Central America

From its lush jungles and magnificent Mayan ruins to its smoking volcanoes and crystal-clear seas, Central America is the stuff of tropical fairytales – you truly have to see it with your own eyes to believe it’s real. Situated between the best of both beach worlds – with the chilled our Caribbean on one side and the epic swell of the Pacific on the other – you can take your pick of sunny resort holidays, whether you want to snorkel the world’s second-largest coral reef in Belize or dive with the whale sharks in Honduras. Or, head inland to experience oodles of colourful culture, history and wildlife, exploring the temples of Tikal, checking out one of the New7Wonders of the World in Mexico or ziplining through rainforest canopies in Costa Rica.
