Did you know that there is a new Natural World Heritage Site in Honduras?

As of June 10, 2015, Honduras has a new Natural World Heritage Site registered in the UNESCO. The site, named Reserva de la Biosfera del Cacique Lempira, Senor de las Montañas, which translated into English would read Cacique Lempira, Lord of the Mountains Biosphere Reserve is located in Western Honduras. The anchor for this new biosphere reserve is none less than Celaque National Park, home of Honduras’s highest peak, Cerro de Las Minas which reaches an altitude of 2849 meters above sea level. Also known as Celaque, this park, as well as the Cordillera de Celaque mountain range are part of the most rugged territories in Honduras and Central America.

Named after the almost mythical native leader, Lempira, who valiantly fought against the Spanish Conquistadors, and became the first national hero of Honduras when he was murdered in cold blood during a truce that the Spaniards declared to negotiate with Lempira and his army, the new Natural World Heritage Site in Honduras promises to help attract more tourists while at the same time preserve this unique natural heritage of humanity. The new biosphere reserve has a total area of 168,634 hectares and includes several municipalities within the departments of Lempira and Ocotepeque.

With this newly declared Natural World Heritage Site, Honduras now has three in total: The Archaeological Park of Copan, which was designated Cultural World Heritage; The Rio Platano Biosphere Reserve and now the Cacique Lempira, Senor de las Montañas Biosphere Reserve, these last two under the category of Natural World Heritage Site.

The Honduran Forestry Conservation Institute was in charge of putting the file together to support the request for the Natural World Heritage Site Status, and is proof of the commitment that the government of Honduras has to preserve its natural heritage. At the time, efforts are under way to propose other Natural Heritage Site in Honduras: one in the Gulf of Fonseca, on the Pacific Coast of Honduras and the other in Atlantida in the North Coast of Honduras. Work has commenced in order to have all the proper documentation by the September 2016 deadline!

Visiting the new Natural World Heritage Site in Honduras is easy! The gateway is through the beautiful colonial city of Gracias, capital of the department of Lempira. There are many different hotels where you can stay while in Gracias. Birding in the area around Celaque is outstanding, and there are many lovely rural colonial villages within the territory!

Best of Honduras, tourism in Honduras CA4 treaty

Do you need some Honduras immigration tips?

Many tourists traveling to Honduras decide to stay longer that the original entry permit granted them, and are faced with the dilemma and uncertainty of what to do. Because of this, I have decided to write about Honduras immigration tips in the hope of making it easier for you to figure things out!

Upon arrival to the country, the immigration authority will usually give you a three month permit to stay in the country. The time immigration gives you is clearly stated on the yellow immigration document that gets stapled to your passport. Usually, you can request for the 90 days maximum and it will be given to you. (Make sure you do not lose this slip, as you will be fined if you do so!).

Honduras immigration tip number one: You can actually get an extension for up to an additional 90 days at no cost. In order to do this, you will need to visit the immigration offices in Tegucigalpa, San Pedro Sula or La Ceiba. The extension will not cost you anything.

Honduras immigration tip number two. You will hear and read that there is a CA4 agreement that will require for you to leave the territory of the CA4 treaty in order to get an additional period of time to stay in Honduras. The CA4 territory includes the countries of Guatemala, El Salvador, Nicaragua and of course Honduras. According to this treaty, the area id considered as one larger region and travelers could only stay a total of 3 months (plus a 90 day extension) within the area. For travelers and nonresident foreigners in Honduras, this meant that they would have to go to Belize, Mexico or Costa Rica before they could come back into the CA4 territory. When the CA4 treaty was functioning, you would not get an exit stamp on your passport when leaving one country and you would not get an entry stamp on your passport for the new country you were entering, this because the region was one and only one and you were already in it.

After the 2009 political crisis in Honduras, parts of the treaty where unofficially dismissed, so now when you enter Honduras over land coming in from any of the neighboring countries, you will get an exit stamp when you leave that country and an entry stamp when you enter Honduras. What this means for the traveler who is spending more time in Honduras is that he can travel to anyone of the neighboring countries, spend 72 hours outside Honduras and re enter Honduras for an additional maximum time of 6 months.

Honduras immigration tip number three: The new immigration system that is in place in the country means that the information regarding when you arrived is readily available online to the immigration authorities. If you overstay, you will be required to pay a fine. The good news is that this fine can be paid within the airport facility, so it will not delay your trip, unless however you cannot pay the fine! Make sure that you arrive with extra time at the airport if you know that you have overstayed in the country to insure that you do not end up missing your flight!

I hope you find these Honduras immigration tips helpful!

Do you ever wonder how life innkeeping in Honduras might be?

Although I have been involved in tourism for over 30 years, with over two thirds of them in Honduras, I did not have any hands on experience as an innkeeper. After buying a lovely property in the Cangrejal River Valley 16 years ago, I started planning a home to live in. The requirements were simple: I wanted something with some “sense of place”, with spacious verandah’s overlooking the Cangrejal River and Pico Bonito National Park. (Nombre de Dios National Park did not exist back then). I needed to make a design that would allow me not to need air-conditioning, so high ceilings and cross ventilation where a must. An interior courtyard was also on the wish list, so as I got out a piece of paper and started making some drawings for the architect I had hired, one thing became apparent: it was going to be a huge house…

One thing led to another, and soon we had decided that we would build our dream home and use the extra bedrooms as a bed and breakfast in La Ceiba. After, all Soledad, my lovely wife had worked at the Hotel Marina Copan in Copan Ruinas for many years and was a great hostess. As we moved into our unfinished home, Honduras came to an important crossroad in its recent history, and then President Zelaya was literally thrown out of the country, creating a serious political crisis that affected tourism to Honduras. No doubt that these were the wrong days to start a bed and breakfast and start a new life innkeeping in Honduras! Or was it?

On the brightside, when we finally did open our doors in 2012, we were allowed a soft opening and had a chance to learn more about innkeeping in Honduras. Our business is slowly, but steadily growing at La Villa de Soledad B&B, and more and more tourists from around the World have chosen us as the place to stay in when visiting La Ceiba and the wonderful Pico Bonito National Park.

Incredibly, we have few guests that are Honduran. It seems that what we offer is not what they want, however, what we offer is fortunately very attractive to the international traveler coming through Honduras. We are the ideal location to Relax in Nature, reconnect with yourself and enjoy nature at its fullest. You can tailor make your visit at La Villa de Soledad to be an adventure filled holiday, a nature retreat, or a bit of both.

Designed by Honduran architect Mauricio Castaneda, La Villa de Soledad is the perfect setting for innkeeping in Honduras. Just this week we had a couple from the United Kingdom, Francoise & Trevor Goul-Wheeker who are experienced World travelers tell us that they had been in many lovely, luxury hotels and inns worldwide, but had never encountered a couple that took better care of their guests! Now is that a compliment or what?

Innkeeping in Honduras has been a lot of fun, and given us the opportunity to meet wonderful adventurers from around the World. Guests from afar as Australia, New Zealand and Singapore, as well as from throughout Europe and of course, North America, have passed through our inn, shared their experiences and provided us with the opportunity to meet good people from around the world that we would have never met otherwise. Innkeeping in Honduras has been a wonderful experience that provides unique moments on a regular schedule. Yes looking back at that moment when we decided we would build a Bed and Breakfast, was definitely a moment of genius that has provided us with a fantastic way of meeting great and interesting people and making a living out if! Innkeeping in Honduras is without doubt one of the best decisions we have taken during our lives!

Best of Central America, Best of Honduras, Best of La Ceiba, hotels in la ceiba, tourism in Honduras flashpacking in Honduras.

Are you thinking or traveling through Central America? Perhaps you are the perfect candidate to do some flashpacking in Central America!

As we grow, we slowly change, many times, we are not even aware of the fact that we have changed, until we take some time to recall past experiences that we fully enjoyed, but would probably not enjoy doing them again as we get older. Travel, is certainly one those instances, where our preferences change as time goes by. The romantic days of traveling with a backpack and meeting fun people from around the world with whom we instantly made friendships will always follow us throughout our travel plans, however, sharing dorm rooms, bathrooms, and that general lack of private space suddenly seems somewhat lackluster for our current travel style.

It is time then, to become a flashpacker, and there are few places in the world that are better for flashpacking in Central America than Honduras! In general terms, a flashpacker is a traveler that refuses to give up his convenient backpack, loves to travel to far out places, and mingle with the local communities to live life changing experiences whilst traveling. So far, flashpacking and backpacking seem synonymous huh? Well, more or less, because the flashpacker is not willing to spend the night roughing it out in a hostel, sharing a room and a bath with other travelers. He has become somewhat picky, and is looking for place to stay in that has some “sense of place” a character of its own, and offers an experience in itself. According to Shivya Nath, an award winning travel blogger who is native to India, flashpacker is a “new term that’s doing the rounds in the travel circuit these days; it means a traveller who’s neither a backpacker nor a luxury traveller, but seeks value for money experiences.”

Shivya is an experienced traveler, author of a travel blog called “The Shooting Star” that recently travelled through Central America. For Honduras, she choose two different destinations as part of her flashpacking in Central America tour: The Cangrejal River Valley and the lovely Bay Island of Guanaja. You can read about her experiences in her blog page in the Honduras section.

There are of course, many different destinations where you can enjoy a great experience within Honduras as you to your flashpacking in Central America trip, however there is no doubt that the Cangrejal River Valley, near La Ceiba is one of the best options out there. Unique, award winning properties with a sense of place, such as La Villa de Soledad B&B are a magnificent addition to an already unique destination. Options available within the area include white water rafting, zip line canopy tours, waterfall descents and rappelling, hot springs, the unique Garifuna Culture and of course the magnificent Pico Bonito National Park, Nombre de Dios National Park, the Cuero y Salado Wildlife Refuge and the Cayos Cochinos Marine Reserve.

Few places in the region will offer you better options for a unique flashpacking in Central America trip! Go ahead, set your vacations dates up and book now for a vacation that will change the way you see Honduras and Central America!

Interested in a few tips about backpacking in Honduras?

Honduras, just as all of Central America, is a great destination for backpackers. Every year, thousands of tourists backpack throughout Central America, and the number is just growing and growing. It’s interesting to note that although we usually think of backpackers as young tourists who are always looking for the best deal, wanting to stretch their cash as far as they possibly can and who will not spend on any frills. The truth is that there are more and more backpackers who are middle aged and even seniors, some are traveling along, many with their couples and there are even a few of them who do so with their families! While they are on a budget, they all have a credit card and do spend on comfort from time to time.

Backpacking in Central America offers great opportunities for unique experiences, and despite what you read in all of the travel warnings, it is actually quite safe to do so. Lately, there are more and more tourists backpacking in Honduras, and there is a good reason for it! Honduras, together with Nicaragua, offer great backpacking destinations at affordable prices. While places like Panama, Costa Rica and Belize have become more and more expensive, Honduras is still very, very affordable. Best of all, tourists are welcome in Honduras, and the more you get away from the big cities, the more friendly people get!

In the last year, we have had three different travel bloggers who visited us at La Villa de Soledad, and each of them was carrying their backpack. I found that while they usually go out for the more budget hostel stays, they also love to give themselves a break and “splurge” from time to time, and if you are backpacking in Honduras there are many different places where you can splurge at affordable costs for unique properties that are truly priceless!

Each of the three travel bloggers who stopped by La Villa de Soledad for a few days while backpacking in Honduras wrote about their experiences in Honduras in their blogs: The first one, Travel blogger Johnny Ward has a blog called onestep4ward. The second travel blogger that came our way was Jonny Blair from Dontstopliving. The last of the three travel bloggers that were backpacking in Honduras and stayed with us is Shivya Nath, a dynamic young woman from India who has a true talent for travel writing. She has an outstanding travel blog called the shooting star.

There are many different unique places to visit while backpacking in Honduras. Best of all, you will find many authentic, charming hostels, hotels, guest houses and bed and breakfasts that will provide great service at a fair price. Don’t let those exaggerated travel warnings by the US state department keep you from having a great backpacking in Honduras experience! Come and see for yourself how beautiful, safe and friendly Honduras really is!

Historic: UNWTO Secretary General visits Honduras!

Last week, Dr. Taleb Rifai, Secretary General of the World Tourism Organization (UNWTO) made a historic visit to Honduras. His tour of Honduras included time in Tegucigalpa, Roatan, La Ceiba, Copan Ruinas and Gracias. One of the most significant moments of his visit took place during his stay at La Ceiba, where he was invited to a luncheon at the Lodge at Pico Bonito, the premier eco lodge in Honduras. The luncheon was offered by Canaturh La Ceiba, and was attended by the Secretary General Dr. Taleb Rifai, as well as by Mr. Carlos Vogeler, director for the Americas at the UNWTO, the Dean at the National Autonomous University of Honduras, Dr. Julieta Castellanos, Mr. Norman Aguilar, Honduras ambassador to Spain, Mr. Emilio Silvestri, director of the Honduras Institute of Tourism and Pamy Marinakys, National President of CANATURH. The four mayors of Atlantida, Mr. Mario Fuentes of Tela, Mr. Carlos Aguilar of La Ceiba, Dr. Noe Guardado of Jutiapa and Mr. Mario Melendez of El Porvenir were all present at the event.

During the exclusive luncheon, John Dupuis, president of Canaturh La Ceiba offered a toast for Atlantida, the new destination that includes the above mentioned municipalities, that he considers the most complete and authentic destination in Central America, offering World Class diving, 8 National Parks or protected areas and the Garifuna culture, declared by the UNESCO as an Intangible World Heritage asset.

One of the highlights was when Dr. Taleb Rifai spontaneously offered a short speech, congratulating Honduras for being the third country in the World to establish a UNWTO sustainable tourism observatory, after China and Greece. This means that Honduras is actually leading in the Americas in this important effort to promote sustainable tourism! The observatory, which will function out of the UNAH – Curla campus in La Ceiba, will measure over 160 factors of how tourism impacts on the environment, local economies, society as well as the effect it can have in the reduction of poverty. Dr. Julieta Castellanos, the Dean at the UNAH will be the enthusiastic leader of this new observatory.

This is the first time that a UNWTO Secretary General visits Honduras, however, Dr. Taleb Rifai was so impressed with Honduras, that he pledged he will be back next year with his family on a vacation!

The official commitment on behalf of Honduras was stamped in Tegucigalpa by President Hernandez himself, after accepting the open letter from the UNWTO and signing the “UNWTO Golden Book” making Honduras the sixtieth country in the World to commit to the development of tourism as an important tool to promote development and reduce poverty.

We congratulate La Ceiba, its chamber of tourism, and the CURLA branch of the National Autonomous University of Honduras for such an important milestone on behalf of La Ceiba, Atlantida and Honduras!

Do you have an itch to explore the dense Central America tropical jungles?

Central America and tropical jungles have been together for as long as we can recall. One of the first adventurers into the Central America tropical jungles was John Lloyd Stephens, that famous explorer who visited Central America in the first half of the XIX century in search of the lost cities of the Mayas. His travels were immortalized in the magnificent book titled Incidents of Travel in Central America. Stephens, together with his travel partner Frederick Catherwood both described magnificent sites lost deep in the Central America tropical jungles. Since then, foreign adventurers have visited the expansive Central American tropical jungles in search of an adventure of a lifetime.

Central America today does not have the huge expanses of tropical jungles it did over a century and half ago, so despite the fact that travel is much easier, affordable and faster, you must go a bit further to find the best Central America tropical jungles.

So where are the best preserved Central America tropical jungles? The Caribbean coast of Central America is far more humid and rainy that the Pacific coast. Because of this, if you are looking for authentic tropical rainforests with dense jungles, you must seek for them on the Caribbean coast of Central America.

The largest expanses of Central America tropical jungles can be found in Honduras and Nicaragua. In Honduras, the Rio Platano Biosphere Reserve, and in Nicaragua, the Rio Indio Biosphere Reserve are the two largest, best preserved expanses of Central America tropical jungles to be found. One of the reasons that these two areas are so well preserved is their relative isolation. Getting to them is hard, there are no roads, and you will find that accommodations in the area range from extremely basic to nonexistent. This means you must carry all of your required needs with you: tent, food, water, etc. There are a few tour operators that specialize in trips to these remote Central America tropical jungles, and perhaps the most experienced of all is La Moskitia Eco-Aventuras.

A much more accessible option can be found in Atlantida. Atlantida is the new upcoming destination in Honduras, and offers easy access to some of the most magnificent Central America tropical jungles! Pico Bonito National Park is a rugged, mountainous park that is located just 10 miles from the Caribbean coast. This means that you can have spectacular views of the coast from the mountains, which reach up to an altitude of over 8,000 feet above sea level! Here you can find the unique Cangrejal River Valley, which provides for a natural border between Pico Bonito National Park and Nombre de Dios National Park. The Cangrejal River valley offers many different adventure activities, including World class white water rafting, waterfall descents and canyoning, zip line canopy tours and outstanding hiking. Best of all, you will find a variety of options where you can stay and enjoy the rainforests of Pico Bonito and Nombre de Dios, some of the best Central America tropical jungles to be found.

One of these lodges is La Villa de Soledad a lovely boutique bed and breakfast that offers world class comfort that naturally blends into the tropical rainforests. There is no doubt that Atlantida offers the best option to enjoy Central America tropical rainforests, and that La Villa de Soledad is the perfect place to relax in nature and make the best of these fabulous Central America tropical rainforests!

Best of Central America, tourism in Honduras Why should I visit Honduras, Why should one visit Honduras, Why should someone visit Honduras

Why Visit Honduras? Planning your next vacations? Here are some tips of why Honduras is a great option.

As you are planning your next vacation, if you are considering Honduras as a destination, you will regularly get a question from just about anyone: Why visit Honduras? The question of course is cast in an effort to convince you that you should not plan a trip to this lovely country. The possibility of you being hard headed and stubborn can well be the answer to the why visit Honduras question, however there are many, many good reasons why you should. Here are just a few:

Over one million tourists set their feet in Honduras last year, and they all enjoyed themselves and found the country to be friendly, beautiful and safe. Many of these tourists are actually planning their next trip to Honduras, as they found the country to be safe and inviting!

There is an adventurer in most of us. This is why a traveler chooses to visit Central America, because it is still off the beaten path, you can still live genuine, authentic experiences during your travels to this part of the World. If you are looking for a vacation where everything is preset, calculated to the last minute, and everything will go exactly as planned, I suggest a trip to Disneyworld or a guided tour to Europe. Why visit Honduras? Because Honduras is authentic and genuine, because its people are friendly and welcoming, because you will live an experience that you will cherish for a long time…

Honduras is the least visited country in Central America, and as such, you will not be overrun by tourists. Nothing worse that arriving at a remote location and finding it has been turned into a tourist trap! In Honduras, a visit to the Copan Archaeological site will be a magical experience, much unlike it is when you visit the Archaeological site of Chichen Itza in the Yucatan and find thousands of visitors touring the site. Why visit Honduras? Because you can dive the reefs off the Bay Islands or Utila, Guanaja, Roatan and Cayos Cochinos and you will not be overtaken by swarm of divers all trying to take in the beauty of the barrier reef like you will find in Cozumel.

Honduras has some magnificent National Parks. The destination known as Atlantida offers a total of 8 protected areas / national parks within its realm, and here, you will enjoy different habitats without the hordes of tourists hiking the trails as you will find in Costa Rica.

Hopefully by now, the answer to why visit Honduras has been answered. However if you still have some doubts, I can add a couple more: Honduras is affordable. Much more affordable that Guatemala, El Salvador, Belize, Costa Rica and Panama. Your dollar or euro will go a lot further in Honduras than in the rest of the above mentioned countries.

Honduras also has a variety of boutique small bed and breakfasts and inns that offer outstanding service, a good deal for your buck, and easy access to different activities. A perfect example is La Villa de Soledad B&B, a boutique bed and breakfast located in the Cangrejal River Valley, just outside of La Ceiba and adjacent to Pico Bonito National Park. Awarded the 2015 tripadvisor travelers choice award for a second year in a row, La Villa de Soledad offers the perfect setting for and adventure vacation, for relaxed escape to the tropical rainforests of Central America or a combination of both!

Honduras has the highest percentage of bilingual English – Spanish speaking people in the Spanish speaking countries in Central America. This means that even if you do not have the domain over Spanish as a language, you are surely to find someone along the road that will help you out. So why visit Honduras? Because your dollar will go further, because you will find friendly English speaking people to help you out, because it is not a tourist trap and above all, because you will be safe, just as the over one million tourists that visit Honduras every year. Come, have the vacation of your lifetime, and you will find yourself asking why did I not visit Honduras before instead of why visit Honduras!
