Wonderful People, Countryside, and Experiences

Belize | Feb 16 - Mar 1, 2025

We had been planning a vacation in the region for months. Once we met Alex at Old Town Outfitters, our planning became so much easier. He took the time to get to know us and what we were interested in. He patiently altered our itinerary to accommodate septuagenarians who enjoy culture and nature but are not as fit and able as we once were.

Alex worked well with an agency in Belize to plan the first part of our adventure and then connected us to able, trusted guides and drivers in Guatemala who were knowledgeable and kind. He also helped us stay within budget. I could go on and on, but I must say we are exceedingly happy with our experience and the people who made it possible.

Food, jungles, beaches, volcanoes, colonial towns, and rich cultural and archeological sites, this trip was once in a lifetime , though I’d love to do it again. The people of Guatemala are kind and friendly. And speaking of kind and friendly, capable and well versed, our guide and friend, Jerry Rodas was so good to us, and we now think of him as a treasured family member.
