If you want to see a great deal in a limited amount of time during your next vacation, Central America is the perfect destination. Because of the region's relatively short distances between sights, two weeks is sufficient period of time for travelers to enjoy a diverse array of attractions. Here, we've compiled several tried-and-true itineraries for you to peruse. Adjust them as you like; however, always remember to figure in travel time between sights!
