Belize City was the official capital of our country until 1961, when Hurricane Hattie devastated the area. As a result, a new capital, Belmopan, was built further inland to the west. However, Belize City remains the largest and most populated part of the country and is still considered the commercial capital. The city lies below sea level and was once a major mahogany settlement in the 17th and 18th centuries under British rule. Today, it serves as the main port of entry for most visitors to Belize, with a population of approximately 80,000 and a land area of around five square miles.
While learning about the history and culture of Belize, you’ll journey through the heart of Belize City, where every street and building holds a story. As you drive through this lively yet historic city, you’ll see a blend of colonial charm and modern influences, reflecting the resilience and spirit of the Belizean people. From the vibrant waterfront to the architectural remnants of our past, each turn offers a glimpse into the country’s rich heritage. Your guide will share fascinating insights, bringing the city’s past to life while you take in the sights, sounds, and energy that make Belize City truly unique.
During your Belize City tour, you’ll have the option to visit the Museum of Belize for an additional fee, which can be arranged during your transfer.
