Boys and Girls...planning a trip to Belize in late November for 8 days. It is with the intent of birding as much as is humanly possible all day, every day (sshh...don't tell the girlfriend!).
I will likely get found out pretty quick, so my compromise is that I want to plan a trip that involves a split between 3 nights beach/relax and 3 nights birding at one of the following lodges:
DuPloys, Black Hole or Pook's.
I also would like to do a day-trip to Tikal, Guatemala for the ruins for a tour (possibly one night stay in Tikal?)
As I look into this any basic planning would be helpful. Most of the lodges are 2 -3 hours from Belize Airport, but any recommendations on:
- a good resort/hotel to stay at for the "beachykeepthelasshappy" part ?
- if going to Tikal, is one of the lodges mentioned above better situated for that?
-any recommendations for the best lodge for birding would be cool.
Not sure about renting a vehicle given the time, so may opt to have the lodges take care of transport unless frugal birders have options to take a taxi instead.
Many thanks!
