Question

What's the currency in Belize?

Answer

The Belize dollar is the currency used in Belize, however, most places will accept US dollars. The Belize dollar is consistently set to 2:1 USD. Most places will give change in Belize dollars. We recommend carrying $20 USD bills and smaller while traveling and of course letting your credit card companies know ahead of traveling where you will be for hotel charges.

Question

So...Is Belize safe for tourists?

Answer

The short answer is yes. Of course you should take the same precautions as you would in any other big city or foreign country. We do however recommend avoiding staying in Belize City. Any other questions or concerns we are happy to speak with you about!

Question

What about ZIKA?

Answer

Though the CDC still lists Belize as an at-risk country for women who are pregnant or those who are wanting to conceive, there have been no confirmed cases of ZIKA in nearly two years. We of course support and recommend anyone who is considering starting a family to discuss this with their doctor if you have concerns.
