City advice
Getting around
Local Taxi cabs are everywhere for within town.
Elle's Place recommends Don Jose who is a close by neighbor of high confidence (contact is +501 6210446) for any runs.
For personal sight seeing trips Abe Gutierrez has great reviews (contact is 501 6663426).
Buss runs are at about every hour traveling from San Ignacio to Belmopan and Belize City.
Face masks are still required in indoor spaces.
What to pack
Bring comfortable clothing and good walking shoes
Mosquito repellent and sun screen is strongly advisable.
Ways to save
Farmers Market day on Tuesdays, Thursdays and Saturdays.
Comfort foods are common in our town. Must try our Tamales or Bollos. Its a corn based food stuffed with seasoned chicken meat and steamed in plantain leaves ($2.00 BZ each).
Our tap water is safe for drinking; however, I recommend to drink purified water.
