Days 6-7 San Ignacio
Travel through the forested highlands to San Ignacio. Perhaps see the caves of Actun Tunichil Muknal, where ancient Mayan relics and crystallised skeletons lie hidden. Maybe hire a canoe, go tubing, wallow beneath waterfalls or potter about in San Ignacio town. 

Days 8-9 Flores/ Tikal
It's hard to resist the charm of cobblestone streets, colourful houses and the relaxed pace of Flores. Don't miss the opportunity to spend an optional day discovering the jungle ruins and limestone temples at some of the most impressive of Guatemala's ruins. Learning the history of icons like the temple at Tikal on a guided tour is highly recommended. 

Days 10-11 Rio Dulce
Find a quiet spot to relax on the shores of Lake Izabal. Opt to head upriver to the thermal springs, or saddle-up for a horse ride through nearby rubber plantations.

Cross the wild countryside to Copan in Honduras. Take an optional trip to the Mayan ruins and walk through the grassy plazas under the gaze of huge carved faces, staring out from ancient walls. 

Days 19-21 Roatan Island
Catch a ferry from La Ceiba to Honduras's Roatan Island, and spend two days chilling out on the beach or scuba diving in Caribbean waters.

The historic centre of Comayagua is one of more charming major cities in Honduras, and a great place to witness colonial architecture meeting modern day life.
 
Days 23-24 Granada
Skip across the border into Nicaragua and arrive in the city of Granada. Surrounded by volcanoes and located on the shores of Lake Nicaragua, this is the country's oldest city. Wandering about and sightseeing in Granada is a fine way to spend an afternoon.

Days 27-28 Monteverde
Arriving in Costa Rica, explore the lush Monteverde cloud forest on foot or perhaps adopt a faster pace and hop on a mountain bike. A Monteverde canopy or zip line tour is also a great way to explore the area. 

Days 29-30 La Fortuna/ Arenal Volcano National Park
Travel to quirky La Fortuna and witness bright-orange lava flowing from Arenal Volcano, a sight that is all the more stunning on an optional night hike. Relax under cascading La Fortuna Waterfall or ease tired muscles in the hot springs.
