While in San Ignacio, Cayo District of Belize, make sure you see
some of the most impressive scenery, and have the very unique
experiences that Belize has to offer. Many of the unique thing to
see and do are within a few miles of San Ignacio.
Whether you choose to drive yourself, take a commercial tour, or
hire a local guide/driver for your party, don't miss the
opportunity. We found that hiring a local guide/driver was the
best for the 2 of us. Not only was the price more reasonable, they
took you to what you wanted to see, to what you wanted to do,
you have the opportunity to stop at all the view points to take
pictures, take a walk, or sit by a waterfall for lunch or a swim.
Driving yourself may be an adventure on some of the back roads
( not paved) that are not marked as well as visitors might expect.
Car rentals are expensive in Belize. At Casa Nan, a vehicle is not
necessary, downtown, the farmers market, restaurants and
stores are all within a short walking distance. The ruins of Cahal
Peche are a 15 minute walk uphill from the house for the
energetic. Taxi's are plentyful, and reasonable for shorter trips.
The Casa Nan host in San Ignacio, Roy, will be willing to assist
you in arranging your side trips to the many wonders of Belize,
possibly driving you himself, or recommending some of the
better guides to use. If you want 20 pictures while enroute to a
location, they will stop 20 times. Others will not likely do this for
you. Check with Roy when you get to Casa Nan. Be sure to pack
a towel, swimsuit, sunscreen, a hat, a bottle of water and room in
your camera for lots of pictures.
Should you decide to eat out, there a number of places serving
excellent food. Each place seems to have a few specialty meals.
We tried a few different places, and it is an epicurean delight to
try some of the local foods.
