Responsible travelLake Ohrid is not the backdrop to an ancient town: it is part of a shared cultural and ecological system. The best visit does not try to cover everything, but decides which relationship it wants to understand: the hillside town, the wetland edge or the mountain.
Read guide →Lamanai rewards travelers who accept that getting there is part of the visit. It is more than a group of temples: the river, lagoon, colonial churches and former sugar mill invite you to look at a long history still connected to living communities.
