San Ignacio, Belize 3rd April to 6th April Collectivo bus to the border 30 Q and took 2 hours, it was very hot and full on the collectivo . We were lucky to have the back seat near the window so had ventilation. The poor girl at the other end of the back seat was travel sick, it's amazing how a baby wipe and a plastic bag can be helpful. Border crossing was easy, we then caught a taxi to San Ignacio only 8 miles and cost $6 belize each. Left at 12noon and arri...

Comfy seats with air conditioning, TV and toilets. Tulum is a strange place with two parts the town side then a 2km strip of thick jungle then the up market hotels, restaurants, bars and the beach. Andy thinks it feels like a staging post, but it is very laid back and peaceful. We stayed ...

Well we arrived after a 10 hour flight with BA. The Pilot made up time and got us here early, only to arrive with several other flights and then be stuck in immigration for 2 hours. At least it was air conditioned but very boring and tiresome, especially watching our baggage going round and round on the carousel and then being taken off and dumped in a pile. Finding the bus from the Cancun airport to Playa Del Carmen was easy and not too long a wait. It was als...
