurious, be careful of the country as a whole. If you are going just as a tourist, stay in a ritzy resort and stick to that part of the city, and don't venture out on your own. If that's the case (that you're just a tourist) that will be fine. However, if you plan to do some adventuring, be very careful. Crime is really a big problem, and public transportation is horrible and unsafe. Rental cars may not even be working properly, and there is much corruption everywhere. BE CAREFUL WHEN PARTICIPATING IN WATER ACTIVITIES! Many companies that offer scuba diving and other services are either scam artists or operate low-quality programs with outdated, not inspected equipment--be careful! As long as you remain in tourist class you'll be fine; use common sense and don't explore too much. Stick to the safe parts of town. Source(s): Latin American Other Travel Tips |
