Here's why Central America is the ideal destination for your family on your next vacation.

Affordability

In addition, in Travelisimo we offer you a wide variety of options so you can plan your trip according to your budget. Resorts, hotels, vacation homes, tours and transportation are some of the services you can book with us.

Magnificent nature

If there is one thing you will definitely not miss on your trip to Central America, it is nature. From the moment you enter the Central American territory you realize that it is a region endowed with magnificent biodiversity of flora and fauna. And wherever you go you will find lakes, rivers, beaches, mountains, volcanoes, waterfalls or rainforests that you can explore with your family. An example of this is Costa Rica, which has a quarter of its territory occupied by nature reserves.

Active Volcanoes

Central America is surrounded by volcanoes everywhere, in no other region of the world will you find so many active volcanoes in such a small area. When climbing an active volcano you can even see the micro explosions they make with your own eyes. So we highly recommend you to climb one on your visit, to be amazed by this spectacle provided by nature.

For these activities Travelisimo offers a wide variety of family tours for you to enjoy the experience with your family safely.

We have already presented the reasons why you should visit Central America with your family, now we tell you which destinations you should visit during your stay in this region. These destinations were chosen taking into account factors such as safety for our family, prices, accessibility and attractiveness of the destination.

Arenal Volcano, Costa Rica

This volcano is located in the district of La Fortuna, Costa Rica. It is an imposing volcano, due to its large size and the beautiful natural scenery that surrounds it. When visiting this destination with your family you should visit the lava remains left from the 1992 eruption, the long-lived ceiba tree with approximately 4 centuries old, and finally the trails that lead you through a rainforest, where you can appreciate the flora and fauna that this volcano is home to.

Placencia, Belize

This paradisiacal beach is located in the Stann Creek district of Belize. It is an extremely quiet and peaceful area, perfect to visit with your family if you are looking for relaxation and rest. Unlike other beaches in Belize, Placencia still has a very Belizean atmosphere. So, despite being an incredibly beautiful beach, you won't find an agglomeration of tourists, tourist services, hotels or restaurants.

Manuel Antonio National Park, Costa Rica
