Ask the travel agencies if they will take you on as out side salesperson. You agree to split the commissions.If you produce enough business they will place you on their iota list.You will then be able to take many fam trips.

I am a proud Belizean and a professional tourist guide. I have been guiding now for 6 years and I love what I do. In my years as a Tourist Guide I've taken thousands of visitors to Belize on some of the most enlightening, entertaining and adventurous tours.

We've done everything from admire panoramic views atop ancient Maya temples to tubing through some of the longest caves in the Mayan world. We've swam with sharks, flew with the birds and "danced with the deer".

I truly do love my country Belize and would love to take you around showing you the sights, sounds and tastes that are apart of what has been appropriately termed "Mother Nature's Best Kept Secret".

I look forward to meeting You
