So you’re looking for the BEST Central America Around The World (RTW) itinerary through Central America?
Well you’ve come to the right place. We’ve literally spent hundreds of hours analyzing and figuring this all this out.
So what is “Air-Backpacking”? It basically combines taking cheap budget flights around the world as you backpack through countries. So you basically don’t just rely on land transfers (ie. buses, vans, trains and walking/hiking)

So we’ve basically done all the research for you and here’s one of the best Around The World (RTW) itineraries out there.

When coming up with this itinerary these are the factors that we analyzed were:
- Months with Temperatures that are not too extreme (Typically between 70° to 85° Fahrenheit (21-30° Celsius))
- Months with Least Rain/Snow & Precipitation in the Country
- Months with Least Wind
- Least Crowded Months (Though sometimes this is impossible to avoid).
- Cheap Air Transfers Between Previous and Next Countries
- Proximity of Previous and Next Countries
