Top Reasons to Travel to Central American Country of Belize
Its fun to travel to places that aren’t popularly spoken of or traveled to. As far as travel in Central America is concerned, Belize is a country that people rarely mention as a great travel destination. The following is a list of the top reasons why travelers should visit Belize and see what this hidden jewel has to offer:

1) Language barriers erased: Travelers who only speak English or who only know a little Spanish can relax because travelers to this Central American country will learn that English is the official language of Belize. No need to feel apprehensive about how to communicate to a tour guide questions or concerns you have about places you want to see or the activities you want to do. You can use that energy that might have been used to effectively communicate in a foreign language to enjoy what memorable and intriguing sights this unknown country has to offer.

2) Travel to Belize is budget friendly: Its cheaper to travel and explore Belizean sights than to travel to popular U.S. or European hot spots. The exchange rate is $2 Belizean dollars to $1 U.S. dollars which allow your money to go twice as far. It only takes about 2hrs to travel by plane from the U.S. to Belize. Tourists interested in traveling luxuriously can spend as little as BZ $350 ($170 U.S. Dollars) for 5 stars accommodations and cuisine.

3)Travel to Belize allows travelers to see a tropical environment in its purest form: Over 40% of Belizean land is protected from being destroyed or modernized, which allows for greater exposure to the exotic wildlife and plant life. Belize has a population of around ¼ million, which diminishes that chances of a traveler having to limit their sight-seeing activities which may include scuba diving off the Blue Hole or snorkeling around nature’s unique and intricately designed coral reefs.
