Fall time is the perfect time to book your clients for an unforgettable trip to Belize. And now that school is back in session, there’s never been a more fitting time to get that romantic getaway on the books. From beaches to exotic sites to perfect weather, there’s no shortage of fun and relaxation for the destination.
With only two seasons – wet and dry – Belize basks in delightful tropical warmth all year round. This means most of our North American friends flock to Belize during the cold, wintry months. While December to February may be the region’s peak season for this reason, the fall is quite the sweet spot, too. When your clients head to Belize between August and October, they’ll see there’s so much to take advantage of including gorgeous weather and discounted stays.
In this small Central American country –about the size of Massachusetts for reference –visitors will find gorgeous natural sceneries. Miles of beautiful beaches are spread against the Caribbean Sea, dotted with cayes and atolls. A vast network of national parks and wildlife sanctuaries brim with exotic species – such as spider monkeys, bright green iguanas, peccaries, over 500 species of birds and even the occasional jaguar. Add to that a generous sprinkling of Maya sites to round out the experience, and there’s something to see or do every day and night of your stay. Best of all, visitors will meet warm hearted people, representing a mixture of nationalities that range from Mestizo and Creole to Garifuna and Maya.
And, as a travel agent, now is also the perfect time to take advantage of booking your clients for a trip to Belize. That’s because you can now enroll in the UnBelizeable Rewards Program and get a chance to experience the destination for yourself!

Additionally, the top-selling travel agents will be rewarded with a special trip to experience Belize on a whole new level!
Participation in the UnBelizeable Rewards Program is open to all travel advisors.
