Belize has so many fun things to offer, it is practically impossible to squeeze in everything you want to do in one trip. So, how do you choose which ones to do? Slickrock Adventures suggests taking the following steps to ensure you get everything you can out of your Belize vacation.

1. Make a list of all the things you want to do and arrange the list in order of the most important. Some things to include in your list are the ruins, the jungle, wildlife excursions, hiking, Belize City, Social events and more. Make sure to put down the location of each event, ie, the Ruins at Atun Ha.
2. Next you will want to take a look at a map of Belize. Plot out where each of the things you want to do is. This will help you to organize your trip to make the best use of your time, as well as help you realistically plan what you can do.
3. From there you can start making your plans for what form of transportation you will be using to get from activity to activity.

A tour operator like Slickrock Adventures can help in planning everything, although you can plan many of the small activities yourself.

One of the most important things is a decent map. Slickrock Adventures offers a couple of maps on their web-site for free download, and a detailed road map for purchase. The map for purchase costs US $12.95, including shipping. That price is listed for US and Canada only.

The same detailed map can be purchased through Amazon.com. It is published by International Travel Maps of Vancouver Canada. The map is a fold-able travel and road map that has a index for towns, camps and villages. The map shows paved and unpaved roads, airports, lakes, rivers, borders, and other major points of interest in Belize. The map key is in English and Spanish.

This is the map most used by those who travel extensively around Belize. It puts the whole picture into perspective and can be a real life-saver. It is a definite must-have for anyone who plans to do a bit of exploring in Belize.
