  For those using public transportation, take a bus from San Ignacio to Belize City. Buses leave regularly from the San Ignacio bus terminal and the journey takes about 2 hours. Once you arrive at the Belize City bus terminal, exit and head east on West Street. Continue straight until you reach the junction at Regent Street. Turn left onto Regent Street, and you will find the Belize Tourism Board on your right side. Bus fare is usually around $10 BZD.

  If you prefer a more direct option, you can hire a taxi from anywhere in Western Belize to Belize City. Make sure to agree on the fare before starting your journey. The drive may cost around $100 to $120 BZD depending on your starting point and the taxi service. Once you arrive in Belize City, direct the driver to Regent Street, where the Belize Tourism Board is located.

• Shuttle Service

  You can book a shuttle service from popular locations in Western Belize, such as San Ignacio or Cayo District, to Belize City.
