hello All!
partner Mark and I are thinking about coming to Belize in a 34' RV with our 3 dogs. We have no RV experience, so anyone that has, please offer your advice, it will be greatly appreciated. We are most concerned about the heat and humidity, we are aiming for the San Ignacio area. The idea is to drive it thru Mexico from the U.S. and live in it until we have a better feel for the area, to rent, buy, etc.
~thank you,
Belizeplease

I've heard from several people who just recently did this that it is completely safe.聽 Just stay on the main highway and don't veer off into never never land, and you'll be fine.

BTW, Cancun to Belize is about a five hour drive I understand.

cancun to cayo is 7 hours no matter how you play it I have done that drive twice I think it is safe but from the US seems risky
does anyone know the route people are taking ???

Cruiser, I was saying from Cancun to the country of Belize it is a five hour drive. From Belize City to San Ignacio it is 75 miles exactly - done it many, many times. Takes about 1 1/2 hours.聽 Hope that explains better what I was trying to say.
