| Central America Travel Guide Edit This The best resource for sights, hotels, restaurants, bars, what to do and see Pochomil, Nicaragua Pochomil, Nicaragua Carlos Alvarado The countries of Central America are all former Spanish colonies, with the exception of Belize, which was under British rule until 1980. Their culture is a mixture of Spanish heritage with native Indian influences, and a touch of Carribean flavor. In Central-America, Mexico receives most visitors. Mexico City, Acapulco , Baja California are all top tourist attractions. Yucatan with its many Maya sites should be on top of your priority list as well. South of Mexico, Guatemala and Honduras combine some of the best Maya sights with interesting Indian markets in small villages. Costa Rica is the top destination for eco-tourism. Panama is off the beaten track, but crossing the Darien gap or visiting the San blas islands is a unique experience. The Caribbean offers rum and reggae, lots of sunshine and sandy beaches. There are so many islands to choose from while all of them are beautiful, relaxing and exciting at the same time. The biggest islands Dominican Republic, Cuba , Haiti and Jamaica have loads of sights and are great for sun-worshippers with their numerous white sandy beaches. ___________Practical Information Edit This Central America, so close to everything but at the same time so far away in time, as if it had never gone by. Travel to Central America can be very rewarding as the natural and cultural attractions are unlimited. _________Getting Around Edit This Many folks from North America go to Central America on cruiselines or by air. But the Pan-American Highway is another alternative for those who might be a bit more adventurous. The highway runs all the way from Mexico to Panama, and it is good road most of the way. There are of course many ways to find your way around the Caribbean. The most convenient is to fly, but especially the smaller isles often don't have enough place to land a plane. Helicopters are really expensive to charter, but there are local operators that charter hydroplanes. Not less adventurous is to travel by boat or ferry. Sometimes its even possible to hitch a trip with local fishermen or traders. Be sure to let people at your destination know they should expect you, and the boat and crew you pick are safe to travel with. If you know what you're doing you might even rent a boat yourself.
