Flying Via Cancun, Mexico, bus into Belize City

Many people find that the airfares can be less expensive to fly into Cancun, and then take the bus to Belize City (see Cancun to Belize City by bus).

Bus Transportation

Belizebus.wordpress.com  to Belize from the US border cities via Cancun, Mexico City and Chetumal is comfortable, relatively fast, and inexpensive. All-weather highways connect Mexican cities with the border city of Chetumal. From here, regularly-scheduled Belize buses make runs to Belize City.

 

Driving to Belize

Driving to Belize can be a challenge. Depending on the route taken, the trip to Belize through Mexico can be anywhere from 1,350-2,000 miles. A sturdy car, protective insurance, and positive determination are huge assets in assuring one’s arrival. In order for visitors to drive into Belize from Guatemala or Mexico, a temporary importation permit must be secured at the point of entry. Permits are valid for one month but can be extended by applying to the Customs Department. To get a permit, present the following at the point of entry:

  • Travel documents and identification

  • Proof of ownership (vehicle registration)

  • Proof of insurance--available from any of the companies at the borders

  • Rental documents (for vehicles rented in Mexico or Guatemala)

Information obtained per various sources including websites and advertising.

Belize has a fascinating history with a diverse culture and
much to offer for residential, year-round, winter or vacation property.
With Mayan ruins and the abundant wildlife to the clear Caribbean waters,

Belize is one of the best places to invest in affordable tropical land.

We would like to offer all of this right here on the

beach front property in Belize at Anderson Point!

 

"Belize is one of the easiest places to retire. It's English speaking,
has a low cost of living, and no taxes. And it's in the Caribbean. In fact,
it's probably the last place where you can still get affordable Caribbean real estate."
