First founded in 1985 when view tourists visited Belize, the Belize Tourism Industry Association (BTIA) is a non-profit broad-based umbrella organization that works to meet the challenges of the dynamic hospitality industry in the country. Now one of the largest non-profit organizations in the country, BTIA has some 600 members and works hand-in-hand with the government to promote sustainable practices in order to help Belize develop as a leading "green" tourism destination.
Packed full of tips and information that only a local would know, The Ultimate Belize Bucket List is designed to serve as a complete "travel bible" for anyone visiting or considering visiting Belize.

In a simple, easy-to-read format, Waight covers more than 3,000 years of history in Belize, starting when the area was the heartland of the ancient Maya civilization that built thousands of stone pyramids, temples, and residences across the landscape, over 600 of which still survive.
Pre-publication extracts were recently shared with some of the top names in the Belize travel industry, and the book garnered widespread positive reviews. "If anyone is planning on visiting Belize, this is definitely the book they should read," said Lord Michael Ashcroft, Belize's wealthiest man and an influential member of the British nobility. "Truly a great guide for our wonderful country, including all the information about our rich cultural diversity," said Said Musa, former Prime Minister of Belize.
