a week of fun on those white sandy beaches, including the tranquil island of
Isla Mujeres, the town of Playa del Carmen, and the island of Caye Caulker in

Crossing into Guatemala our first stop is Flores, our base for exploring the
great Mayan city of Tikal, one of the largest Mayan cities ever discovered.
Onto Finca Ixobel for a host of optional activities; horse-riding, caving and
