Whether you're looking for the ancient Maya pyramids, Spanish colonial splendours, majestic volcanoes, adventure sports or just the best beaches to laze on, this guide offers practical travel advice. It features introductory country-by-country at a glance sections, a special feature on the Mayan world covering Campeche, Yucatan and Quintana Roo, and a sports and special interest section, which includes information on the surfing scene in each region. Background information on ancient civilizations, archaeological sites and revolutionary history, along with full accommodation listings for all budgets and ages is also included.
PETER HUTCHISON Peter Hutchison first visited Central America in 1992 when he travelled extensively through the region and onto South America... using Footprint all the way! Attempts to settle in the UK have proved partially successful, but the attractions of Latin America continue regularly to pull him back to the region.
