We had an early morning departure today for Belize City. We took our time through the mangroves, saw a couple more manatee, and then cruised the 30 miles back across the ocean. A quick and beautiful flight on Tropic Air brought us to Placencia, our home for the next couple days. We were transferred to the Turtle Inn, Francis Ford Coppola's property in Placencia. It was absolutely beautiful. The lodge was decorated Bali style, and while we felt a little under-dressed and out of place, the staff did such a great job making us feel welcome. After exploring the property a bit, we grabbed some bikes and headed into town. We wandered the narrowest street in the world - according to Guiness Book of World Records and ate some delicious Belizean cuisine.

Jess was so helpful in talking me through some of the trip options I'd told her I was interested in, and then also bringing up similar alternatives with more flexible dates. Now that everything is booked I realize all the extra things she figured out for us as well, besides booking the transfers from and to each location, she realized that we wouldn't make it to my desired flight time on three departure date and was able to easily add another day so that even our departure day is stress free!

The trip planner understood what we wanted to do and see, and found what we hope to be a great match for our interests and style of travel.

Basically everything. The transfers from lodge to lodge were all timely and smooth (even though we arrived 3 hours late!) with great drivers. The lodges and food were all top notch. The guides were excellent and very knowledgeable about local history and wildlife. Chaa lodge stands out as exceptional. I ended up with an infection leaving Chaa, but they arranged for driver to stop at doctor, and he even got us to a pharmacy for prescription and a great drive to coast.
