Verdant green jungles teaming with life accented with ancient ruins, firey volcanos and majestic waterfalls...the countries of Central America are as beautiful as they are unique. Costa Rica is the most popular Central American vacation destination followed by Belize. Both countries offer a wide variety of accommodations from the youth hostels to five star spa and resorts.

Honduras, Nicaragua, Guatemala and Panama are a bit more rustic in terms of accommodations and tourism infrastructure but are definately working establishing themselves as vacation destinations. El Salvador while very beautiful is still mending from years of civil war and is only recommended as a vacation destination for the most experienced of travelers.
