Really enjoyed my recent solo trip to Belize. My first stop was in San Ignacio at the Maya Mountain Lodge. I felt very safe in San Ignacio - no harassment, and everyone was friendly and welcoming. Really felt in love with the place and there are fun adventurous things to do such as the ATM caves and Mayan sites. I felt very safe walking around in the day (but as with all holidays, refrained from walking alone at night - but that’s my own universal rule) Travelled through Belize City to catch a ferry. The city is known for high crime rates and is generally somewhere for tourists to get out...
Posted: January 27, 2025Felt very safe as a couple, I wouldn’t walk alone as a female at night in Belize city however. The villages felt very safe, as well as the islands. The people were extremely friendly and helpful. The food was good—stay local for the best experiences.

Felt very safe in Caye Caulker Belize. Beach time, walking/biking around the island Took a day trip to San pedro. I was on a low budget so stayed at reputable hostels If you like any more details feel free to ask!:)
Posted: March 7, 2024Experienced: February, 2024I visited San Pedro, Caye Caulker and San Ignacio, falling in love with each of these places. On the mainland I traveled by chicken bus and felt very safe. I stayed in hostels all the time, which were great, except those on Caye Caulker, where the hostels were quite rundown. Belize is more expensive than other Central American countries, but there are ways to travel on a limited budget.
