Caye Caulker, Belize
The small island Caye Caulker is a short water taxi drive from Belize City away
(tickets can be bought here). In case you are not already in the vacation mood
when entering the small island Caye Caulker, you will definitely get into the
Caribbean vibes when stepping the first foot on the island. “Go slow” is the
well-known motto of the tiny island paradise – and you can feel it! Grab a
cocktail, relax in one of the many beach bars on Caye Caulker, and enjoy life to
the fullest!

Chetumal, Mexico
Chetumal is located right at the border to Belize and thus serves as a transfer
point for most tourists. We only stayed in Chetumal for one night to rest from
the long drive from Campeche as well as to get prepared for the upcoming journey
to Belize City. As far as we noticed, there are not a lot of attractions or
things to do in Chetumal itself.

Tulum, Mexico
Tulum a formerly small fisherman village, has undergone a drastic change into a
popular tourist destination within the past 20 years. The vibrant charm of Tulum
is noticeable all around the town and the opportunities in terms of what to eat
and where to stay are countless. We decided to stay in a lovely apartment
downtown, apart from the main hotel zone on the seaside – also known as the main
tourist zone. As Tulum is a rather small town, you can easily get around by bike
(they can be found for rent at every corner). The famous archaeological ruins,
located directly on the Caribbean coast, are a must-see when visiting Tulum.
Again, make sure to go early and take a lot of water as well as a sun hat with
you. There is almost no shadow and the sun during the daytime is burning! Once
in the area make sure to not miss the opportunity to visit some of the best
cenotes in Tulum! Every single one of them is fascinating in its own way

Valladolid, Mexico
Valladolid is a rather small town, about two hours from Cancún, which is known
for its beautiful cenotes. Even though the town has become increasingly popular
in recent years, it still belongs to the hidden gems in Mexico! The town itself
emits a special charm, which perfectly welcomes you to Mexican life. I recommend
taking a walk through the streets and letting yourself drift away together with
the locals around you. If you want to learn more about this charming town, make
sure to check out my post about the best things to do in Valladolid. For me,
Cenote Zaci has been my highlight in Valladolid. It is a beautiful outdoor
cenote, in which you can go swimming as well. Cenote Suytun (photo below), which
can be found near Valladolid, is one of the best cenotes of Mexico!
