This is a lengthy, in depth overview of everything you need to know before going to Belize along with many of our recommendations. If you have any questions or comments - Please leave them below! - Jenny and Lance
Is there a pottery class? Like painting stuff?
@@Ice-hz3pi Hmm, we didn't see any but I'm sure there might be?
Guatemala is so beautiful, rich, unique and magical. Guatemala has so many beautiful provinces like Solola, Quetzaltenango, Belice, San Marcos, Izabal, Peten etc. Guatemala even gets some snow in the highest points of the western highlands. The Malvinas belong to Argentina 🇦🇷 and Belice belongs to Guatemala 🇬🇹. By law and history Belice is 100% Guatemalan territory. God bless you all 🙏
Are the country natives living in or below poverty?
Thanks for sharing this video! You're very knowledgeable about my country. Haven't been there in years. Hoping to make a trip soon!😍🙏😍🙏
I was born in Belize, but migrated at twelve years of age and grew up in Texas. I just wanted to say you both did a great job informing people and travelers about Belize and its culture. The only thing I’d like to point out is that Belizeans pronounce our Cayes as “keys” and not Kays.
Thank you for referring to Belize as a "Developing Nation" and not a 3rd world Country. Great video.
Like not calling a Labrador a dog. Has no good infrastructure, poor hospitals, few ATMs, most expensive country in CA
I'M So proud to be a Belizean woman.🇧🇿
I live in Belize, moved here 13 yr ago. It is nice to see a positive, realistic view of this place. I was security at the tourism village and Iwas told by an American that he was told that Belize was very dangerous,,, This guy came from the Bronx, say no more
who liked this?
We just returned from our honeymoon in Hopkins, Belize and absolutely loved it.
HI! I LIVE IN FLORIDA BUT I WAS BORN IN BELIZE . KNOWING AND LOVING BELIZE LIKE I DO ESPECIALLY THE CAYES AND PLACENCIA , I ONLY HAVE 2 THUMBS BUT YOU GUYS DESERVE MORE THAN THAT YOU HAVE BEEN REAL AND TRUTHFUL AND FAIR. I APPRECIATED ALL YOUR COMMENTS AND SUGGESTIONS . IT IS REFRESHING TO HEAR SOMEONE GIVE A SERIUOSLY ACCURATE ACCOUNT OF THE LIFE AND LIFESTYLE IN MY GREAT COUNTRY.
THANK YOU

Enjoyed this video. Very informative and nice guys to talk in a decent way 9f other cultures. Very respectful couple towards other cultures
Thank you so much for pointing out that Belize City isn't the dangerous place people make it out to be, although I have not been back to Belize for a few years, I have NEVER felt unsafe down town in Belize. Of course, everywhere has its problems, but being sensible is all that is needed. Belize is truly the jewel of the Caribbean.
Headed there in a few weeks. Great video!

Outstanding video! I spent the month of February, 2022. I experienced many of what you shared here and your accuracy in what to expect is spot on. Every thing that you shared and your points of view...well done! Thanks for putting this up! Can't wait to go back!
I’ll be in Belize in a week! Do you know if there are still covid restrictions like the ones mentioned in this video?
Excellent video. The 25 minutes actually flew by as you two are very engaging and entertaining
Belize is very safe for tourists they are protected. But Belizeans are at risk amongst each other.
I was in Belize, in November, 2021. I stayed in Caye Caucker, and I LOVED IT!! the food, Maya Ruins, and the San Pedro Express!!! Our resort had their own transportation to North Caye Caulker where they were located. We also met family members from Belize City. We had an awesome time!
Caye Caulker was one of our favorites too! Glad you had a great time too! You think you’ll go back someday?
Where did you stay? 🌻

So I have to say I now live here in Placencia for nearly a year as was happy to see you at the Placencia Beach Club pool in the intro! Even tho I live here, I found it informative about things to do in other areas of this beautiful country I call home.
Great to hear this! We loved the Placencia Beach Club. - Jenny and Lance .

Hi miss Michelle
Thanks you guys to come to Belize 🇧🇿 that is my home town guys 🥰😍🤩
Awesome! Which part of Belize are you from?
Thanks, I was seriously researching, & thinking of moving to Belize after I retired. But ended up moving to a rural part of No. East Tennessee. Happy I did, (4 yes later), I'm now thinking of perhaps spending the winter months in Belize &/or Costa Rica. I'm not rolling in $'s but think I might be able to rent a couple of month here and there. Perhaps with the help of one of the nice local friends you met there during the time you have stayed there.
Thanks again for sharing your experiences, I hope to visit Belize some day soon.
Great vid
New to this but couldn’t find links to Gilbert taxi service and Gonzales fishing. Thank you so much for this video so helpful.
